The five steps of life according to the Vetavads.

[MarkusSweden]

According to the mystic tradition of Vetavadism in Papua Nya Guinea life is a cycle in 5 steps!

Is this accurate? 

1. You enter into this world as pure infinite consciousness. (In the womb) 

2. You learn how to enter the body, and then the process of becoming a person begins when you are being born(leaving the womb) which is encouraged by the society. Finally you grow up become a solid person with many traits typical for you, opinions, sense of humour, interests, sexual preferences etcetera. 

3. You start to unbecoming the person aka enlightenment, you find out that you are not the thinker of your thought, you don't decide what to feel etcetera. Finally there is no agent, no person there. You are liberated and free, you are individuality instead of  personality, thus you are enlightened. 

4. You start discover that individuality although you are not a person anymore is still limiting you. You decide to break out from individuality into universality aka physical death. You either are conscious enough to leave your body without doing any harm to it, or you do it by harming yourself(The first way is the one to strive for according to Vetavadism , one should never harm oneself) 

5. The cycle repeats itself, universal consciousness(the only consciousness there is) comes back into life in this reality aka step 1.

You being born to this world as pure infinite consciousness

We are not born to this world as pure infinite consciousness. We are not born enlightened. If a child lives totally alone, he will never come to grow an ego. But that is not going to help. He will remain like an animal.

True, but you are referring to step 2 when pure consciousness has grown into the body already. A child totally alone manage to enter step 2. But prior to that, when it's in the women's womb, it goes from pure consciousness to gradually limiting the infinite consciousness and grow it inte the body. 

According to Vetavadism that is.
