But to expand on the vibrational aspect: the lower vibrations are more physical and material. It's in the music they listen to. It's their thoughts themselves. It holds them down. Vs spirituality, true consciousness, ascension, etc. Those are high vibrations. That's where creations is. The universe is mind. It's mental. We're getting spiritual here but I'm using terms people more directly understand. You can think of the universe as the mind of "god" himself. We are both a part of "god" severally and the entirety of "god" wholly at the same time. The bible and other religious doctrines are like entry level kindergarten tales about how things actually work. This is what they mean by created in the image and likeness of god. But where "god created everything in 7 days" that's the mind, or simulation if you like, creating with said mind. We can measure brain waves. So it's frequency. Sound/vibration is how creation happens. Now transpose lower vs higher vibrations. Being lower is to be more physical, tied to the 3rd dimension. Higher frequency is to transcend those dimensional barriers and go closer to "god" or mind or the simulation itself.
So poor people are largely stuck in the 3rd dimensional, carnal lifestyle, hunting for their kill, and unable to even conceptualize higher levels of being. Those vibrations are contagious because a part of them resonates with them just like a tuning fork. If you had two forks, and you bang on one at one side of the room, the other fork, if at the same frequency, begins to resonate with it. You can see that experiment if you look it up on youtube. The same applies to people, their minds, etc. So if OP really wants to get to the foundation of the universe, he's got to take a few leaps of faith outside what he may be used to and get into vibration, frequency, and mind.
