Namaste
There is a phrase that is the **stink of enlightenment**-- a prime example of it is .... Reaching a point where one can say all the right things BUT thinking one is above the world and now they are some type of higher being and that the world is going to cater to them... There is no **mundane** versus not, and no one is above the world --- one is in the world but not of it --- that doesn't mean above it though... it simply means that one is not deluded or drawn in or lost within some false view of the world... One enters into the Play of God --- it ALL becomes Lila no matter what one is doing it doesn't mean one runs away from responsibilities. That one is above it. Before Enlightenment one chops wood and carries water and AFTER enlightenment one chops wood and carries water... One doesn't bum around - speak flowery words and think that others should cater to them... Neither does it mean that you can do whatever you damn well please without consequences to your actions -- Karma for that one is still in place... There is nothing worse than to encounter the stink of enlightenment... One example of this was a supposed Enlightened Being that was procreating all over europe and then saying well it was the womens fault for sleeping with him as they knew he is not involved with anything - that he is in vairagya .. (That has nothing to do with Vairagya at all) Oh he traveled around giving Satsangs and they sounded good on the surface but there was no regard for honoring **any** responsibilities... After all responsibilities are for the unenlightened that are in the world... He is now above it... Let's look at another one -- Adi Da aka Ladi da... So above it all that he had a harem of women... Claimed to be above Jesus Christ and all other Guru's on the planet... Is that Enlightenment ? No it's having re-rooted into the stench of enlightenment ego... Does Enlightenment bring into place being beyond everything without consequences ? NO .... Does it make one a less authentic human being ? NO .... One becomes rather more Ordinary... Living life as it comes --- without fanfare --- without running away.. without grandiosity ... Another of these prime examples is Nithyananda --- claiming to be Enlightened and a Brahmachari and yet having sex with many of the devotees all the while claiming to be beyond it all and without desires or lust .... and having no responsibility to these actions... He is not Krishna reborn and that was not lila but sex pure and simple... He is defrauding the people in the name of Enlightenment... It stinks.... Maybe these guys had openings -- maybe the ultimate truth was seen... remembered ... spoke about... but a mind that is Still and Dead when within a Living Nirvikalpa Sahaja Samadhi is within a place where one lives a life of equity... of fairness to others. it's not about am out to satisfy myself first and foremost... after all i am the center of the universe --- i am the universe --- there are no others ..... This is the delusion of the grand spiritual cosmic ego... It is not the actions where there is no Me that remains to be entranced by chasing desires... Ones desires are now within the realm of Vairagya - dispassion.. One does not chase after them they no longer run the show... OM Shanti
