I’ve seen spiritualists smitten by outerwear, be it robes/begging bowl or suits/expensive brands. While those things are of occasional use in shifting perception, they forget: The soldier makes the uniform, not vice versa. Didn’t Hitler take a Buddhist holy symbol (swastika) and turn it vile? Being hung up on “high/low” vibe objects is a misuse of energy. My approach is to hone my mind and spirit until whatever I touch, whatever I wear, is mistaken by those with less awareness as the source of my clarity.

Except you and I…We both know better.
