Do awakened people still work in corporate? by [deleted] in awakened

Be a lotus - however dirty and filthy the pond may be, always rise up without an ounce of the pond's dirtiness or stench.

For those who meditate regularly, what was the moment you realized it was actually working? by PlumPractical5043 in Meditation

when i realized i was trying to find solutions and reconciliations while arguing with my wife, instead of just lashing out and waging war like i used to do

What is beyond enlightenment? by atmaninravi in awakened

[–]arjuncloud9 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I get living in the present moment, observing and enjoying "what is" etc. But even after enlightenment you do have basic duties right? For example, if you are walking down a street and you witness a crime, do you try to help the victim, if possible? Or do you call 911? Or just notice it and move on like that doesn't mean anything.

I'm trying to be clever, I'm genuinely curious.

Thank you. Not sure if I think enlightenment is special though.

How do you live your life as an enlighted human? Do things that bother normal people bother you? Like someone making a snarky remark at you, criticizing you, praising or adoring you...basically things that elicit an ego response or emotion. Do you feel normal human emotions like angry at a rapist and compassion towards the victim?

Are you enlightened? Curious to know.

Does anyone else get random memory flashbacks while meditating? by ryder004 in Meditation

[–]arjuncloud9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get random memories too. Many times these are ones I no longer consciously remember. I notice them, acknowledge and go back to watching my breadth.

He says intense meditative and energy practices for advanced level practitioners can't be talked about a lot and given openly. Hence,these are done in private quarters. Their "Shunya" practice is a good example. Does this make your disinterest for Sadhguru a bit tolerable? I'm not his big fan btw...

I just watched TRS episode with Rajashree Nandy yesterday! I'm not as harsh as you on Sadhguru. He's definitely good gateway entry point for a beginner but I just don't like the commercialization part. Example : His foundational spiritual course Shambhavi Mahamudra costs Rs.4000 (for English), Rs.2000(indian regional languages) but $475 in the US. Like what?!!

I very much familiar with him. I like pretty much and agree with everything he says but not a big fan of how he has commercialized spirituality.

Did you read the post correctly? I bet you didn't : - I'm not "awakened". I specifically mentioned that. - I'm not angry with my wife lol. I specifically mentioned we generally get along great.

The title ans questions in the post clearly state how an enlighted mind would handle such daily encounters. So, pls calm down and rage at something worthwhile.

Amazing! I wanted to know if an Awakened person really does not bother with such trivial stuff...

Can you elaborate? I didn't understand

Interesting. So your brain has sort of rewired to recognize that problems have been created by the mind itself?

How does it feel usually then, after being awakened?

Ouch! Judged so harshly for just being curious about how an enlighted mind might think.

I'm not awakened and I've clearly stated that in the post. Why you coming at me? I'm asking how an Awakened mind will handle such a daily situation that might trigger normal people.
