I just want to add a little more to this straight-shooting commentary from our one and only, truly untouchable placidharbor7! In my opinion, he still hasn't quite shaken off—or rather, wrestled down—that fourth or fifth stubborn Zen-Bull that seems to be hovering over him. It’s not even bothering him, really; it's just standing there, refusing to let him get even an inch of progress, making it impossible for him to actually stare those fierce eyes down and "conquer" them so he can finally move forward.

placidharbor7 says: There is no DEVOTION without "recognizing" the Self, nor can there be any without "realizing" ONENESS.
And let me tell you, brothers and sisters, that is a massive MOMENT.
It’s that healing FLASH OF RECOGNITION regarding everything and anything, which must first be evidenced within your own being before you can truly grasp and practice TRUE DEVOTION. Not that pathetic, forced version we see from our sister Bernadette. That poor, typical Christian kind.

If you had actually read her book instead of just pulling random snippets out of context like this, you’d realize she’s saying the exact same thing!

The term 'Christian mystic'—that seems to be your hang-up—is why you're stuck on that possessive label. If you ignored that, maybe you could actually find something worth praising in her words!

🙄 😁

I mean, she could have been a Klingon for all I care, right?

Why does the label matter so much HERE?

That is the very essence and heart of placidharbor7's objection.

As for the book itself—a PROBUDJENOG person can read between the lines using just a single word.
If that word is about AWAKENING, then one single sentence is enough to prove the point, isn't it?

Regarding all these "Christian mystics," placidharbor7 has already pointed out what their fate holds.

If they lived in different eras, none of them would even be called "Christian."

Garota was always lurking in the shadows, truth seeker.

A million lies have been served up from that pit of despair.
And honestly? They are still being served up to this very day. 👋

The thing is, most people just recite that poor little definition from memory without actually understanding it.

Both that uneducated guy at the big enlightenment school and our friend Klimakos have mumbled it by heart, wouldn't you agree, truth seeker?

His whole sense of self only holds up because it’s reflecting his own version of God.
If our dear Klimakos were crawling on all fours through the darkness and dust of Christ's cave, don't you think he might eventually stumble upon the cloak of his Peggy?

How on earth is someone like that supposed to pull off the DISAPPEARANCE OF THE DUCKS?👋

Hey, Jane's master of trick questions,
honestly, I feel like my question was a bit pointless—I mean, if it actually made sense, you probably would have had an answer ready for me!

So why don't you go ahead and throw a real, "meaningful" question my way instead?🙂

Is this just another one of those clever little riddle-style responses where you're basically warning me that my question doesn't even make sense in the first place?

When it comes to REAL questions, a REAL master gives a REAL answer.

Do you actually know, deep down, that your own question is "pointless"?
If you truly DO know that, then isn't this just another one of those "tricks" used by a truth seeker?
Why even bother with the "tricks"?

Because if you DON'T actually know whether your own question is "pointless," then why on earth are you assuming that placidharbor7 sees it that way?🙂

So, what exactly is the "PURPOSE" of "EVERYTHING THAT IS," truth seeker?🙂

Hey there, placidharbor7 from NYC,
don't you think a spiritual student actually needs a guide? Someone who can use their own wisdom and life experience to (to put it poetically) point out which doors they need to walk through—without necessarily spoiling what’s waiting on the other side?
_____________

The truth is, nobody needs anything, and I mean NOBODY, Truth Seeker.
All this talk of "needs" and "necessities" is nothing more than unlubricated Microsoft gears in the machinery of the mind.
That friction is what we call "chaos" or just plain old "struggle."

When someone truly decides to walk alongside a TEACHER, the TEACHER is "granted" to them.
But if someone insists on walking "ALONE," there isn't a chance in the world that any "TEACHER" will ever cross their path.

And look, whether it happens this way or that way? Well, neither "YOU" can dictate that, nor can you even "perceive" it yet.
Everything will be handed to you on a silver platter, provided you stay observant and humble, Truth Seeker.

SPIRITUAL DRIFTERS FROM THE MUDDY WATERS.

Through which specific senses can our "materialized self"—this little ego consciousness—ever hope to perceive the PURE, ABSOLUTE, and SUPRA-PERSONAL reality?

Honestly, this kind of mindless babbling is an embarrassment to the very TITLE of this prestigious SUBFORUM.
In placidharbor7's GREAT SCHOOL OF ENLIGHTENMENT, every single question regarding this infantile spirituality is answered during a massive THREE-HOUR INTRODUCTORY BLOCK the moment you even step foot in the SCHOOL.

You all are just wasting your breath on nothing but ESOTERIC futility here.
Try to construct a PSYCHOLOGICAL PORTRAIT of a guru if you think you can. All you'll end up with is a PHOTO-MONSTER that is significantly STUPIDER than any of you!
How on earth is something like that supposed to inspire you, you spiritual slackers, huh?!🙄

Am I really not allowed to swing by and say hello to the one and only Dr. Elon Musk?😎
