This is a fun video that seems to bring together many concepts of physics, those concepts existing in ancient texts such as Kabbalah, Vedic Texts, and the Gnostic Christian writings, an understanding of consciousness, the devious planning and plotting of secret societies throughout history to keep this knowledge from being realized by the self, synchronicity, frequency resonance, theories on the different dimensions, etc.. etc.. It seems the purpose of the video is to push the viewer to understand that we are all the same being/universe experiencing itself thought he perception of others as well as how to manifest our own desired outcomes using your consciousness.
That is clearly up to the viewer to decide and or accept. Concepts such as assumption existing on the fifth dimension and how thought operates at the frequency of possibility, feeling operates at frequency of certainty. It is pretty far out, stuff. The first video is an AI generated information dump relating to quantum physics and esoteric beliefs allegedly practiced by the occult and secret societies who cater to the leadership castes and manage society.
The second video is a related personal understanding and experience testimony by a behavioral specialist and his own studies since childhood into his career because there should be a human testimony to go along with the information dump.
Some of the referenced names include Carl Sagan, John Rockefeller, Neville Goddard, Jesus Christ and a handful of others.
Me? Well in the last couple years I have been drifting to these understandings myself; lets just say it is generating favorable results. Whether anyone wants to consciously accept that is the manifestation of reality by the conscious mind or just a sudden random pattern of coincidence and good luck is up to the ego I suppose. I just want folks to operate on higher frequencies so that the species can cooperate better. It is hard though, the 3 dimensional world is always throwing roadblocks and corrupting frequencies in the way, perhaps as a test of resolve and focus, or perhaps as directed weapons by third parties who can measure people who operate on this frequency and intentionally seek to destabilize them to maintain dominance and power.
If I were to try and explain any more of these videos I would end up just filling pages with walls of text nobody would read due to algorithmic programming killing attention spans and interrupting the dopamine fixation. So just leave it on in the background and listen while your cleaning your house, cooking a meal, separating your laundry or washing the dishes. You only need to receive the sound waves, the light is not as important, but certainly complementing. Being deaf must really suck!

Great information mate. Thanks.
Even though I heard all this for the first time in my life, deep down it felt as if I had always known it, almost to the point where I knew what was the phrase that was coming next.
I totally agree that the veil is becoming thinner and thinner. The machine is bleeding to death, thankfully enough.
There is one rule that I know of, babies. God damn it, you've got to be kind.

This post was last modified: Today, 02:50 AM by Compendium. 
The first video is using actual concepts taught within many mystery traditions, but whoever made the video doesn't fully understand them. Likely because they have never been through a form of initiation themselves, they only know what they had been told or read
I say this because of specific new age spiritual terminology they have included in their video, which runs contrary to what is taught in the ancient mystery schools and orders
At the start they speak of "the 5th dimension" as if this is a state of being one can achieve or is subject to. But the very basis of the knowledge he is speaking about, is built on a system of very precise understanding of the "dimensional" structure of our physical reality, referred to in modern traditions like Freemasonry as "degrees". But degrees were originally far more than just stages of philosophical alignment, as taught within the Masonic traditions today. In the ancient teachings and traditions, "degrees" were the logical unfolding and exact biological and geometric structure of creation
The reason this is important, is basically this:
There are 14 dimensional "degrees" within just the mind of the perceiver
The Freemasons call this "the Lodge of perfection". My tradition calls it "The Philosophers Stone"
These 14 degrees, are the minimum number of "dimensions" required for one sphere to exist, inside of another, in a way that it can relate to, and recognise itself
From the first sphere (3 degrees) comes the primary ability for 1 internal (Entered Initiate) and 2 external (Fellowcraft) to exist, and be defined as seperate considerations to each other through 3 - direction and vectoring (Master Mason)
That's 3 fundamental dimensions, which can only exist within a sphere (start of Torus, Torah, Horus, Taurus). Without these dimensions coming first, angle and triangulation cannot exist. Width, depth and height cannot exist, because there is no defined conditions within which they can logically exist
Then we have triangulation. The triangle within the outside circle of the Philosophers Stone symbol. Angle can now exist. Hence the symbols 4, 5, which lead to the combination of both, in the 6th symbol
This is the second "fall" of Cycle (Christ) within the dimensional phase of physical reality. Meaning, it is second point in the sequence of 14 degrees of the Lodge of perfection, or Philosophers Stone, where the degrees "cross" each other
These crossings happen at 3, 6 and 9. Exactly as Tesla spoke of
For some reason, the Catholic Churches version of this sequence (the stations of the Cross, meaning "the sequence of the crossing of dimensional phase") has mixed to degrees/stations 6 and 7, putting the second "fall" of Christ/Cycle in 7th, when it should be in 6th (interesting, that kids today love their "6 / 7" saying, while moving their hands up and down, as if they are balancing the two on scales)
Anyways, then we have the square inside the triangle. That's because within the geometry of the square, we now not only have the ability to define angle, but the ability to define relation through angle. These degrees are 7 expand, 8 contract, 9 turn left (to source), 10 turn right (away from source)
If you compare the philosophical structure of the Masonic degrees like the Scottish Rite, you will see that names like "Intendant of the building" for the 8th dimension, are very literally illustrating what "contraction" does. When one contacts inwardly, they are very literally attending to (or focusing) within the structure. The (scared) phonetic of this structure which relates the dimensional degrees 80-89, is "AT". The fundamental of contraction and focus within the structure
The 9th (3rd fall) is the first time that the dimensional structure turns in to relate to itself as (and) source
Then, we have the second circle/sphere of the Philosophers Stone symbol, drawn inside the square
This is 11 - Inside, 12 - Outside, 13 - In-between. Now not only can the angle/triangle relate itself in the square, but now it can relate itself as "something inside/outside/in-between something else". One sphere, relative to another secondary sphere
This system is bi-directional. Existing within cyclical octaves of frequency. Meaning that dimensions give you the ability to perceive yourself as "something inside something else" at the exact same time (and within the exact same structure) that you can perceive yourself as "something outside of something something else". The patterns of the octave are recursive out of necessity of the equilibrium (Elohim) of the structure. Which again, can only exist within a Torus, Horus, Torah, Taurus. As it is the only shape where you can be facing outwards at something else, and also be facing inward at yourself, at the same time as you can face inward at yourself and be facing outwards as something else, within layered closed cycle and cosmology. This concept is considered dangerous by the Church and suppressed, because it would mean we are all "children of the source". Not just Jesus. The musical version of which is the 13 tones of the musical scale (this part is described in detail in the correctly translated version of the book of Revelation, which describes the 7 tones and 5 semi-tonal increments and things like music in great detail)
The 14 degree is the relation of the recurrence inwardly/outwardly/through and within the structure
This is why the Freemasons call it "Lodge of perfection". It is the resounding of recurring structure within a perfectly balanced system
We call it "mind". As it is the ability for the light of the source from the sun itself, to turn and recognise itself within flesh, and as an individual soul
This is 14 dimensions, just to have the ability to perceive self and structure
That is without the structure itself
We then have "the Rose Cross"
15 - External time to you - East
16 - External time from you - West
17 - Internal time to you (Bloodline) - North
18 - Internal time from you (Bloodline) - South
19 is introspection. Now not only does mind recognise itself, but now it turns inward to regard itself and consider
See what I am getting at now?
This is 19 dimensions. And we haven't even gotten to our ability to recognise "another" outside of self
So what is this "5th dimension" they are speaking of in the video?
How could it possibly be the 5th dimension, when they haven't even yet defined the structure within which they can exist?
20-29 are degrees of "the fellow" or "other". Your ability to recognise and define another person and/or position
30-39 degrees, you are able to regard both yourself and the person
33 is what it is, because it defines your ability to reflect upon another. You as they, they as you
That's 33 dimensions, just to recognise another person or life, as you recognise your own
Which is the concept they then go on to speak about in this video
But, again, they are speaking as if it is something they had been told about, or read about. They way they word it, makes it very obvious that they have not been through initiation themselves to understand it
They then go on conflate this with misunderstood ascension concepts. "Control your reality", etc
If you need to "control" your reality, then you in no understand initiation, let alone the secondary process of Ascension
If you speak of "controlling":something, even subjectively, it means your mind still views the world linearly, as something you are subject to and separate to
The two-headed Eagle does not view the world this way, and does not speak in terms of linear projection and influence
What they then describe as synchronicities, are conciliatory symptoms. They are the things that happen to people prior to initiation. They are not the completion of something. They are not even the beginning. They are more like an invitation to begin
When the woman starts talking, she is again speaking of real concepts of initiation, but again, using linear perception
It's probably a good place for most people to start
But one very important distinction I would point out, is that there is no real nefarious plot to keep this information from those who would seek it
Any one can find any of the knowledge, if they seek it
The main reason it isn't shared openly, is because nobody would listen, and even fewer would care if they did
In my tradition we have a saying:
"You cannot force a baby without teeth to chew steak
But you can feed them milk"
Or "You can chew it for them, to have a taste"
What this means is, even if we were to spend years telling you everything we understand from our initiation, you would not understand it
Not because you incapable of doing so, but because understanding can only come through experience
Without this, all you have is knowledge. There are dimensional aspects to initiation, which cannot be taught any other way. This is by design and intention, so the abilities which come with such understanding, cannot be achieved by those who have not proved themselves worthy of them
It means the process cannot be faked
You cannot even enter the underworld to become an initiate, unless you prove you are doing so for selfless reasons, such as love or the greater good
There are "gatekeepers" who protect such paths
If you try passing into the underworld without the proper "riches" (meaning of heart and character, not actual riches as is commonly misinterpreted), then you will not pass the gates. You will simply die
Only those whose heart and intent can be weighed pure, return to this world as initiates
Think of it like this ...
How many people do you personally know, that you would trust with the ability to steer the flow of probability and possibility in this world, by their mere presence or consideration?
How many people would you trust to "control their reality", or others, to use the words of the video you posted?
If you can name a single person in this world, including yourself, you are either foolhardy, or lying to yourself
There is very literally only a handful of people on the Earth that could ever be trusted with the alignment of Ascension
Everyone else would misuse or abuse it. Every single one
There aren't even that many more, that can be trusted as initiates
A genuine dimensional initiate gets angry, and people, animals and plants around them die
They get sad and cry uncontrollably, and it rains in the middle of summer
Are these the types of abilities you want afforded to those who have not earned them? Or those who cannot control their thoughts and emotions?
Illuminated mystery order iitiates go through literal hell, for 14 years, being tortured in ways most can't even imagine, by entities that most don't even know exist. So they can Master their mind, heart and body
And it is only through this that the things being suggested in that video truly become possible
But it is not through learning to "control" as suggested. Rather it is through learning to be one with the flow of probability (Prophecy) and possiblity (Prayer)
Those who fight the tide, drown. Those who swim within it, easily make it shore
"Control" is an illusion of linear perception. One that is actually completely unnecessary, when you understand how to view the world through a cyclical (Christ) conscious
You steer probability and possibility. You do not control them
The important part of what I'm explaining, is for you to recognise that the fears that most people have towards initiates of mystery orders is unfounded
Most of this fear, exists only in the hearts of those who fear such things
There may indeed be nefarious groups and individuals out there who seek to control and possess through knowledge. But they are not actual initiates or those referred to "Illuminated"
You cannot bring the light, unless you genuinely are the light
Meaning, they can pretend they have the abilities spoken of within the mysteries. They can allow others to think the have. But the reality is, they do not. The only real "power" or ability they have, is within the linear alignment of their collective, or material means like finances
They cannot steer the world by their mere presence or consideration. They do it through considerable effort, finances and resources
But this is all superficial
They are nobody to be feared. In most cases, they are actually the ones who are most fearful. Because they understand the depth of that which they do not understand. As such, they have some level of respect for what they can and cannot mess with in this world
Which is why many/most of them align the mysteries theologically, or philosophically. Instead of through the original systems of logic and reason
My point is, nobody is trying to keep anything from you. You merely haven't looked in the right places. Or looked with the right intent
Everything is there to be found, if you seek it for the right reasons
The concepts of the video are real. Aything IS possible. In fact, I will tell you with certainty, that things most people think are impossible, are possible. But the really important part within making them possible, is why do you want them or seek them?
And does what you want favour you, or everyone? Does it favour creation, or decay?
Someone who can enamour anyone they please, just by looking them in the eyes, needs to be someone who will never abuse such an alignment. Or take from another, anything that is not theirs to take
The path of decay and self is possible. But it will always end up taking more from you, than you gained through taking
You may gather riches and fame, for instance. But also bring sickness, death and misfortune to everyone and everything around you. And these house of cards always fall. If not in your lifetime, when you leave this world
The balance will always be paid. And it is always paid by those who sought the cost. It cannot possibly be paid by someone else (like Jesus Christ). No matter what anyone tells you
I've left my body and this world, and I can tell you, it is you who will judge yourself. And it is you who will pay your balance to this world
The real path, gives to you, before you even know what it is you need or want
But only after many years of catharsis, purification and cleansing
And it protects you fiercely
This is why genuine initiates were so respected and feared throughout history
Not because of what they would/could do to you ...
But because of what you would/could do to yourself, by disrespecting them, or unjustly targeting or attacking them
People who intentionally conspire to do them harm, inadvertently end up doing themselves harm. Or even dying
The Earth itself protects them like an immune system
The true initiated don't need to "control". The mountains bend for them, without them needing to ask. And most of the time without them even realising

My dopamine fixation comes from exploring these types of topics further and the sound waves don't hold my attention for very long nor does bathing in light, but then I think gaining knowledge or wisdom is warranted first before diving head first into that which may be some sort of collective consciousness and which may turn out that those with the knowledge and bravery to venture into those dimensions may actually be able to control reality within those dimensions.
Some say this reality, this Earth reality, is a school for some and a prison for others.
Some people claim they can enter into other dimensions or states of being such as U.S. military remote viewers, but they only seek to control and not to ascend, so the intention does not allow for ascension, I would hazard a guess.
----
I thought I'd throw in another point of view from the science community.
"Donald Hoffman, a cognitive scientist at the University of California, Irvine, proposes that space-time is a virtual reality headset rather than an objective fundamental reality. He argues that evolution has shaped our senses to act as a user interface optimized for survival, similar to icons on a computer desktop, which conceals the truth of the actual world to prevent cognitive overload.
According to Hoffman’s Interface Theory of Perception, what we perceive as physical objects and the fabric of space-time are merely simplified symbols generated by consciousness. He suggests that consciousness is fundamental, and these "headsets" are tools used by conscious agents to navigate and interact with a deeper reality that exists outside of space and time."

A temporospatial dimension is a direction in which one may measure an offset. A single dimension on its own has no thickness. A dimension is not an alternate 'world' or alternate reality. An alternate 'world', or some hidden alternate reality would require several dimensions to have 'substance'.
Dimensions have mathematical, cartographic, and topographical meaning, but the description of alternate dimensions as if they were alternate worlds seems to have stemmed from 18th century occultists and spiritualists trying to sound 'sciency'.
It is generally accepted in engineering and pre 20th Century physics that there are three spatial dimensions and one temporal dimension to spacetime. By several physical theories, there are either 11 or 27 dimensions to reality, but only the initial 4 are obvious to our senses, the usual explanation is that the higher dimensions are beyond our senses because the are rolled-up at diameters too small for our instruments (their diameter is the Planck length or smaller - the Planck length being the minimum quantum of granularity of reality).
Mathematically and conceptually in information theory, however, there can be unlimited numbers of dimensions.

Yes, LORD JESUS CHRIST tried/tries to alert mankind of existence of an afterlife as did others connected to Sun worship and religion like the Egyptians...
The after-life of the ancient Egyptians was known as the Field of Reeds, a land just like what one knew, save that there was no sickness, no disappointment and, of course, no death.
One lived eternally by the streams and beneath the trees which one had loved so well in one's life on earth.
To reach the eternal paradise of the Field of Reeds, however, one had to pass through the trial by Osiris, Lord of the Underworld and just Judge of the Dead, in the Hall of Truth (also known as The Hall of Two Truths), and this trial involved the weighing of one's heart against the feather of truth.
The Heaviness of the Covetous Heart
One maintained a light heart by embracing gratitude for all one had been given in life and turning aside negative thoughts and energies. Ingratitude was considered a gateway sin that drew one down a dark path toward selfishness and sin. Sins were understood as thoughts and actions contrary to the value of ma'at - harmony - which the white feather symbolized, that separated one from others as well as from the gods. The worst of these sins was covetousness because it expressed ingratitude for the gifts one had been given and illiciit desires for the gifts of another.
The work known as the Instruction of Ptah-hotep (also given as The Maxims of Ptah-hotep, c. 2375-2350 BCE), one of the oldest of the Wisdom Texts of ancient Egypt, expressly warns against covetousness, citing its dangers and consequences:
Quote:If you desire your conduct to be good, to set yourself free from all evil, then beware of covetousness which is an incurable disease. It is impossible to be intimate with it; it makes the good friend bitter, it alienates the trusted employee from his master, it makes bad both the father and the mother, together with the mother's brothers, and it divorces a man's wife...Do not be covetous regarding division [when food or goods are dispensed between you and others] and do not be exacting with regard to what is due to you. Do not be covetous towards your family. (David, 132)
Covetousness made the soul heavy with sin because it encouraged pettiness, jealousy, self-pity and, especially, expressed ingratitude. These sins made impressions on the soul which weighed down the soul's "heart" and made it impossible for one to pass through the Hall of Truth and find paradise. This was a major concern for the ancient Egyptians who understood that their life on earth was only one part of a much longer and grander journey.
The Soul, Sacred Texts, and Prayers
A person's soul was thought to be immortal, an eternal being whose stay on earth was only one part of a much larger and grander journey. This soul was said to consist of nine separate parts: - Khat was the physical body
- Ka was one's double-form
- Ba a human-headed bird aspect which could speed between earth and heaven
- Shuyet was the shadow self
- Akh the immortal, transformed self
- Sahu and Sechem aspects of the Akh
- Ab was the heart, the source of good and evil
- Ren was one's secret name.
All nine of these aspects were part of one's earthly existence and, at death, the Akh (with the Sahu and Sechem) appeared before Osiris in the Hall of Truth and in the presence of the Forty-Two Judges to have one's heart ( Ab) weighed in the balance on a golden scale against the white feather of truth.
The ancient Egyptians recognized that when the soul first awoke in the afterlife it would be disoriented and might not remember its life on earth, its death, or what it was to do next. In order to help the soul continue on its journey, artists and scribes would create paintings and text related to one's life on the walls of one's tomb (now known as the Pyramid Texts) which then developed into the Coffin Texts and the famous Egyptian Book of the Dead.
The Pyramid Texts are the oldest religious works from ancient Egypt dated to c. 2400-2300 BCE. The Coffin Texts developed later from the Pyramid Texts in c. 2134-2040 BCE while the Egyptian Book of the Dead (actually known as the Book on Coming Forth by Day) was created c. 1550-1070 BCE. All three of these works served the same purpose: to remind the soul of its life on earth, comfort its distress and disorientation, and direct it on how to proceed through the afterlife.
Along with these directions, prayers were inscribed on the walls of tombs asking Osiris (and other gods) to show mercy to the soul. Two partially preserved prayers extant today come from the tomb of the mother of the vizier Intefiqer who served under the king Senruset I (r. c. 1971 - c. 1926 BCE) in the period of the Middle Kingdom. The prayers both asked the gods to intercede on her behalf and the latter one, addressed to Osiris, specifically asks him to listen and hear her before judging too quickly:
Quote:Hail to you, O Gold!
May you favor me, since my occupation has been speaking to you!
I will be old and like a miserable one [unless heard]
O Powerful One of my knowing
O Gold at your time of listening, your hour of hearing!
You are green for my request for you!
May you release for me a vizier fair of speech!
You are the one who shall fashion the standard...
It is I which shall give a good traversing of eternity. (Parkinson, 128) The supplicant addresses Osiris as "O Gold" because the gods were thought to have gold skin and the line "you are green for my request for you" references Osiris' green skin (signifying fertility and life) in the underworld. The supplicant asks that a "vizier fair of speech" be released in her so she may eloquently defend her actions in life upon arriving before Osiris in the Hall of Truth.
The Hall of Truth
In the Egyptian Book of the Dead it is recorded that, after death, the soul would be met by the god Anubis who would lead it from its final resting place to the Hall of Truth.
Images depict a queue of souls standing in the hall and one would join this line to await judgment. While waiting, one would be attended to by goddesses such as Qebhet, daughter of Anubis, the personification of cool, refreshing water. Qebhet would be joined by others such as Nephthys and Serket in comforting the souls and providing for them.
When it came one's turn, Anubis would lead the soul to stand before Osiris and the scribe of the gods, Thoth in front of the golden scales. The goddess Ma'at, personification of the cultural value of ma'at (harmony and balance) would also be present and these would be surrounded by the Forty-Two Judges who would consult with these gods on one's eternal fate.
The soul would then recite the Negative Confessions in which one needed to be able to claim, honestly, that one had not committed certain sins. These confessions sometimes began with the prayer, "I have not learnt the things which are not" meaning that the soul strove in life to devote itself to matters of lasting importance rather than the trivial matters of everyday life. There was no single set list of Negative Confessions, however, just as there was no set list of "sins" which would apply to everyone. A military commander would have a different list of sins than, say, a judge or a baker.
The negative declarations, always beginning with "I have not..." or "I did not...", following the opening prayer went to assure Osiris of the soul's purity and ended, in fact, with the statement, "I am pure" repeated a number of times. Each sin listed was thought to have disrupted one's harmony and balance while one lived and separated the person from their purpose on earth as ordained by the gods. In claiming purity of the soul, one was asserting that one's heart was not weighed down with sin. It was not the soul's claim to purity which would win over Osiris, however, but, instead, the weight of the soul's heart.
The 'heart' of the soul was handed over to Osiris who placed it on a great golden scale balanced against the white feather of Ma'at, the feather of truth.
The Judgement of Osiris
The `heart' of the soul was handed over to Osiris who placed it on a great golden scale balanced against the white feather of Ma'at, the feather of truth on the other side. If the soul's heart was lighter than the feather then the gods conferred with the Forty-Two Judges and, if they agreed that the soul was justified, the person could pass on toward the bliss of the Field of Reeds.
According to some ancient texts, the soul would then embark on a dangerous journey through the afterlife to reach paradise and they would need a copy of the Egyptian Book of the Dead to guide them and assist them with spells to recite if they ran into trouble. According to others, however, after justification it was only a short journey from the Hall of Truth to paradise.

The soul would leave the hall of judgment, be rowed across Lily Lake, and enter the eternal paradise of the Field of Reeds in which one received back everything taken by death.
Scholar Rosalie David describes this afterlife realm:
Quote:The underworld kingdom of Osiris was believed to be a place of lush vegetation, with eternal springtime, unfailing harvests, and no pain or suffering. Sometimes called the `Field of Reeds', it was envisaged as a `mirror image' of the cultivated area in Egypt where rich and poor alike were provided with plots of land on which they were expected to grow crops. The location of this kingdom was fixed either below the western horizon or on a group of islands in the west. (160) For the soul with the heart lighter than a feather, those who had died earlier were waiting along with one's home, one's favorite objects and books, even one's long lost pets.
Should the heart prove heavier, however, it was thrown to the floor of the Hall of Truth where it was devoured by Amenti (also known as Amut), a god with the face of a crocodile, the front of a leopard and the back of a rhinoceros, known as "the gobbler". Once Amenti devoured the person's heart, the individual soul then ceased to exist. There was no `hell' for the ancient Egyptians; their `fate worse than death' was non-existence.
The Field Of Reeds & Egyptian Love of Life
It is a popular misconception that the ancient Egyptians were obsessed with death when, in reality, they were in love with life and so, naturally, wished it to continue on after bodily death. The Egyptians enjoyed singing, dancing, boating, hunting, fishing and family gatherings just as people enjoy them today.
The elaborate funerary rites, mummification, and the placement of Shabti dolls were not meant as tributes to the finality of life but to its continuance and the hope that the soul would win admittance to the Field of Reeds when the time came to stand before the scales of Osiris. The funerary rites and mummification preserved the body so the soul would have a vessel to emerge from after death and return to in the future if it chose to visit earth.
One's tomb, and statuary depicting the deceased, served as an eternal home for the same reason - so the soul could return to earth to visit - and shabti dolls were placed in a tomb to do one's work in the afterlife so that one could relax whenever one wished. When the funeral was over, and all the prayers had been said for the safe travel of the departed, survivors could return to their homes consoled by the thought that their loved one was justified and would find joy in paradise. Even so, not all the prayers nor all the hopes nor the most elaborate rites could help that soul whose heart was heavier than the white feather of truth.

It appears the pursuit of wealth only or its misuse and its negative trappings are not the way forward towards ascension.

Jesus teaching: "“And again I say to you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God.”"
Isn't the point there to serve others, share your wealth, and free yourself from the attainment of wealth (greed), possessions and/or control and power?

Buddhist slant:
"Buddha himself did not outright denounce money and material possessions. He simply cautioned against letting such worldly things control, change, and possess us. When greed and hungry desire become us, we lose sight of how we could use these material riches to help the world and humanity at large. That’s when resources like money become evil and destructive."
Buddha advocated for the middle of the road.
Similarly, if one is distracted because of poverty, they may not have the luxury or peace of mind to be able to take the path of ascension.

Taoist slant:
"Taoist philosophy generally views the aggressive pursuit of wealth and status as a distraction from living in harmony with the Tao (the natural way of the universe). While Taoism does not inherently demonize money, it strongly critiques greed, excessive ambition, and the social constructs that equate personal worth with material success. "

"“The vast wealth of the rich does not deceive the poor. Wealth is like salt water the more you drink the thirstier you become.”"

"Once a wealthy man visited a famous Greek philosopher. The latter did not trust the wealthy man so he did not make any special arrangements for his visit.
The philosopher said to the wealthy man:
“Surely you have not come to learn from me but to put me down for my financial situation, am I not right?
The wealthy man replied:
“Had I followed your path in acquiring knowledge I would not have had wealth, a palace, servants, etc.”
At this the philosopher said:
“Regardless of Your material belongings, I am richer than you. I do not need servants to protect me, for I fear no-one including Caesar. Because you are dependent on others you will always be poor. I possess reason, satisfaction and the freedom to think instead of gold and silver, while you waste your time thinking about silver plates.
“My ideas are my vast empire where I live happily, while you spend your lifetime in anxiety and unrest. All that which you possess is worthless to me, but what I possess is abundant for you will never fulfill all your hopes and wants, but my needs are always fulfilled by using my reason.
Surely everyone should rely on knowledge and not on gold and silver; for only the ignorant rely on them."
