It's weird how the so-called Enlightened people are some of the most stuck people when it comes to personal development work. They're stuck in their ideology which makes them have huge blind-spots. They don't know what being awake really means. They don't really know who they are. They're clinging to ideas of who they are rather than knowing who they are. There's a difference there that they don't get yet. I was there too, so I know what that's like. Teaching Enlightenment is a tough thing because you gotta go into the ideas and then come out the other side of the ideas. Until you do that, you're gonna be stuck in a kind of fantasy-land and you're not really gonna be woke -- but you're gonna think you're woke. It's a real problem and it's hard to teach people out of ideas and back into themselves -- back into all of themselves. Their real selves, not their fantasy selves. Being woke is being in tune with you without any distortions -- it's knowing who you truly are. Being woke is not living some kind of dissociated, bypassed, conceptual fantasy about who you think you are. No thinky-thinky; it's being authentically you, that's it.

Everything you said here is your personal experience and if you fail to make me think otherwise then you have to no right to think otherwise at least what my thinking is. Just take my perspective as one monkey perspective among many monkey perspectives. Let it marinate with you and then spit it out. Nobody is forcing you to do anything. I'm just offering my perspective like kids do in show-and-tell in kindergarten. Edited May 23, 2019 by Joseph Maynor Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

According to your perspective. But you've re-framed your perspective as the "one right truth" here. Can you see that? How arrogant of you. There's a lot of arrogance in the shadows of many so-called Enlightened people I find. At least I'm open and honest with my arrogance and I know what I'm doing and where it's coming from.

Posted May 23, 2019 (edited) @Truth Addict not one but many. But it also takes doing the consciousness work. Some are more spiritually gifted then others. Maybe psychedelics is a good tool for someone not making any progress after several years of hardcore meditation, yoga, and self inquiry. Edited May 23, 2019 by Inliytened1 Wisdom. Truth. Love.

Thing is, if everyone is against you, either they are all wrong, or you're all wrong. If you're wise enough, you will tend to inquire the second possibility first.

You can replace the word "spiritual" with "humans" in most of those sentences. To me, he just seems upset that he wan't able to attain enlightenment, so his ego developed this thinking to protect himself. I mean, they are good questions to ask yourself though. Like #2 is legit. I love the idea of no free-will and maybe I am drawn to spirituality because it makes it easier to forgive myself for past mistakes. If you don't have enlightenment, than this is not much different than a religion - just a belief. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
