“Less is truly more only after years of smoking pot.”
Every spiritual teacher will tell you less is more. The Chemical Buddha suspected that was because they wanted you to have less so they could have more. But the only way less is truly more is by smoking pot. Pot is the only drug reported to have a reverse tolerance. You actually need less of it to get high, as opposed to other drugs which you constantly have to up the dosage for the same result. (Personally, The Chemical Buddha was too fucked up to remember how much pot he needed to get that way. Let alone if he needed less over time.) Most hard core drug users are trying to get back to their first high, which can never be done because there will never be another first time. The same can be said for material possessions, money, square footage, etc. People are always chasing that feeling of the first time and therefore want more, more, more.
What can you not seem to get enough of?
How might having less actually help you appreciate it more and make you life more manageable?
