The number of followers doesn't mean anything. Most people will choose someone who is charismatic but full of shit over someone truly enlightened but not as charismatic. If a person's actions do not reflect his supposed realization, he's not enlightened. You could call it an enlightened ego.

It's also worth saying that the "trap of absolute" is always the trap of a false absolute. As long as there is absolute that is distinct from the relative, it's not absolute. Some relative aspect (such as awareness or presence) was assigned to be the absolute.

When the ego (a subtle object that claims to be the subject) is present, the mental/emotional body reacts to this lie by saying "you're inadequate", "you're inferior", "you're worthless" etc. all of which is true, because it's about the ego, not the body/personality. The ego doesn't want you to realize that these feelings are pointing to it, so it will point to something else as the culprit. This something else is usually either one's own body/personality or someone else's. By ridiculing others, whether overtly or in one's own mind it diverts attention from itself. But ridiculing oneself is the same thing. The ego is saying, it's not me, it's this body or this personality that sucks.

Believing it's good to rob society of money is not the same as believing you're doing what's best for the society. Someone robbing a store is in most cases motivated by their own benefit; they're not thinking about society.

Not necessarily. Someone robbing a store obviously doesn't believe they're doing what's best for the society, unless that person is crazy. People mostly do what's best for them. Nothing wrong with that if other people don't get hurt in the process.

Well, when I said people are in denial, I meant they are living in a fairy tale land where mainstream media are trying to do what's best for the society.

I'm not in denial of veganism. I believe it exists. I don't believe it's the best diet for everybody.

So many people are in denial on this forum.

There is no such thing as luck.

What drugs were taken and at what dosages to get these insights?

You have to realize that consciousness is also a self. In true no self, even consciousness is a dream. So no matter how infinitely conscious you become, it's all within the dream. True god realization puts an end to this chasing of deeper and deeper levels.

Emptiness/void is not absolute. It's a mistake to think about it as the absolute reality. Emptiness is one aspect, same as presence and awareness. The absolute is what appears as these.

You cannot be conscious of God because when God comes, you go.

Make sure you break your fast properly. It should take a while before you can eat meat after a 14 day fast.

Usually drug induced awakenings that they were not ready for.

But then you'll take on another body and your new circumstances will depend on your state of consciousness because your life is simply a reflection of your state of consciousness. The more egoic delusions you work through, the better off you are.

Nothing, really. But eating meat is good for grounding.

All the things that you've listed (except carnivore diet) will do the opposite of grounding. From what you've been posting it seems like you need to work on loving and accepting yourself so that you're not dependent on attention, love and acceptance from others.

The question of meaning only arises when you're living in your mind. If your life is a mess and you have a lot of issues, you're not enlightened.

There are already several variants. By the time they develop vaccines for the new variants and everybody takes them, there will be dozens of new variants.

What practices did you use to get where you are now?

You don't enjoy suffering. You think you enjoy it because you're attached to it. And you're attached to it because you believe you'll get god's good grace by suffering enough.

God is not imagining anything. The one imagining is part of the imagination. God also doesn't fall asleep, as Leo claims. It is consciousness that fools itself (which begins by consciousness believing it is God), but in truth even consciousness doesn't exist.

Simply forcing your attention to be in the present moment rarely works. It's important to investigate what causes monkey mind. When you find yourself lost in thinking, ask yourself, "what do I want to get by thinking this?". You'll find that you can narrow it down to just a few things: acceptance, approval, love and peace. Realize that others won't be able to give those things to you, it will never be enough. Feel that acceptance, approval, love or peace that you wanted to get from others. You can give it to yourself. With enough practice, your mind will become less needy and you'll have an easier time living in the present.
