Awakenings make everyday life better but strip away the peaks of being human.

Probably your path leads you to a point where there is no difference between divine and mundane, if you align the mundane with the divine. It's not easy at all because all the humans work in dense mode, but they are an expression of the absolute. They are the absolute in human form. 

The mundane is divine but the divine is not mundane.

@UnbornTao I'd love to hear your feedback on my answer on the nature of consciousness and experience.

The soul now sees that all things are nothing in comparison.”

Likewise Saint Teresa of Ávila in The Interior Castle says after experiences of divine union says:

“Everything one sees on earth seems a mockery compared with what has been seen.”

In Sufi mysticism, Jalal al-Din Rumi repeatedly describes ordinary joys becoming insignificant before Awakening.

"Compared with one glimpse of God, paradise itself is dust."

Ramakrishna again said that after tasting Awakening:

"The pleasures of the world taste like straw."

That's true, being totally open to the absolute 1 second is more than anything in the earth. But you have to see the absolute in everything to live.

Ramakrishna, teresa, were a great inspiration but also addicted to the absolute (just from my point of view, I guess it was their destiny). For me there has to be a balance. We are here being humans, the absolute is not going to move. The point is achieve openess to the absolute in some moments, then see the absolute in everything, at least in some extent.

Achieving at least one real openess to the absolute is the change. Then I try to do it more time to time, but the objective is not feel so great being open to the absolute, that's being an addicted, the point is align my human reality as much as I can, do my work.

Anyway, a question. For you, the Absolute is a dreamer dreaming reality for a reason, and the nature of reality is consciousness? Because if that's your view of the total, then you haven't yet broken through the ultimate barrier.

The Absolute is the unlimited that is the source of existence. Reality isn't a dream; it's a possible expression of the unlimited, and you are that expression becoming aware of its nature, not a creator who dreams and hides from themselves by playing games. If that's your view, you haven't let go of the individual; you still see the Absolute as an individual. It isn't. That's why the surrender required to open yourself to the Absolute must be total.

There is not a creator or a will, it's what is possible happens. An analogy could be that the absolute is a hole without limits that is absolute potential, not an entity. The power of the absolute is absolute, because has no limits, but it's not creating, it's happening, it's just inevitable. To being totally open to the absolute you have to disappear. If you think that you are god dreaming, you didn't disappear.

I second this.

Some people want to hide their human.  This makes sense in our Internet day and age.  You don't know who you're relating with online.  Sometimes you do though.  Then you know.

Yes yes you're right. We're very aligned, it's clearly the wise way to go about it.

My view is much more nuanced and refined but I've contemplated what you've said in the past and I recognise there's a type of Awakening you're pointing towards that I haven't fully realised in it's totality so to speak, it has been tangential or in aggregation with other facets. 

I'm working on fully opening and dissolving myself in Absolute Infinity. It's taking quite some work, but probably in this year or the next will happen.
