The Meaning in All Things
When you see a beautiful crystal, it's easy to make more of it than it actually is. You can attach meaning to it. You can talk about subtle energies that nobody can detect, with no scientific instrument, no physics, no math to support them, only abstract ideas.
But if you do that for a beautiful amethyst, you have to do it for an ugly rock. And if you do it for an ugly rock, you have to do it for the most mundane living creatures: the ant, the worm, the fly, the mosquito. You must give them the same mystical value you would give a beautiful crystal.
Otherwise, you are stuck in a foolish paradigm, finding meaning only in the things you choose instead of in all things.
