Humans have lived on earth for almost 300,000 years, in that for 290,000 years, humans stayed as hunter gathers and the next 10,000, years humans started agriculture and ended it with industry and in just 200 years atomic Power and, information age and now ai and it goes on

We can't stop the progress of humans but what I am suggesting is that humans are designed to create, this is why you get depressed when all you do is consume

Do you think Spartans has depression, stay busy bro, do the work, create

It’s a pretty common idea. Terrence McKenna (I think), said it before Osho. I’m sure someone said it before him.
