What have been your top 3 struggles along the path towards enlightenment?

50 posts in this topic

...I haven't had any struggles with enlightenment work so far...

Also, enlightenment work attracts people who need the most healing...I.e, people who are the most broken...I think a lot of the struggles that people claim to have *as a result of the path to enlightenment*...would still exist if they never heard of the path... (Could be wrong) for me, enlightenment is the only thing I do not struggle with...for some reason...I guess maybe it took a lot to trust the voice when it told me to keep quiet and continue practising, but that's about it. Now I know how to get the job done and I know I will...even if it takes me 50 years

Pretty much everything that pertains to emotions:

1. Fear of unknown

2. Attachments to other people

3. Inability to be fully present in the moment due to the thoughts.....
