For lack of a better word to describe how I experience life, I also use "spirit" to mean "all of me," and in this sense, I resonate with "spiritual enlightenment is the only one true enlightenment."

Our language reveals our beliefs in the possibility of experiencing life in different and separate ways, namely, physically, emotionally, psychologically and spiritually, though I cannot imagine any one experience I have to not be a total experience that encompasses all these four realms and more that I don't have words for. Nevertheless, I am also witnessing the collective shifting to a more integrated experience of self. I feel that I am living in one of the most exciting times of transformation, where we question everything from God, to aliens, to money, to climate change.

How are #Nostr and #Bitcoin a part of this transformation? I appreciate the discussion. 🙏

Side note:
In Chinese and Japanese language, one of the ideograms that represent "think" is 思. The top part of the character 田 means "paddy fields" and 心 means "heart". In these languages, "thinking" is an activity that involves the heart. Did this character come into being because "thinking" for the ancient Chinese is what is feels like when one is contemplating with the heart while looking at the paddy fields in the distance? Mmm... I can feel that. 🌾❤️😊
