Because they first created a hellish existence within themselves.

There’s just one thing I don't get here... Jose Reyes...

They didn't create anything. It's already a living hell on earth. And what about the people who have never even heard of them, let alone spoken of them? Who created a hell for those people?
🙄

Look, you can keep pushing my buttons all you want, but I have to admit—your posts are actually getting sharper.
The only question left is whether you even realize what you're saying.

I don't need to grasp any of this... thinking doesn't help here... in fact, it just gets in the way...
The less I understand, the better.🙏
It simply arrives as a raw fact...

You’re acting so high-strung; here, take the bone and bite it...🙂

YOU ALONE are nothing more than an ILLUSION,
Your "selfhood" is nothing more than a CLUSTER OF ILLUSIONS.
If you begin a "search" in that manner, you are inviting SCHIZOPHRENIA into your soul.
If you fracture YOURSELF, from YOURSELF, into an ILLUSION that dissects another ILLUSION, it will be as if a VAMPIRE is draining you dry.

Fine, I guess I look like I'm just copying you now... but really, I'm just following the sequence.🙂

You can't truly grasp anything without a direct confrontation. We have to face our own illusions head-on; there's simply no way to dodge them. That is why the search is vital. It isn't some quest to become ENLIGHTENED—enlightenment is merely the *aftermath*. It’s what happens once we finally collide with the illusion. Every action has a reaction.

But even the one doing the confronting—the "confronter"—is nothing more than a figment of the imagination...
Which means their very attempt at confrontation is just another layer of the illusion...
No, no, no... let me rephrase... it’s as if there was never anyone there to face it in the first place. Because at the moment of enlightenment, the "I" (that whole personality construct) becomes a mere object. In that sense, there is no distinction between us and a tree...

In a seeker's life, the search isn't just a part of living—it *is* living. No one truly understands how others reach enlightenment. No one can grasp the mechanics of another's awakening. Nobody knows the true essence of the quest, where it starts, or where it finally terminates. Once you're enlightened, words become useless tools to describe the experience.

So, in our own pursuit, we shouldn't obsess over labels, paths, or structures. We simply live the search. When the moment arrives, the ultimate truth of all things will reveal itself. Insight isn't something you can force through sheer willpower; it’s about being ready for the insight to happen.

That’s the most coherent thought I can muster right now. I have no idea if I'm even making sense here... *shrug*

This whole "search" is nothing more than an illusion. It's a mirage that feels like reality only because you haven't woken up yet. Once you actually achieve enlightenment, you'll realize why the searching was just a phantom to begin with....

To goes to Karen Sanchez19, who seems to think enlightenment is achieved simply by balancing a daisy on your head and—just sitting there.

No... just waiting isn't enough. In fact, waiting itself is a symptom of the ego—of our lower consciousness. It’s not about having enough patience to wait; it’s about having enough presence to stop waiting altogether.

Think of this "universal consciousness"... view it as something entirely separate from your ego-driven awareness and that distorted, misused sense of "self."

Everything you do in pursuit of enlightenment happens on *this* side of the equation. Everything. An enlightened being stays on the sidelines—or rather, exists on a different plane entirely—but they aren't sitting around waiting for you to catch up.
😁
They have no need to wait for anyone.

But then again, since everything is already a fixed reality... I suppose you could always sign up for one of those "enlightenment intensives" run by some local charlatans and pretend to experience it there.

Then why does Buddha's Path even exist if you don't actually "walk" it? For heaven's sake, Buddha walked it! Enlightenment didn't just drop out of the sky onto his head. It was a search. And in any search, you move from point A to point B—even if your physical body never leaves the chair.

People... honestly. I can't even deal with this right now.

The truth is, this whole idea of "searching" is an illusion. Perhaps he simply believes that enlightenment is the result of a quest, but it isn't a consequence of seeking at all.

Now, I don't know if an enlightened person realizes this intuitively. If they do, then it follows that Buddha wasn't truly enlightened.

That is precisely ONE of the criteria I use to argue that figures like Buddha or Muhammad were actually enlightened—that they spoke from the perspective of an adept who has successfully crossed Daath (that Kabbalistic "abyss" found in Tree of Life symbolism).

Success... you mean historical success?

Everything those men ever uttered (Jesus and Buddha alike)...

They lived over 2,000 years ago... their actual words have been "blended" more than you could possibly imagine...

Perhaps that isn't even their success at all... perhaps it’s just the success of the people who wrote in their names...

They are essentially characters from a novel (especially the Bible)...

Everyone just parrots what, say, Jesus said... maybe he was just a fictional figure... but even that doesn't matter...
In reality, it doesn't even matter if they were truly enlightened or not...
What matters is what is written in their "works"—their recorded statements...

The New Testament and Jesus' words are saturated with messages meant for the masses; to me, that is sufficient proof that we are dealing with politicians...
I am not saying Jesus wasn't enlightened... but it is glaringly obvious that the New Testament contains far more politics and far less of the true, enlightened Master...

I need to dig into the Apocryphal Gospels from the Nag Hammadi library... then I will see what the Church really is and why they rejected them... because the Church has always historically discarded the truth in favor of whatever serves its own interests.

As long as you keep thinking like that, you’re just going to stay stuck in a dead end.

Michelangelo hit the nail on the head—you don't debate spirituality. All we have are our own lived experiences, not some secondhand account from someone else. That's the whole point of a koan. It doesn't matter how anyone else reaches enlightenment; what matters is how *we* get there. And the answer? It’s buried inside us. No one can hand it to you on a silver platter.

There’s your mistake right there... ditch this idea of "how we get there."
Because nobody is actually "going" anywhere.😎
🎉

It isn't a secret. It’s just invisible to those lacking insight.
There must be a "Code."
Without it, what separates you from Master John?

The truth is, there is no difference because:

"The grass and the trees are ALWAYS enlightened."

Exactly like you, hollowviper72.

🙂 🙂 🙂 😁 😎

Nisargadatta already mentioned how Kudechi was essentially "launched" by that spiritual fraud, Balsekar.

Honestly, I couldn't care less who he mentions. I spent some time surfing through what both he and Maharashi have to say today. If Maharashi represents enlightenment, then this guy is either just copying him or he’s actually enlightened himself... though his perspective feels a bit warped. Maharashi, on the other hand, seems almost "blessed."

First you say:

quote:Pache, even when you are CONVINCED that an ENLIGHTENED BEING is right in front
of you, you go back to LYING TO YOURSELF.

Then, just a few posts later, you’re acting completely CERTAIN:

quote:And grass and trees have ALWAYS been ENLIGHTENED.

What you're missing is a third quote where you claim you were just lying to yourself with those first two.

An enlightened one would probably demand an explanation from an enlighteta... but I'll try to explain it myself..

That "universal divine consciousness" (an expression I just cooked up... but you know what I mean😁 ) exists everywhere and all at once....
In humans, enlightenment happens (heightened states of awareness, etc... blah blah blah)... essentially, they possess a pre-existing ego-consciousness, and we call the shift that occurs "enlightenment"... not because that universal consciousness wasn't present within them all along, but simply because of that transition...
Trees don't have an ego-consciousness.. (yet that universal consciousness is present everywhere, including in trees and in us... and no change is required... because there is nothing in a tree that needs changing)....

Thanks for still putting up with my rambling.👋 😎 😁

3) if you still have questions regarding the software emanating from the great master Parsifal
just ask.

What are you, some kind of IT specialist?🙂

ramana maharsi

We already established that... what exactly are you copying here?🙂 🙂 🙂

PARSIFAL understands how EM has made a more significant impact somewhere today

What is wrong with you, writing about him in the third person like that?🙄

Nisargadat

Jose Reyes... I’m asking for your take on this man... is he actually enlightened???

Try a clean reinstall... seriously, grab the latest drivers too... then give it another shot.

Double-check the software... try testing it on a different machine (plug in the printer)... if it still fails, demand a replacement. You should be covered under warranty, right?

P.S. Which model are you running?

There is one truth: NO ENLIGHTENED being resembles ANOTHER
ENLIGHTENED BEING.

This leaves me scratching my head...?

In what sense do they not resemble one another? I just don't get it...

I mean, isn't there just one single "Master" within us all? Though, now that I think about it, does an enlightened person even possess a personality? If they do, then my point stands perfectly firm.

Master John has been a macrobiotic vegetarian for twenty-five years now—just some biographical context for the record.

Is this driven by some deep-seated internal compulsion, or what?

It’s funny how every single one of these "enlightened" types seems to be a vegetarian...

Is that some kind of prerequisite? Or just a coincidence?

😕

Look, I’m not a vegetarian myself... but I’ve reached a point where the whole idea of meat and killing is starting to turn my stomach.

I suppose that’s why I only care for heavily seasoned meat; I want it to taste more like smoke and paprika than actual flesh. 😎 😁

Somewhere in the ballpark of 95 percent... but honestly, does that even matter anymore?

Just drink more water to keep the kidneys functioning properly... plus, it actually helps with weight loss.

Pure nonsense. You absolutely have to stay hydrated. Drink plenty of fluids, consistently... Dehydration is nothing short of dangerous and detrimental to your health.😉 🙏

The fear walks into the bank with a bad case of indigestion.
Get out of here, you coward... just let it rip... go on, puff some air... you're on your own.

Am I just standing here alone in this mess?
I don't have a single buddy left to vent to.🙂🙂

Are you kidding me? It’s just one endless, pathetic cycle of hot air... nothing but pure, unadulterated nonsense.

🙂 🙂

Who taught you how to be so defensive, Bill Clinton?

Honestly, Joe.

Maybe our guy is Bill Clinton, but he was definitely backed by George Bush....

Microsoft... were you actually out at the protest yesterday?🙂

rapidskipper9... what do you say we grab some lasagna? My treat.😂

In case you weren't aware, even bears can't resist them.😉 😛

LASAGNA 4 EVER

I had no idea that was the correct spelling.😕 😲
