Ok. Just going to throw in my 2 cents if thats alright
Ignoring something because it seems unpleasant or doesn't make you feel good enough... now what is that?
It might not 'resonate' that the world is not a happy place nowadays. And hasn't been for as long back as we can go in recorded history. Just slowly getting worse, in different ways.
That doesn't mean to become part of the problem, but is putting oneself above others (i.e. "I am enlightened, I am such a good person", etc) really part of the solution? I think not, quite the opposite in fact.
Maybe you think I'm way off on this, but this is how new agers seem to me often times.
Bigotry and dogmatic BS is present on BOTH sides of the aisle, recognize that at least.
