Key Elements

@Leo Gura I want to thank you for your clips on enlightenment, Graves model, Maslow, and detachment. All your clips are useful, but these particular ones seem to be the most useful to me. I know that the map is not the territory (enlightenment saying), but without these particular clips, it's like sailing across the ocean without even a compass to guide you. Thanks. If you have any more plans other than the beautiful log cabin, pls feel free to let us know.

The change of external circumstances could happen unexpectedly. It could test how well adjusted a person is internally. It may help a person grow by leaps and bounds if the person is aware that challenges are opportunities.

Leo...here is some inspiration for you since in one of your clips, you said that you wanted to become a monk. Heard of Shaolin Temple? I wish I had this much discipline. Look them up on YouTube. I should watch them more for inspiration. Look at their facial expressions! No ego!

It's very hard to find a speaker like Leo online who speaks out the truth directly. Sometimes you need these kind of speakers who don't go a roundabout way of speaking and you can't understand. Sometimes it's easier to understand direct truth.

I'm posting all these because Leo & actualized.org are part of my footprints. ☺ You explained things so simply and clearly. You are bold to speak out. One thing just leads to another. It triggered even more footprints and everything started falling into place. Things got organized and mapped out for me. (Footprints is an enlightenment term according to Zen.) Look for footprints in life-they give clues. Here are some links to what footprints and beyond are about. To understand the story more, one has to actually experience it... https://youtu.be/x8aN9O73lgg https://youtu.be/0PQonSiGkVE https://youtu.be/Ozca_5ifwQ0 Here are some after enlightenment terminologies. Life continues, but now you have a great reference. Just don't fall into traps. However, I know that there are more than just these type of experiences...☺ https://youtu.be/i288Lnb7NOk We don't need to be in such a big rush to see it all; we still need to go through Graves and Maslow's model. The map (model) is not the territory! These terms are great if you use them to describe your enlightenment experiences to a Zen master, guru, or monk. It will make the conversations go easier.
