What percent of this forum are enlightened?

17 posts in this topic

Like breakdown of

  • not enlightened
  • had first enlightenment experience
  • permanently enlightened
  • permanently liberated

Obvisouly this isnt an census so if deemed possible to make a somewhat accurate prediction, make one

@AlphaAbundance this has been asked a few times in the past..but why does it matter?  Even if you had a spreadsheet listing these down...what good what that do you on your own path?   It's not like Truth can be proven in any way because proof is something Truth actually imagines.   So it would just be a piece of paper with some stats on it.  On who is more awake than another..seems like it might defeat the purpose of what is being taught here?

@AlphaAbundance  I had a few awakenings, Is that what you are referring to as "enlightenment experience"? You are curious, so Nothingness, dying, Infinity, life is a dream were my awakenings.

There are a few stages of enlightenment and liberation. Take sadhguru for example, he claims that he doesn't know how to meditate anymore, if he closes his eyes the world disappears. That's probably absolute enlightenment.

I have talked to people who are able to only have thoughts if necessary, and able to perceive the formless within a second. Another guy just told me that he was everything, not explaining how or if he switches.

Those 2 people I described STILL meditate, that's kind of enlightenment, Sadhguru is absolute enlightenment if what he is describing is true.

Everyone seems to be joking on here and they all have a point there is nobody to be enlightened and only the 1 self ;) 

However, in terms of people on here who are fully awake, it seems like a low amount to me just from looking at responses and the question asked. But, a lot of people who are awake won’t have a need to ask questions about enlightenment, so it’s to assumed most asking “questions” in this sub forum at least, will unlikely be fully awake, but it’s impossible to put a figure on it.
