Pls read this. And watch this.

Is this any different from believing that the earth is round? Aka science.

@A way to Actualize the way I interpret it is that there simply been a deepening of realization. A seeing through the individual entity illusion and when conciousness can move through the body without an ego, much will change. He is simply talking about the change of course his life take when this continues to deepen.

Search on youtube for "dark night of the soul" and it will become clearer what Ayla meant.

Let's compare enlightenment with juggling. When you try to juggle the first times you'll never really juggle, you will try and throw the balls into the air but there is actually no success in catching and throwing the balls. They will just hit the ground over and over. You continue to practice and then suddenly it all falls into place and you can now juggle. Does this mean you are a master juggler? No, even though you know how to juggle there is now the process of mastering it. And can you ever learn everything about juggling? No, the path of juggling is never finished. There is always refinements to be done.

@Ludwig Thank you for sharing this!

What has been realized? Who is it that has realized it?

A real awakening is waking up from the person, seeing through it's illusion. So if the person is taking credit of the experience it will not last. Are there signs? Yes there is. An awakened person wants attention and respect for being enlightened. He can be a douche. Feel like he is better than others who hasn't "awakened". Someone who has truly realized what they are will never act this way. They will rather keep quiet.

I wish I had answers to your questions but I don't. There are no reasons why you should or shouldn't do anything. This will sound corny but the answer is follow your heart. If that is what you want to do, do it. ☺

Is it a problem then that you can't fly like birds or are as tall like the trees? Probably isn't a problem until you think about it?

@NoOne I get what you're saying. How can we help people when we have realized this. This is the part of the journey that we can refine forever. This is why there is no end to the enlightenment journey. There is no one solution. I can only think back to when I was in complete suffering, would I have been open to this? Definetly not. I was totally engulfed with feeling sorry for myself and distracting myself to not feel anything. Complete survival mode.

@NoOne Are any problem real? ?

@NoOne Spare them and yourself the trouble. They will become curious about it once they see the positive impact it has on your life but let them take that initiative.

Thank you for sharing your story. We are here to support you and answer any question that arises about your awakening.

Good. You've figured it out.. There is no knowing. There is only knowing of not knowing (and thats not true either). No words are true, at best they point to truth. So express that which want to express itself. From that place which feels true. The place that "you" want to wall in, hide.

Good one ☺@Sri McDonald Trump Maharaj

@Hengame watch his youtube channel. There are hundreds of videos there and they are all free.

I've been all for objectivity and science, it sure has it's place in life. But life can't be lived in an objective way. Even if science proves that free will doesn't exist it really doesn't help you if you feel that you have a free will, same with the self. So I agree that it is dangerous to just believe that what science has proven or believe what anyone is saying about enlightenment. Skepticism is good as long as it doesn't push you toward another belief. So if you want answers to your questions you will have to search for them in a subjective way, which you seem to be doing with meditation. That is also why I asked if you had searched for the self. That book sounds interesting. Maybe I'll check it out.
