I'm not sure, master, where you got the idea that none of his students awakened during his lifetime. I guess maybe you read some statistics somewhere, or perhaps you're just using those psychic abilities of yoursβthe same ones you used to decide that dusΛan is an addict?
I have no idea where you got the idea that none of his followers awakened during his lifetime, placidharbor7. Did you find some specific statistic in a book somewhere, or are you just using those "psychic abilities" of yoursβthe same ones you used to decide that Richard Walker79 is an addict?

Richard Walker79 said:Honestly, none of that really matters because enlightenment is a deeply personal journey.

He observes everything under the sun, except for himself.

placidharbor7 suggests appointing the High Faculty Council of The Enlightenment of the West to recognize the active and dedicated Dusanβour very own Duskecaβas a master.
For several years now, our dear Dugousko has been here quite touchingly, working tirelessly and intensely to present endless Scyllas and Haridbes regarding INNER TRANSFORMATION, relentlessly chasing his own clarity of being.
placidharbor7 implores everyone not to take offense at this functional, euphoric emphasis on "his daily happiness," which, to put it simply, means establishing a standard of peace within the very existence of AWAKENING itself.

Just wrap your arms around it tight... there's a storm brewing... you hit the nail on the head with that 'personal thing' comment... it's just as real and present as the person actually feeling it and making it their own, haha...π π π

driftingwolf45 said:Master, I checked out your school. I saw your reply where you said I should come by so you could bend me over enface. Gay? Who would've thought?
Instead of an answerβwell, don't be lazy. Just watch and listen to another one of Osho's enlightened souls. If you've ever met Osho in person, maybe you'll feel how
the old master lives on through this enlightened student.

Look at this guyβa banned clone who spends every single day addicted to this forum from sunrise to sunset... and then at night, he's probably dreaming about Richard Walker79 or Osho... π
placidharbor7 said:The master gay kicked Richard Walker79 out of the school, so heβs refusing to respond under his name. If you want an answer, check the school. Enface.

PUPA16 said:The significance of hemp-based intoxication is actually supported by how widespread certain Iranian terms are throughout Central Asia. In many Altaic languages, the Persian word for hemp, *bangha*, began to signifyβif I may offer my own observation hereβa literal shamanic mushroom. We're talking about *Amanita muscaria* (which was likely used as an intoxicant before or during a ritual session), or even just the state of being drunk itself... terms like *pannkh*, *panga*, or *pongo* all translating to "mushroom." In Northern Gul, *pankh* also means "drunkenness." These linguistic clues suggest that using intoxication for ecstatic purposes has deep Iranian roots...But what does this tell us about the original shamanic experience?Drugs are merely a substitute for "pure" trance.We have already observed among various indigenous groups that substances like alcohol, tobacco, or even modern concoctions involving things like codeine syrup and tranquilizersπ , ARE LATER INNOVATIONS THAT, IN A WAY, UNDERLINE THE DECLINE OF SHAMANIC TECHNIQUE. THROUGH NARCOTIC INTOXICATION, ONE ATTEMPTS TO IMITATE A CERTAIN SPIRITUAL STATE THAT CAN NO LONGER BE REACHED BY OTHER MEANS. It is essentially the degradation or vulgarization of a once-mystical technique...π
