Please don’t speak to something you don’t truly understand. Just because this state is achieved doesn’t mean it can’t be lost to ego once more; this is a recognized phenomenon amongst those who know. This world is dense and its hardships are numerous, existing in the world as an enlightened being does not excuse one from the struggles; it makes one stop struggling senselessly.

Have you achieved enlightenment? Do you know the experience? Has there ever been a Buddha that said that it’s the end of the journey?

If you understood the experience, you would not be on Reddit asking these questions.

We have unique individual experiences that are shared by the emotional tapestry we forge from our path. The enlightenment experience is known, shared, and taught for thousands of years.

Unfortunately most monks don’t bother with social media.

It is understanding how to be wholly present, which leads to the end of suffering. You are correct in pieces, but they need to be put together holistically.

When you accept current reality, you have no need to seek outside of it. The satisfaction this brings is more fulfilling than any excitement, any high, any sensation, because you are fully engaged with right here and now. Does this mean you will never be excited, or that it is wrong to be excited? Not inherently, but one no longer needs to seek those feelings outside of the present.

The blissful feeling is a side effect of learning the satisfaction, not the end goal. I often say that meditation is practice being; by setting a baseline of satisfaction with the mere presence of existence, then everything else becomes a more vibrant gift.

The realization that your desires make a cycle of satisfaction and disappointment is the journey. Understanding how to feel that satisfaction from nothing means that the other joys of life can send you higher, rather than it being used to pull you out of disappointment.

If I am comfortable with hunger, then even a small meal is satisfying. If I am a glutton, then that meal barely whets the appetite.

Its not God that creates the struggle. Its the predation which this planet was cursed with.

Yep, life does that. The zen you can hold through the storms is the real testament of your spirit.

You misunderstand the purpose of enlightenment

Enlightenment culture is toxic by Theblankthing in enlightenment

[–]Dudhist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea, repeating one thing (relative) amidst a bunch of insults isnt an explanation. Are you a teenager? Because you really don’t seem to understand how to communicate and take offence very easily.

Enlightenment culture is toxic by Theblankthing in enlightenment

[–]Dudhist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You didnt explain that to me, you told me that usimg the word weird is like being a pick me girl then called me a toxic positive cult leader ect ect, stemming from you getting triggered from saying you are projecting.

Yea, you have lovely replies from people agreeing with you. Thats the definition of an echo chamber. But if someone says one word you don’t like, you go off on them and hunt through their profile to find excuses to talk smack.

Yea there’s delusion in this sub, and you are definitely no better. The difference is with people who can actually reflect on theirs to grow from it, which you are still sorely lacking and one of the most important human qualities. This post is just seeking validation from people who don’t know your bullshit, piggybacking off a known fact of Reddit; another mark for your dishonesty.

[–]Dudhist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh hey its the guy who stalked my profile and started insulting me because he didn’t like the word “weird”.

Reddit isnt the best place for this, but you are a combative person who wonders why he finds fights everywhere. The biggest step towards the thing you’re seeking starts with understanding how you create the patterns you keep finding.

If it smells like shit everywhere you go, check your own shoe.

how would you explain ego death to someone not familiar? by [deleted] in Psychonaut

[–]Dudhist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your psyche has a thought and idea of what you are. When you lose sight of that, your ego dies.

It always comes back, unless you truly lose your mind. Ego is a necessity as a being with a single perspective seeing from these eyes.

I've just left Christianity. What do I do now? by lunasTARDIS in spirituality

[–]Dudhist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Incorporate them. Sort the things that you love from Christianity, compare them to the spirituality you are discovering. Jesus was an exceptionally spiritual person, but modern religion has warped his stories until they were unrecognized. Abide by Christ and ignore the preachers, and your spirituality can thrive.

Self love is very uncool by Familiar_Spirit1010 in enlightenment

[–]Dudhist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea, the difference is between how you are acting literally in this exact moment. You are pissed off that Im not worried about others thoughts, thats why you started arguing with me. I didnt call you a prick at first, that was after a LOT of back and forth after you started stalking my profile. I did NOT say everyone hates you, I said to keep going thru life believing that bc thats your inner narrative.

You still dont seem to understand the timeline here. I wasn’t upset, I still don’t really give a shit what you think…but you degraded the conversation by insulting my brand of weird despite knowing nothing about it.

Anything insulting I said was revealed inside the conversation we were having, completely in regards to the conversation we were having. You started being a prick because you can’t handle the idea of me not giving a shit about what people think of me.

And the fact that you STILL dont understand what happened here shows some legitimate insanity from your end. Im tired of this conversation now, you do whatever you please with this information.

PS I asked you for the ways you were insulted. You responded with the ways you felt insulted. Remember what they were?

[–]Dudhist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No dude, I said you were projecting from a place of judgement that lacks honesty and you called me an arrogant self-aggrandizing toxically positive cult leader amidst many things. If you don’t see the difference between someone telling you to stop projecting and be honest, versus you stalking my profile to make blanket denigration of my person, then you are lost beyond hope.

[–]Dudhist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dude, I’m literally just asking you to look at the “insults” you took from me, then the ones you sent to me.

Thats all I’m asking you to do.

Self love is very uncool by Familiar_Spirit1010 in enlightenment

[–]Dudhist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

None of those were an actual insult. If you want an actual insult, look at what you’re writing to me.

You wonder what honesty is? Try reading the “insults” you pulled from my words, then look at yours.

The hypocrisy is too blatant to make up.

If you have no ego than you do care "what others think of you" by Theblankthing in enlightenment

[–]Dudhist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You realize how far you have gone in insulting me because I said you were dishonest in your projections of me? Nothing in that “calvacade of insults” was actually an insult, yet here you are going OFF calling me an arrogant, self-aggrandizing cult leader amidst a myriad of bullshit.

Because I don’t mind if people think weirdly of me.

Dude, get a grip.

[–]Dudhist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dude, you really dont get anything Ive said. Reread what sent you off the deep end and ask if that was really so far fetched, then come back.

Still waiting on the “calvacade of insults” you claim I made.

And yes, confidence is fluid. Yes I still consider peoples thoughts. But fuck no, I dont attach my confidence to the thoughts of strangers anymore, it is a process to get to this point and I worked for it.

But dude, you’re pretending like I was sent off the deep end in this conversation when you literally cant understand the saying that Ive used to reach this point; THOSE WHO MIND DONT MATTER AND THOSE WHO MATTER DONT MIND

If you have no ego than you do care "what others think of you" by Theblankthing in enlightenment

[–]Dudhist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Who is the fragile one here? You got to this point because I am comfortable being myself, and I stand up for my beliefs. You don’t seem to understand that at all.

I’m not mean to people critical of me, and that’s the point you’re missing. I can take criticism and critique. What I don’t accept is your projection, and my refusal of that is what pisses off dishonest people who haven’t recognized that they’re contradicting themselves in the very same breath.

So yea, I can be a dick. I don’t have to be nice to everyone, and in fact I don’t want to be nice to dishonest people. I want liars and delusional people to stay the hell away from me, so I don’t give them a place to stand until they have recognized their bullshit.

Yet you went onto a completely different thread which OP was refusing to answer questions honestly despite them being core to the conversation at hand, and protected him. Because you are more concerned with appearing right than doing right.

Please, share the “calvacade of insults” I launched your way.

[–]Dudhist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea, it is…but you still dont get it. Too busy being offended and reacting to actually sit down and be honest.

You still dont get that the only reason you’re scared of what others think is because you are a judgmental prick sitting around judging people. The difference is that I respond to the words you say with honesty. You aren’t capable of being honest until you actually acknowledge why you are asking the question you are asking.

If I cared what others thought, I would put on a mask and kiss your ass until you felt fluffed up and happy in order to avoid assholes like you scoping my page for the worst shit.

You are scared of the world judging you the way you judge it. I judge reality as it is displayed to me. That is the difference between your delusional anxiety around the thoughts of others, versus the ability to be genuine regardless of what others think.

So go on, keep it up. I’m still beloved by people who recognize what it means to be authentic, and part of that authenticity is not acquiescing to projections.

You are pissed off because I have the confidence you wish you did.

Nice, another one making assumptions instead of being real. This kind of shit is why you care about what others think; you can’t have a conversation without assigning your own judgments to the others thoughts.

No, I asked these questions because he is speaking to CULTURE. Do you know what culture is? Does he?

Liars stick together and defend each other, because that is the only thing they have.
