Lock 🔒 the damn thread

@Sincerity I'm waiting.......


 "When you get very serious about truth you accept your life situation exactly as it is. So much so that you aren't childishly sitting around wishing it were otherwise.If you were confined to a wheelchair you would just accept it as how reality is. Just as you now just accept that you are not a bird who can fly."

-Leo Gura.

"Realize that you are greater than you can ever 
imagine. You are God in all its essence. You are not a piece of God or a parcel of God. You 
are the whole. You are absolute oneness, nirvana, emptiness. You are the Self.
Why not accept this?
All you have to do is intellectually accept the truth and the intellect will cause it to 
go into the subconscious, the subconscious will go into the reality, the reality will turn into 
consciousness and consciousness will express itself as bliss. This means that while you 
appear to be wearing a body, it will be a body of bliss. Others will not see it like that. But 
you will not be concerned with others, for you are others. And as you see your body of 
bliss, of course it includes the body of the universe because your body of bliss is omni-
presence. Therefore you see everything as bliss and you have unalloyed happiness, joy 
and peace."

- Robert adams

These people saying things like this have only had glimpses of enlightenment or no self.

What happens is, its underestimated how sneaky and convincing the ego or self illusion actually is.

See, the ego becomes threatened during these glimpses and takes a different, extra sneaky approach........"I recognize I am not this small self, but yet I am still here existing"; "Well then, I must be everything"; I am all of existence"; "I must be the creator of all" "I am God"

This is what's often referred to as "The Spiritual Ego" or "Super Ego"!

Its like ego on steroids essentially 😄 

These people are not enlightened!

Sure they may be temporarily experiencing unalloyed happiness, joy 
and peace.....the ego or illusion of self is relentless.....trust.

But it can always be spotted because it's Identification itself......whether it believes itself to be a small human self or God itself, doesn't matter.......all that matters is its an Identification to keep on keeping on.......it will fight tooth and nail for Identification.......it's all it knows!

Liberation doesn't happen for a someone. Nobody becomes enlightened or ever will.

It's so damn funny and or surprising when it's recognized......it truly is a cosmic joke

Hi VeganAwake. Hope you &family are doing well.

If you want to play the game of doing science about ego then I can play the same word salad game and ask you this :

Who is the "you" or " people "who are not enlightened to get a different view of the "ego"? Awee this is  tricky. You assume there is a you that have an ego.. The ego IS what is being referred to as "you". . So if you want to be technically careful and rigorous there are no people who are fooled by ego because ego is the idea that there is ego or people.

Thanks brother & same to you!

My word salad has rice vinegar though! 😋 

Who is the "you" or " people "who are not enlightened to get a different view of the "ego"?

There isn't anyone here, that's what is meant by nobody becomes enlightened. The self or ego is an illusion of identification.......so "I'm" referring to the nobodies that are identified as that very illusion.

Awee this is  tricky. You assume there is a you that have an ego..

Thats exactly what's been being described here all along. 

The ego IS what is being referred to as "you". . So if you want to be technically careful and rigorous there are no people who are fooled by ego because ego is the idea that there is ego or people.

Yes, exactly
