"Enlightenment is a simple realization..."

*spends the rest of the video talking about reincarnation, Sadghuru, Buddhism, and then never addresses what enlightenment is*

Ok, just scrolled through his channel, and literally all his videos are either Sadghuru, Buddhism, or reincarnation. So yeah summed it up pretty well there lmao.

[Simbruh]

If it's not for you, you don't need to watch. No one is forcing you. 

"So yeah summed it up pretty well there lmao.". The only thing that is summed up is the fact that you have your own ideas of what enlightenment is, though you yourself are definitely not enlightened lmao.

Maybe he is an insightful person, I'm not discounting all his stuff, but enlightenment is its own thing which should not be conflated with the stuff he is teaching, which seems to be a mix of buddhist teachings and energy work.

I am enlightened, that is why I am so adamant about making the distinction between someone who is and isn't enlightened.

[Simbruh]

Oh great, i found another one who thinks he's enlightened. Go and make a video about it then? You won't. Others will make comments about you saying that you aren't enlightened. And the cycle continues...

I will probably be much more careful about how I introduce it, I probably won't even use the word enlightenment because people have so many ideas around that term already. I only use that term on this forum because I think people are more receptive to that kind of spiritual vocabulary here.

Ok, the way you think is not the same as the way other people think. Even if you were enlightened, i would put this guy way above you. If you think you have the ability to sniff out who is enlightened and who isn't , then think again. You even displayed you disapproval of Sadhguru. That was a big mistake on your part. In many ways Sadhguru's perception outclasses even Leo's.  And also, being enlightened doesn't give you authority to say who is enlightened and who isn't. Enlightenment gives you a certain perspective of life, but at the end of the day, you still have a pattern of thinking that is residual from the person you were before. It takes a lot of effort to drop that. The term we use for that is called chakreshwara. The way you are going, you will never get there in this life.

I don't disapprove of him, I was just pointing out the fixation on him. I think he is enlightened for what it is worth.

It makes it much easier to discern. I am just saying I don't see anything really indicating it here. Maybe he is, but nothing here indicates that to me, and so I don't see a reason to think that he is.

Might as well have made “How I grasped the color red” video instead.

Even if you don't think @Osaid is enlightened, atleast he's polite and respectful.

The color red analogy, my ultimate trump card.

What are we saying enlightened is? There’s probably loads of enlightened people. If it’s realising your God, then even I’m enlightened. Enlightenment just in itself seems pretty low level in God realisation to me now. To be aware of the ins and outs of it is what creates depth to an enlightenment. Not just a realisation, but the depths of things like how you are constructing other people, the complete make up of how this shit is being done. Not just people, everything. And just using ‘imagination’ just isn’t good enough. Not just realising that it’s an illusion, but an understanding of exactly what you’re doing to create it. Completely deconstructing the web. The only person I’ve ever seen come close to these sorts of understandings is Leo. None of the other supposedly enlightened people we see videos of even comes close to explaining the ins and outs of what is actually going on. Yea they babble some pretty wise stuff, they know consciousness is all there is, they know that’s god. I’m not sure there’s anyone on the planet that is truly enlightened to the degrees which I personally would call enlightenment.

Yeah, that's called God Engineering. That's right, tell 'em.

None of these leaders are enlightened!

Might be enlightened, doubt it, not interested.

You'd be better off studying Ramana's material. Why not study the best material?
