The Enlightenment Trap | The Hidden Trap this State Presents
Divinity manifests through superlative awareness, devotion, and effort—a direct materialization of Spirit attained only when Self journeys beyond the confines of Self.
Hello, and welcome to the Ancient wisdom modern mind podcast and today I would like to share my view on the enlightenment trap and hidden deception in this path.
The disciple through devotion and discipline strives to become a Witness of their humanity and its self awareness. Seeking the state of unified awareness, the 8th state of beingness, often simply called Enlightenment.
The traditional concept of enlightenment comes from the spiritual traditions of India notably the various schools of Yoga, Vedanta and Buddhism and denotes the highest state of spiritual attainment. Spiritual enlightenment is a sudden experience which makes it hard to define as the experiences vary from person to person.
Ego or Self explores itself through 7 states of Self-awareness “this is called Humanness” and from the moment we are born we indulge this game playing state. Seeking the state of unified awareness, the 8th state of beingness, often simply called Enlightenment, We strive to become a Witness of our humanity.
This 8th state of awareness is beyond human comprehension, for how can man comprehend the nature of enlightenment and simultaneously be fully permissive. Through devotion we transform the self and become a Witness, a gate keeper to the Absolute.
The enlightened Witness is now trapped in the 8th state of oneness, trapped within the Non Self, condemned to observe. But in this perceiving of the absolute, the Witness is blind to the 9th state of non being. The enlightened Witness is now trapped in the 8th state of oneness, trapped within the Non-Self, condemned to observe, an eternal Witness of their God.
So that’s the “The enlightenment Trap”, If this topic is new to you and you need clarification, please listen to the podcast until the end and you can ask me questions in the comments.
