Can the highest of teachings ever become mainstream?

[Beeflamb]

Something I've noticed that I find rather amusing is that whenever I manage to find a text, a Youtube video, an article, a meditation/spiritual teacher ect... that is extremely profound, insightful, and deep, it always has very few views/public information about it. It feels like I unlocked some secret treasure that although publicly available, is completely ignored by nearly everyone. 

And sometimes there will be a hidden treasure discovered that does go mainstream and it becomes rotten.

Let's take a silly example that kindof fits for this (Joe Rogan lol)

I remember when Joe was a psychedelic adventurer, really diving deep into DMT, consciousness, and had some really interesting guests on his show. It seems like now that he has gotten extremely popular he's lost something in the process. I don't know what it is exactly but he just seems more boring and complacent with life. His interview with Trump was incredibly boring.

And then of course there is the mainstream, which is almost entirely garbage and brain rot these days.

Do you think there will ever come a point where this is flipped? And the profound becomes the mainstream? What would society look like at that stage?

The highest teaching is nothing. 

Can't become mainstream because you can't utilise it to fit your egoic agenda . It's waging a war against your ego ..annihilating it and becoming a nobody .who wants to do that ?  How can you use this ? How can "nothing " be mainstream?

@Beeflamb no body wants to admit that he/she is just an illusion.

I wonder what would happen if we showed everyone non duality in school or something. How would it be received. You have to understand that most people haven’t even heard of it, don’t even know it’s a thing at all.

Yes but the world would be crying. If everyone saw God society would collapse.

Nobody is waging a war — except an ego.

Everyone is me. I need speak nothing except bask in the wonder that I get to rub shoulders and get audiences with God on earth every encounter.

You don't even need to treat me as God. Just regard me as such in your mind. And weep with joy.

Exactly. Use the ego to kill the ego . Turn your mind in on itself and use it to see through it .

It's not about killing the ego but building an amazing one. Playing an amazing one.
