I agree.  haha.

Ok so moral of the story. Enlightened beings still can get triggered.  But they know the difference as to whether or not they want to submit to the triggers and let them trigger them. Enlightened beings know the difference. But..whether they want to listen to the difference doesnt make them less enlightened

I'm still confused as to what being triggered means?

Letting something bother you.

It is not clear whether we are acting from irritation or creation through.

If it was from creation it wouldn't bother you would it?

Simply rage? You act like rage is rain from the sky. Who is causing that rage and why? Obviously rage is reactive. You are raging at someone for something.

I don’t agree an emotion by itself is „reactive”. I sense that by your understanding/definition all emotions are reactive, not just rage. „What is causing that fear and why? Sadness? Joy?”

Lately I’ve been feeling emotions in their pure form more. It doesn’t matter what the story behind them is. What matters is that they are, and feeling into them.

When I feel rage, it’s a blessing. I welcome it. I felt it recently a bunch. It was interesting for sure. Something I didn’t experience in a long time.

I love this 

Radical allowance moves the emotion faster. Letting myself feel into emotions with no resistance is changing my relationship to the emotion itself in a way. And many of my old emotions are no longer reacted to and acted out. Just responded to, inspected with less judgement, and swiftly moved through.

Who is there to be enlightened, though?

@Natasha Tori Maru Consciousness changing. Becoming more of itself.

That's partially true. 

But unconditional love is not the same as unconditional tolerance. Love doesn't tolerate bullshit. Love burns everything that is not true. So if you think Love will look peacefully at you while you do evil things, that's not true, instead you're going to get yourself seriously cooked by the white fire and it may not look gentle and soft.

Beautiful. ☺️

Radical allowance is a great term.

Capacity also resonates a lot for me lately. High capacity (for feeling) means you can let through whatever wants to flow, without recoiling.

In truth, capacity is never actually limited, it’s just thought/belief that makes you feel: „I can’t handle it. This is too much. I don’t have the capacity.”

There is ALWAYS capacity! Such freedom and joy this is. 😄

This is something I don't understand.

If someone wakes up, why would they then choose to go in the wrong direction.

Doesn't seem to make sense

Waking up is I am God. Enlightenment is I am you. If You have the first not the second, I am God but you are not and therefore I can treat you mercilessly and know it is perfectly fine. Indeed now I can have the best fucking dream ever. Enlightenment? A hard pass for me bud. God me is way better than the plebs out there and all the smoking women agree, left and right. As endorsed by every corrupt master who even lived.
