    Thank you for an excellent definition of enlightenment from your perspective the best I've heard. I also relate to certain experiences

    You're absolutely right about everything. Indeed enlightenment entails being calm when facing aversion, and also enforcing your limits as you said. I also agree that there's no such thing as being perfect while incarnate and the enlightened being is of course aware and honest about the limitations of it's flesh and mind and always working to improve knowing it will never be finished and perfect.
    But I'd argue that there is such a state we could call enlightenment where in agreement with all that you said let's call being fully perfected the 100%, but maybe somewhere along the 90% or whatever number the person has already succeeded in raising it's conscious energy to the crown and has stablished the "halo" that metatron alludes to through you in your video channeling a message from him recently.
    A point where you've developed your spiritual understanding, emotional understanding and yes you will keep improving, but because you're learning new mundane things, fields of knowledge, activities etc
    Of course I have yet to meet such a person and I too am still not at that point. But I do believe those exist. I do believe it can be reached and lived. And yeah, that person would for sure not advertise it in a marketing campaign for money.
    Basically I agree with everything you said but I think people shouldn't think of it as impossible like I felt you were close to implying.

    My contact with the Divine made me crazy for long spell; waking up and self mastery are different, IMHO: I agree with you

    Your caricature of the enlightened one basically fit me to a T and how I’ve lived 90% of my life. I’m not trying to be enlightened or whatever though, I couldn’t care less. It’s just the life circumstances I ended up in from an early age and my natural temperament.

    I just wanted to praise you, this has been the best source of enlightenment that I have found!!! It sucks you have been there, but only found your channel with the "why I don't work with demons" video while it was trending! I am so happy I have found your channel!!! I am starting them from the beginning, so trying not to do any spoilers watching new ones, but wow you cover everything I want to know, Gospel of Saint Thomas is amazing... I love watching your channel from the start, to get a better understanding of the background of topics discussed!! I really like how you speak intelligently, and slow at points to understand, I feel I can share that thought process, being an Australian too, instead of RAM RAM RAM down your throat with American channels... I really appreciate you being here!!!! Thank you so much for your Channel!!! I subscribed and will see how else I can support you! I started getting worried you have more content faster than I can watch them, but that is a beautiful thing! I really love your work!!!! Cheers from NSW Australia! Your channels sings to what is correct for me, I have tried both sides too and to be honest still stuck in the dark (edit exploring the dark things you have, to have knowledge), everything you say is true, I love how you have the experience to actually say what you say,... Love and Blessings for this channel, thank you!!!!!!!
    Drunk EDIT:
    also another quick edit, can you please do a clip on psychedelics, as well as all cultures using it to reach their own divinity, I find myself it is the closet I have got to experience the 'impersonal divine' and it is so beautiful!!! - I loved how you debated personal vs impersonal - I am at early stages through your work - I love the psychedelics, but is it cheating? I see different things each time, and a few things stay consistent, like sometimes time stops, like with DMT, and sometimes you are part of vast universe, and sometimes it feels like a CELL part of an organism but it still feels fun - sorry this is a "aussie drunk edit" but I would love to hear your opinions about psychedelics - is it cheating or is it valid? I find being a slacker that is the closet I can actually feel the universe" - is that wrong?
    Sorrry for the drunk edit. I'd love your opinion on this

    All excellent points. last year at almost exactly this date, I had very "saturnian" experience that shattered any idea I had about what consciousness and the cosmos at large actually is and how it functions. Essentially it was a mental crucifixion where inner and outer experiences merged inexplicably, like God was staring me in the eyes. Random people would say things that where direct answers to or continuations of narratives established through internal visionary experiences with an "entity". Choices I had made almost a decade before worked thematically into this experience in a way that makes me question if my ego ever had effectual agency at all. We are all little fractal iterations of the all, what the all is doing at the place "we are", and there is quite literally nowhere else to be. Yet all my financial and health challenges remain and my capacity to cope with them is unchanged. I like what Alan Watts said about how if someone had no vices or attachments at all, they'd simply cease to manifest.

    Our boy with another banger on a Saturday. I’m in this weird phase where I was gifted with visions, the kind you see as you do now, but your eyes are closed and I’m being revealed all kind of information to decipher. Book of Abramelin. Kathara Grid. Stargates…idk there’s so much. Qaballah. Baphomet being a symbol not a satanic symbol, Cathars fleeing to the Templar and Templar adopting their knowledge and symbols and getting wiped out.
    I’m im a purgatory where I’m treading water carefully as to remain balanced in my life, not become obsessed and affect my relationships. I’m trying to achieve balance and am taking the story of Crowley and the JPL NASA guy as a cautionary tale. Early Crowley works make so much sense, it reads like one being awakened. Then somehow somewhere Crowley falls off the deep end and seemingly goes psychotic. Delving too far into the demonic realm. So this video is perfect for me right now.

    An awakening person imo who understands humanity, our actions and why we do what we do, in the workplace would help explain those behaviors to others in ways that would negate judgement and facilitate understanding. I have tried to shape my life around this principle and it’s anazing to me just how much judgement and preconception once rectified brings peace to chaos. Engaging in gossip is low vibrations and intensifies chaos and it will bite you back.
    When I continue to defend all and explain people the best I can, it feels like the universe respects that and this gives me the opportunities to protect myself and others from the low vibrations that would have otherwise gotten me fired

    A psychopathic narcissist also does not respond emotionally to people around him/her either. I always wonder how people know someone else is enlightened. It seems that they take their word for it or someone told them who heard it from someone else or read it somewhere and it somehow becomes unquestioned common knowledge. I saw on Quora where someone introduced himself as, "My name is so and so and I am an enlightened being". And he had a huge following on Discord. I joined for a day or so until I saw the writing on the wall. There are so many people who want to find someone to follow who has the magic pill to enlightenment. It also reminds me about wondering why people who belong to religious organizations assume that their religious leaders know more about God, consciousness, existence, the universe, etc. than anyone else. It's just a human created hierarchy where one person passes down theological ideas down to another and receives a title or position within that organization. And theology is really just human constructed opinion about God and reality and being educated in all the opinions about God does not necessarily mean they are closer to God than anyone else.

    Finally a guy that have clearly experienced certain powers and have knowed that it's better don't go deep into certain energies, cause like for our body and our psychological unconscious minds a little trauma could create a damage for all our life, what a broken soul and a damaged inner world could do to our daily life?

    Thanking someone for the abuse. That’s where the Cathars messed up imo. I believe in pacifism, but in balance everybody needs to have a degree of lethality about them. Being lethal and dangerous and able to protect yourself and others, but refraining and using alternative methods for resolution of conflict is control.

    glad to know i'm NOT an example of the "jesus wears blue jeans" -tyoe . . . all peace eye/no meat. if anything, i could be accused of pretension, early promises lacking weight or verbosity. 'blissed out types' who aren't able to compete in everyday nomenclature, who are tone def, who don't realize the importance of conversation & what a value intimacy is--those people always kind of scare me, it's like they've got the 'blissed out stare' . . . but there's NO ONE there.

    Realizing you’re The One in They Live while getting like Maeve and exiting WestWorld before being sacrificed like Shadow Moon in American Gods even though Lord Asriel’s snow leopard daemon Stelmaria is erected at The UN because it’s no guardian at all… and if you’re not grounded the Agent Smith’s will gang stalk you as you break your MK ultra… while they fashion more documentaries like Blink Twice. It’s definitely not all unicorns and butterflies but there will be some rainbows…

      @@DodgerzdenYes, exactly.
      The word “enlightened” is thrown around in modern vernacular to represent a very shallow individual who claims to have an all-seeing ability to know the answer to everything. He describes it in this video.
      The person who commented this is not accustomed to accuracy of definition such as this man is using, and assumes that “enlightened” = authority on a subject = egoistic.
