Metaphor
"Her boyfriend added, 'Consciousness is its own economy.'"
Metaphor in Context
She and her boyfriend serve the ayahuasca--"divine consciousness in liquid form"--at ceremonies in New York, Cape Town, Las Vegas, Bali. They showed me pictures of themselves harvesting plants in a verdant Hawaiian jungle, looking radiantly happy. I asked if they made a living this way. "We manifest abundance wherever we go," she told me. Her boyfriend added, "Consciousness is its own economy."
