Hidden In Mists

There are quite a few things in life that are 'an acquired taste.' Well, that's the phrase that is usually applied to them. How does one acquire a favorable regard towards what might ostensibly be horrible, though? Or something that apparently, by nature seems quite repulsive?

I mean, here we are going to move into some once again, fairly arcane understandings, things that are not generally accepted in the ordinary mind, and certainly not commonly held perspectives.

Believe me, black truffles and roast chicken in a simple
sandwich with quality mayonnaise, is not for everyone!
You're not going to find it on many - if any - of the First Class
menus on even the most expensive airlines. A lot of
people don't like truffles.

There are still those extraordinarily rich people left somewhere in the world - not all in the same place, that's for certain - who have what in the old days used to be known as background.

You see it's really a preposterous notion to have someone - let's say, a failed footballer - turn their hand to epicurean-ism, and be believed by those with background. Nevertheless, in the modern era, such ex-footballers have made (or so we are led to believe by the Goldman Sachs-owned media facades) countless millions by chopping up some lettuce and chives and shrimp and rapidly plating-up and serving the consumer.

But tomorrow morning, China will have lost a few dozen billionaires to their declining 'financialized' economy, Dubai and Saudi Arabia (aka Londonistan) will have lost several dozen more oil trillionaires due to the severely declining oil price, and if Bernie Sanders wins the White House in the USA, there will be a few Manhattan pavements dressed in blood.

Background takes you the whole round trip without the disasters which await the young money.

When you leave the planet on your final journey, and travel past the Moon to seek your 'star' in the heavens (which is where souls with potential of saving go), you may, if you have the necessary background, comprehend which guide to acquire, in order to reach your happiest destination.

I shall let you in on a little secret... Some go on the long trip all right, and they make it a round trip and end up in the so-called Mount Meru - which in Vedic knowledge is not exactly totally a place observable on the simple physical plane, which is not to say that it isn't here physically, or actually; because it is. But it is hidden behind thick mists.

You need to already know a lot, to discover a lot in this Universe!

Ayurveda means - life knowledge.

There are many materialistic thinkers, deeply filled with a lot of factual detail too, who will never get to visit these places that are hidden behind the mists. There are a great many magical words and concepts which require to be solidly and firmly fixed into your consciousness before you can locate the mysterious passage-ways, the crevasses through which it is possible for you to gain entrance into these special places.

What is the most fascinating, most exciting, most thrilling, most pleasurable, most most pleasant, most desirable experience that money can buy...?

Is it this:

At a cost of 5 million bucks, there are quite a few in
London, Dubai, Geneva..

If you know any Dubai rich kids you will be familiar with their favorite word - 'gorrrrjess.' And that's what they think about these sorts of trinkets - although I wonder whether they are talking about the price tag; it seems to be the thing that turns them on the most about anything, really. Not that this car is not one of the cleverer of these old hat wedge super-car shapes of the pre-oil crisis Seventies. 5 million dollars of cash in US currency does not fit into the boot, such as it sort of is, of this conveyance.

Or, the greatest experience that you can have, more like this:

Alas though, I know the human mind all too well, and I can hear resonating echoes of 'I want both.'

When the loud thunder breaks into the jungle silence, afterwards, you need to be here, before you can get there - if you know what I mean.
