Buy in Bulk and Save

"I’m the pharmacist of enlightenment."
The Chemical Buddha wasn't much of a business expert, but he did know the advantages of paying wholesale over retail. Which is why, after years of supporting his local dealer, TCB decided he too could support his habit by becoming a dealer on his own. (In retrospect, this turned out to be a horrible idea because he just used up all of the stuff he had intended to sell. The only way The Chemical Buddha wouldn't do drugs was if there were no drugs in the house.) But before he learned that lesson, TCB rationalized that he would no longer be dependent upon someone else for his mind-altering experiences. In fact, he would be able to better help others open their minds. And the rest is spiritual history.
When will your realize that the student is now the teacher?
When will you start showing others the way instead of depending upon someone else's guidance?
