The wicked irony of pursuing fame through spirituality (or any other attempt to mistake spirituality as a means to an end) is that when you finally strike spiritual gold, whatever was being pursued with such greed is discarded as the worthless distraction that it is.

Or when you finally strike gold (or you're about to), you're appalled by the fact that you have to sacrifice any notion you have of yourself as famous.

The prospect of such a sacrifice can scare people into dropping the pickaxe and running back to the entrance of the spiritual cave. So it goes until they finally tire of running, and strike gold.

Haha it's like the inverse of Plato's Cave: you emerge out of the cave and get blinded by the golden Sun vs. you descend down and get blinded by the golden shine of the Earth

@Carl-Richard Spiritual spelunking  You have to face the darkness and descend into the dragon's lair before being granted access to its hoard.

Simply to tell you the truth.

Would you say that emphasizing that truth too much comes from the ego?

Interestingly, to me, I think the puzzle fits perfectly. Not that the mind sees the perfection, it can only speculate that from what it knows about the essence of creation. To not see perfection, is to not see the Source as perfect since everything is Source. When the student is ready the teacher will appear is a perfect example of this. Maybe if you look back at your experiences, some of the things you understand now wouldn't have made much sense to you. Its a process, like planting a seed; and if you water it properly, it blossoms into its full potential. Our limited minds are incapable of seeing the full picture because we are a part of the picture. We need a mirror to see our backside but someone else can see it from their angle. Its like you stepping out of ourself to view yourself from a meta level. Most, not all, people stumble upon Spirituality because of suffering and mental pain and most people are just coasting through life believing that when things go "wrong" its just a part of life, which it is, but they don't  question why are things happening the way they are. They just accept it as a normal way of being and go to their grave believing it as such. Most of us, tho, meaning Spiritual characters intuitively know there's more to life than whats being shown to the naked eye so we begin the search to find what we believe is missing. Its just a game Source is playing with itself and when its ready to awaken to itself it will. 

Great Post!! Loved reading every minute of it!

The more conscious you become, the more you’ll realize that ego truly does not exist.

It can. But there is also the matter of skill. Speaking truth requires skill, which takes a lot of experience to develop.

Anyone here who claims to be AWAKE, or to understand what AWAKE is, or what GOD is, or what CONSCIOUSNESS is -- is fooling themselves.

The only one here who understands these things is ME.

This does not mean, however, that I cannot sometimes be full of shit myself. I can. I am not perfect. But not on this issue.

Enlightenment is not AWAKE.
Buddhism is not AWAKE.
Nonduality is not AWAKE.
No amount of meditation is AWAKE.

There will be a lot of bitching and moaning over this issue. But I simply told you the truth.

You've been warned. This is way more tricky than you ever imagined. My function here is to guide people through every trick. But the problem is, they don't want to be guided because they already think they've figured it out. Don't be that guy.

So? Where is the explanation of that? The truth is that now that post sounds quite delirious to me. especially since after those statements nothing incredible has been seen coming out of the mind of the most awake guy in the history of the human being. Still waiting to make an opinion.

We are talking in the realm of spirituality… what is this “real” you speak about! Humans want things to be real, tangible, and logically sound… that’s what makes humans limited.

Let’s get this post to 69 pages so I can finally go back Home.

So, why it's absolutely genius?

[Yimpa]

@Breakingthewall Pulling out all the hair on top of my skull one strand at a time would be wiser than explaining why this post is absolutely genius. 

And no, I’m not Leo, so I do have a full head of hair.
