What would you do in life, if you were enlightened ?

67 posts in this topic

You are perfect as you are right now. No need to change yourself, to be "more" or to be "less".

Life is a game, resources are free.
You have blank slate, you can create anything you want.

Cmon...just do whatever you want

What has that go to do anything with enlightenment

Most of my energy goes into "changing myself" and a pursuit of something else than what "is" here and now.

I start to forget about self-improvement and chasing enlightenment (paradox / theme of things going full circle).

I've heard that even if you'r experiencing a thousand enlightened life's, you still have to re-incarnate to explore something different.

About minimalist life-style, having a simple life doesn't necessary means subtracting things (circumstances) but accepting the world as it is right now : perfect.

@Saumaya I've stopped talking about those stuff to my family and friends, because it makes me look like a freak.

I mean I still have few irl friends to talk about the law of attraction, metaphysics, angels... but 99% of people aren't into it.

My shelf was full of self-help/consciousness books, and only one fictional book (neuromancer by william gibson).

Everything is contained within ourselves (or itself).

You know when you'r stuck climbing a rope, it's maybe because you'r using just one arm.

Using my second arm for me would mean forgetting myself in the matter, and go back explore what it is like being "human".

Life is a dream, ok, and what is the purpose of a dream ?

To answer your question more precisely, lastly I tried to be "in the now" when in social anxiety, or making decisions. I though "if I'm in the now, nothing wrong could happen - and everything will be fine" so I was trying to force myself to be in the now. Then I tried "fuck it" if I want to doubt, I doubt. If I want to try and fail, I fail. If I want to worry, I worry. If I want A, I get A. If I want to suffer, I suffer, it's not a problem. No more escape. Time to face it all ^^

I do nothing.  Just let go and let whatever happens happen.

If suffering stops that means you can do stuff that you wanted to do but has limited you.

For example if anxiety stopped you from travelling alone. now that you are self realized you will be able to do that.

"What would you do in life, if you were enlightened ?"

How can I possibly know until I'm actually enlightened? :)

Everybody is already Enlightened, so no.  False modesty is Ego.

I know what you are saying. Because we are born free. But no, most of us are still trapped, but hey, that doesnt mean we cant free ourselves B|

Ok so why do we even discuss enlightenment on this forum then?

My two cents: I would be a different person everyday and throw away the old me when I sleep.


All stories and explanations are false.
