Enlightenment is only an idea. Thousands of people claim it but don’t actually have it. So what moves so many of us to keep pursuing an illusion?
We start out trying to walk the spiritual path. It doesn’t exist and neither do we. We have been double-crossed.
When I heard Vernon Howard yell at us, “You don’t exist!” I knew that he knew the truth. But the truth is that the ego can’t get at it and he knew that, too.
Human beings have egos and they certainly do as much harm as good. There is no blame assigned to anyone. Fear motivates the machine to keep running.
Now I will return to my day at home in January. The sky is gray and I sit here looking at the disorder on my desk. I have been watching Trump get dumped, which is quite gratifying.
I need to shower and get dressed, but I had a cup of coffee and a Liebkuchen with it. Such a treat.
Today my thoughts will range from spiritual to earthly. I will sit in silence, more than likely. God is hiding in there.
I will turn on the TV and sit in front of it for hours watching the end of the Trump Era. It is a fascinating view of a demented and sinister mind.
One more thing about enlightenment. I know and I don’t know and that is the bottom line.
Enlightenment is only an idea.
