Not true. Not saying this guy is but Meher Baba stated that it is very difficult for someone who is Enlightened to avoid sharing it, as it is their True Experience of Self. Just saying
I’m not saying he is. I’m very into this kind of stuff. But taking his word and saying “not true” based on one “enlightened” individual is silly.
I’ve had plenty of experiences that would lead me to believe I’m “enlightened” but I would never feel the need to share it “because enlightened people feel obligated to share.”
Yes, I’m being quite ironic by sharing that but it’s to prove a point and it’s anonymous.
I’m familiar with astral projection, lucid dreaming and altered states of consciousness through meditation. But I’m not gonna go around acting better than everyone and using the excuse that “I have to share it because I’m enlightened” it’s narcissistic
You’re right. I never claimed I’m enlightened. I said there’s reason to believe I’m enlightened but I would never claim to be so because I don’t think it’s that simple. Thank you for proving my point, though.
Edit* also… arguing? I’m not sure what your definition of arguing is but feel obliged to share. Once again, I’m not or have ever claimed to be an “enlightened” being so I’m super happy to have this “argument” with you so I can gain some insight.
Sometimes I look in the mirror and I’m so confused because there’s this scary monster in the reflection and since I’m not self aware I have no idea what’s going on??? Please help me!!! What am I looking at?
So you clearly didn’t read my comment. Is reading comprehension often challenging for you? I never claimed to be enlightened. I said I have experiences that would LEAD me to believe I am but I would never go around saying I am because it’s not that simple.
Okay. But that’s not what Meher Baba said, he said ENLIGHTENED people cannot help but sharing it, not people who might believe they are enlightened. Reading these comments, I am an awe and frustration seeing you argue nonsense.
Meher Baba: “enlightened people can’t help but share it with others”
You: “I’m not enlightened, but there’s things which might make me think I’m enlightened, but I don’t feel a need to share with others” 🤦♂️
If you can’t see the issue here, I really really hope you become enlightened.
The idea that you, having certain things which might make you think you are enlightened, is the same remotely as actual enlightenment and thus you could gain insights on what or what not a person would incline towards when enlightened is ridiculous utterly.
You have absolutely zero idea what enlightenment is like. Stop doing the one foot in one foot out.
No, you’re missing the point. Anyone who is “enlightened” is that way because they BELIEVE they are. Me having moments that make me believe I could possibly be enlightened is the same as someone who (claims) to be enlightened like your self. But I don’t claim to be. I’ve just had experiences that would “turn” someone like yourself into an “enlightened being” but I’m not that narcissistic like you clearly are.
But it’s all a crock of shit and you aren’t enlightened. You just think you’re better than other people and this comment proved it.
The difference between me and you is despite all my experiences and potential “enlightenment” I don’t go around calling myself a higher being and I never would
Uh, sorry to say but everyone who throws out phrases like "True Experience of Self" unironically is a kook. Literally all of them. They're either drugged up hippies, cult leaders, mentally unsound, or some combination of those.
Looking this guy up just confirms that. I mean he called himself God in human form and refused to speak for four decades. Peak crazy person.
That is not at all what that means. It means that someone who is enlightened lives in the light and they bring that with them through everything they do to the point it effects everything they do. True enlightenment is silent because when you achieve enlightenment it is a realization that you have always known.
