True... but in todays world of instant gratification, what would be the
most likely? People spending time and effort reaching T by their own
means, or, buying McT and getting it in doses of 15 minutes with zero
effort?
Actually, I read an article a year ago, about some pirate place in a
basement out side Stockholm where a woman sold McT for therapeutic
purposes, illegally.
And I always think about if the people just get hooked on the experience,
and thereby disregard, _what the experience is leading to_.
I think the buddha warned against psychic powers, healing and stuff,
calling it a distraction from the end goal of enlightenment. Sometimes I
wonder if buddha wouldn't warn against getting hooked on McT as well?
