"But unfortunately, you can't embrace Gaia until you transcend Gaia. Otherwise, you have a mere addiction to the finite realm. You're not embracing it with love; you're embracing it with basically the same addiction you would heroin or any sort of sensory indulgence."
- Ken Wilber
I found this quote in an article I was reading. The whole "Gaia" part wasn't what I found fascinating. It's when you take Gaia out of the sentence and insert any other word. That way it would read as follows:
"But unfortunately, you can't embrace [something] until you transcend [it]. Otherwise, you have a mere addiction to [it]. You're not embracing it with love; you're embracing it with basically the same addiction you would heroin or any sort of sensory indulgence."
Holy pooh, so true.
