Must be lonely up there

[Bryanbrax]

This is something I dont really see people talking about in here ,  going on this journey of self actualization has many  benefits . But also alot of pain involved be it sometimes physical , emotional. the one that hurts the most is losing friends and close people because they just dont simply understand you. Looking back at your life with this friends of yours , you find it hard to believe how much influence they had thoughts and beliefs they had on you and how much it shaped your reality. 

So you basically ditched them now you try to find people same age as you who thinks the same way as you. most people you meet just think you are lunatic or whatever word they can think of , some trying to impose on you their own limiting beliefs.

So you just kinda give up making friends , you say to yourself I dont need anyone , years in as you are doing the work , the further apart you grow from others and society resulting in loneliness a thought crosses your mind reminding you on how much fun stuff you did with your friends. You quickly remember why you cant be your friends despite your efforts 

 

Browsing online you find this forum , you are surprised by how many like minded people are here , you quickly make friends and find a common place your soul can finally feel at ease . 

Did @Leo Gura or other spiritual leaders create their own plat forms because deep inside they felt lonely , no one wants to be enlightened in a world full of fools so why not enlightenment for everyone

You might need some space and silence through some stages, for sure. But there is no reason to lose friends because of how much better you are than other people. That’s a silly egotistical perspective. If you’ve transcended views someone else hasn’t, it is inherent then that you are aware of that and aware they aren’t. Love & compassion, as well as simply not mentioning everything that arises in the mind are useful. 

The nugget here is - why on earth is importance placed on someone needing to understand you? Why so easily influenced? Sounds like fear based friend loss essentially. 

Why would you equate spiritual growth / self discovery, with losing anyone or anything, rather than relishing in the deeper ‘realness’, the Truth? 

In a world full of fools, one is playing the fool. 

“Up there” ? ? ?

WTF are you doing man??? Many find dogs to be their best friend, they're more loving than humans, they love affection. Should dog lovers ditch dogs because they are somehow 'above them?

If you think you are above someone, without even going into the egotistical issues that raises, the solution isn't to run away from them but to help them be happier. Jesus didn't run away from people. So didn't the Buddha and Shiva.

Just dont talk about this stuff with people that aren't interested. No problem. You dont need to ditch friends.

Focus on you, when you find yourself, you find everybody else

Holding onto things doesn't allow the universe the chance to attract new things to your life because your still latched onto some older things that no longer serve you, so you never find or see anything new because you are not in the present, you are in the past.

You must trust the universe with open arms if you want to see its magic at your hands.
