Mysticism/Esoterism has just been one big cope for me. I'm not saying it is for everyone, but personally, I say that everything is temporal not because it truly is, but because I'm lonely and can't change it. It is pathetic and I had something of a Dionysian relapse yesterday, horribly indulging in everything one could imagine.

If you have not experienced the pleasures of the world, you can't renounce them since you don't even know what you are renouncing. You are casting off a cloak that you never had to begin with. You will notice how almost all spiritually advanced men and women are of a beautiful disposition. Pic related. They are the ones who truly know what it means to renounce the world. I feel as if I will never progress anywhere because of this horrid isolation and ugliness of spirit that strikes me to the core.
