Maybe not nihilistic but rather dystopian. It brings to mind songs like Bob Dylan's Desolation Row. Noticing and acknowledging that our world is much like Dante's Inferno, doesn't preclude us from salvation. Because, once we know what we are dealing with, the sooner we can decide to act as Casteneda's "impeccable warriors." It's tough to do the right thing, but that is our karma, the necessity to make ourselves useful to people who suffer.
