Do enlightened people care?

[Chrissy j]

Once your enlightened it seems like some people don’t even care about anything. Nothing matters at all to them.  Like they might say if they’re daughter dies they don’t care, it’s just a part of the dream. Is that true across all enlightened beings? Or do some of the more deeply enlightened ones actually do care and love people, care about people, have empathy for people, etc? I’d feel like I’d be losing my humanity if I didn’t care at all. I think it would make sense if they thought it’s okay if somebody died or whatever it’s just how life goes, but I mean won’t they still be sad if their mom died or something?

Some care, some don't. Those who don't trust that humanity will not destroy itself before it evolves out of self-destruction. 

Deeply enlightened people all beyond all attachments. You can not really an everyday psyche to an enlightened one.

There is a difference between nothing matters and caring for things. You dont have to be enlightened to realise that.

@Chrissy jIt's not they they don't care, they just see from such a great and expanded perspective that they know in the core of there being that everything is perfect, everything is love, and all is always well. 

So if their Mom died, they would not be sad. If a their life was threatened they would hold no fear. This is because they know that they and all the people in this world are immortal, unlimited souls. They know we are much greater than the physical body; we also have an emotional, mental, causal, and spirit body that exists after death  

Infinite love.

[How to be wise]

@Chrissy j once Byron Katie was having a surgery. The surgeon asked her if she should be resuscitated in case the surgery went bad. She said that she couldn’t decide between whether to get resucitated or not because she really didn’t care whether or not she died. Her husband made the choice for her to be resuscitated. True masters really don’t care about their own life and death, let alone anything else. It depends on how much you embody enlightenment.
