The interesting thing about Brad Blanton is that he is an extreme extrovert.  Many of the spiritual teacher are very introverted and cerebral.  Blanton’s path to enlightenment is total, radical honesty in human relationships to create true intimacy and love.  That means no witholding and the recognition that even a trivial withold does damage.  This is a challenging and difficult practice.

Radical honesty in action:

"I resent you for saying that."

Brad's background is tough:

I wish I had pursued the career of a psychotherapist.

Let's not forget the great Vernon Howard:

I'd put him on the former list, too. Howard is a great teacher of Human Adulthood.

Dude how are you going to put down Ralston Hawkins and Wilber. You must not have awakened at all because their books are so helpful. Especially Ralston. You must just be not getting it because if you follow those books you don't need this personal self help shit because you're so conscious that you are free to be authentic. Ralston talks a ton about the importance of radical honesty btw

It's precisely because I had an awakening that I don't find their work appealing anymore.

That's not true. Have you studied the work of the guys that I've listed? That kind of work is very much needed, before and after awakening.

Yes I've read Radical Honesty. Very profound book. But i find that as you gain consciousness it's impossible to lie and be fake anymore anyway. It's always a good reminder though that you can be 100% honest

Consciousness will put pressure on everything that is false within you, but the mind is a cunning devil, so vigilance is key. Lying is still very much possible, but it becomes more painful.
