    Shame.  That's interesting you offered that.  I think you have an issue with shame.  I don't.

    I meant "thats a shame" as in, its too bad you write me off when im giving you something you could actually examine about yourself.

    Wow is right buddy!  You love this.  You're doing it.  I'm riding this "wave".  Such energy coming from you.  I feel like a pro surfer in Hawaii riding the wave you're creating.  It's a blast for now, but there's nothing sustainable that comes out it this.  It's like doing 5-Meo-DMT and getting a taste of God for 10 Minutes rather than having it all the time.

    Only if you arent willing to look at the deeper implications of what im saying.  You totally could!  And it could be rewarding!

    I'm totally calm.  You started this.  

    I was pointing out that you seemed to get upset about something you thought was being said in the sandcastle poem, but that thing was your own pure invention.  You took it personally.  And then proceeded to accuse others of that.  If you are actually here to learn(about yourself) and open up, you could actually ask yourself why that happened.

    Yes.  Bingo.  Now you can discard my views from your view in your own mind.  Issue resolved.  Move along now.  You're good.  Ignore me, you're fine.   Take or leave my content folks and please don't take it so personally.  It's all coming from my perspective.  All I'm trying to do is tell my truth on here.  If that offends you, look at yourself!  If this community isn't welcome to my perspective, I should know this sooner rather than later.   Different online communities have different rules depending on who's in control and what their personal objective is.

    Take a breath my man.  This is ALL in your own head.  None of what you said is actually what is happening here.

    Wow... why are you being so haughty about everything?

    What happened to you?

    Yes.  Somewhat.  It depend whether you want to teach others or not.  If you're cool with your attainment then you can go that route.  If you want to be social and share then that opens up a different envelope.

    Can you interact socially and share your views, experience, without "teaching"?  Is being "cool with your attainment" mutually exclusive with interacting with people?  Btw didnt you used to have videos?

    Bla bla bla bla.  Do you see it?  None of this affect me.  And none of this should affect you.  Do you understand?  ❤️

    Sounds to me like you got triggered by a poem... by a total misreading of one

    Triggered straight into the Sun,

    Aline that Fear with the Love,

    None other then the One,

    Two appear,

    But who really steers?

    Fate is the only one I see.

    Laying back drinking tea,

    Turning this stew into poo,

    Enlightenment is just this pee,

    I’m pissing into the wind,

    Devolve all sense of sin,

    Compassion is the only win.

     

    Are you calling me a poo drinking tea bag!? How DARE you...

    Talk to me in 12 years...

    Cause you need 2 more than i do

    Wow.  I must be pretty stupid then.  Try harder maybe.  I don't know.  We're all coming from different perspectives.  I'm not trying to teach.  I resist it.  But if I'm going to post on here I must be myself.  Let me know if I'm unwelcome here now and I'll leave.  I'm cool with my attainment and I don't need to persuade others.  Otherwise take or leave what I say.  It shouldn't matter much to you.  It matters to me.   I'm  trying to help from my perspective.

    Im picking up on a lot of insecurity here.  It just seemed like you were responding to an assumed subtext that wasnt really there, thats all.

    I understand.  But your wave is still a sand castle.  Poetry doesn't conceal or transcend anything.  I could cough in response to someone's statement and consider that a wave too.  But that's a concealed statement as well -- a concealed sand castle as you phrased it.  Your intention to win or to be supreme to me is the thing that's noted.  So you're harboring a position and clinging to it and getting triggered when someone differs from that.  Nobody is trying to take anything away from you, and that shouldn't matter to you if you are certain in your attainment.  What I say is entirely my perspective.  What you say should be solid to you.  That's what removes defensiveness and spiritualized ego.

    Yeah, honestly, what are you even talking about? The poetry thing is a bit pretentious, but you seem to be  responding to something that is not being said or implied at all.

    Precisely because of the apparent nature of the finite mind there isn’t an equivalent. So analogously it’s like sharing from one’s trip to the peninsula of Hawaii. One who’s been to Hawaii might notice something is off there. 

    So...you cant explain what you meant by the mind cant go somewhere it hasnt been.  Does that mean it cant ever go anywhere...that seems to be the implication...has it ever been anywhere?  Or do you just mean you cant know what you havent learned..  leaving open the possibility that you can learn.  You cant speculate?  You cant say anything about "enlightenment" if you are not "enlightened" yet?

    There's no question that work in spiritual enlightenment has improved my emotions and health.  But I'm still the same too.  It's the same experience just recontextualized or uncontextualized (it depends on ideas present or not).  Thus, everything is still here including all the things the ego dislikes, e.g., pain, confrontation, survival, fighting, suffering, anger, rage, death, material existence, the past, memory, etc.  It's the ego that wants to be blissed out and happy all the time -- of course!  But that's not reality.  That's a wish.  That's an idea in the mind.  If you have this, then someone else is probably supporting you financially to the extent that you can have these more of the time.  But if you're the person who has to go out into the world and make a living, life is never this easy, nor should it be.  It's best (from my perspective) to let the negative stuff be here and then learn to deal with that part of life as well as pursuing no-ego. 

    Spiritual materialism.  I dont think you really get it.
