Yes I think so. Speaking from experience if there is still suffering it can create blind spots because the priority would be it needing to be healed. Then once its taken care of resumes a wider perception.

Hmm. Fear can cause suffering.

How do we know if they are always living as spirits in an advanced world? Are we assuming that. What if they also experience suffering and are doing their best to temper it.

Yeah I can attest to that lol all my attempts have done damage but I'm okay with it. This is what I got to work with and I'll do my best with it.
Nope no grudges here. I try to keep an open mind.
