Is "awakening" just discovering metacognition?

[Breakingthewall]

No, awakening is about being without absolute limits. It's an energetic shift, not a conceptual one, but it creates a different conceptual framework.

You can have an IQ of 60 and still be limitless. You can have Down syndrome and still see the totality in everything and be one with it.

The problem with not being intelligent is that the human energy configuration is built by evolution to make you a cog in a machine, so irresistible forces will trap you. Unless you're a genetic anomaly in which those mechanisms are very weak. Otherwise, you'll become obsessed with success, fear will crush you, rejection will be intolerable, and death will be absolute horror.
