"Brah"

enlightenment is not permanent. enlightenment is not special. it doesnt change who you are, where you came from, or where you're going.

there is no liberation, because there is no cage. that is enlightenment.

or not.

It is exactly my ability not to look forward to some imagined future scenario that has quelled my preoccupation with "the beginning".

I also have the mind that enables one to perceive two contradictory points of knowledge simultaneously -- the mind that allows for the existence of paradox without resistance. Unless you have that mind as well, you will find my positions unacceptable.

"We must....", "...deserve...", "Learn to yearn...", "under the premise of acting..", "spiritual no-no". These beliefs are largely based on the aspects of your being that remain conditioned by the societally perpetuated "punishment and reward" system. It is simply a more sophisticated version of religious fundamentalism: "If I do enough "good deeds" my place in heaven will be secured", "If I don't allow myself to indulge in my negative qualities, my positive qualities will be reinforced", etc. etc.. Suffice it to say, all of the virtuous qualities that you make reference to above are natural expressions of the liberated state of being.

When I have a beer, my feeling of euphoric existing is diminished substantially, no doubt because I have consciously embodied the qualities that are normally induced by an inebriated state and no longer require external stimulus in order to experience them.

Well for everyone else in the world besides radar, they dont

 

So, let me get this straight right quick brah. When you have a beer, your state of eternal trascendental bliss is diminshed? May I ask why? besides the damage to health from over indulgence of course.
Mind you, Im not talking about full blown intoxication either

 

I used to think like that, very recently in fact. It's because I was not able to maintain certain states when altered with certain substances.

Just as I was unable to cope with the input of entities called 'alcohol' into my cranium and maintain oneness, i was not able to cope with other entities like 'people i hate' and other things like that, while maintaining my oneness. Then it just clicked for me . . . I am that, as well!

And now I am an alcoholic. WIN
