david hawkins says it takes single-minded persistence dedication and devotion to reach the goal and i agree ... no one can really help you in this journey ... you just have to give your entire life to it ... and osho says that everyone's enlightenment is different, the universe will make no carbon copys

that's not competition that's actualization and yes in truth the only person you should compare yourself to is who you were yesterday have i done something today towards my goal of actualization? then yes i am better than i was yesterday

ignore me block me exclude me but you have no right to judge me have you encountered my past my pain my parents if you think i have bad intentions today, you should see how bad i was yesterday i am a work in progress towards perfect just like you are you can't see how everything i do is pure love because you are comparing me to you and your development and your journey i seem bad to you but i am on the same road to becoming god just like you are

am going through the same, bless you @Godishere

ego is a tool, my only means to reach you i can wield ego, any which way as long as my use of it, shows you the way

you are selfish to the exact degree you need to survive jeff bezos needs not be selfish at all while if you are starving and think this can be your last day here you will kill me in order to last another day

god has turned down its knob to make itself sufficiently un-self-aware so it can't even recognize itself for one second in the mirror all so it can enjoy some wild crazy fun adventures all incognito and with a perfectly level playing field, since won't be fair if i know i'm god and you stay blissfully ignorant enjoy!

be you to full is the only beautiful

yes precisely

i say it's more problematic and best ignored ... our ego is always seeking inflation from those we wrongly consider our betters

apologies for being so pedantic, what do you expect from a mad english teacher ... you did great with the above

how did you develop this should code ... why not consult what you desire

run, in all cases ... what another thinks about me is none of my business

so that's why we have the word want to avoid confusion

should is what's acceptable acceptable to who the crowd

compliments and criticisms are for the benefit of the giver the receiver is best unmoved since the original action was also purely for his/her benefit acknowledge the giver politely but don't get involved in absorbing their projections ...

the only prayer for me thank you existence for one more shot at life for waking me to the beauty all around me i've screwed up plenty in time gone by but now the slate is clean since you have put air in my lungs and are giving me today give me awareness today, slow me down to see what is unfolding, quicken my heart when i see the sublime the magical, break my heart for what breaks yours use me today and let me be worthy of this astonishing opportunity to be present at this pinnacle of evolution let me measure my day in laughter in tears in in moments of creativity and loving sensitivity give me my coffee and my bread and all will be brilliant

good stuff however i suggest want would be better than should should implies imposed from outside want is what you are meaning i would say ... you want to do something means you do what is best for you apart from that, bang on and great elucidation and quotes
