    The way was long and hard, but after using my brilliant mind to achieve a complete and totally perfect understanding of absolutely everything, I am now a supreme being. But please, no worship... for I am only but a vessel, and so too are you.

    The truth is there is no truth, and there are many ways. Reality is merely an illusion that will, like everything, inevitably reach its final goal. So I wish you peace and harmony... keep meditiating and maybe one day, when you least expect it, I'm going to come into your house while you're sleeping and brutally butcher your ego for you!

    You're not old enough to be the one that did it to me.

    My body is young, but my mind is eternal. Maybe you didn't know this because you're not as enlightened as me. But that's okay, one day you will be! But be careful, because not everyone is as strong and wise and vibrant as I am, so it will be very dangerous for someone like you to get to my level. But don't worry, you will do it! I have complete faith in you... there are many ways to the final destination, and you must choose your own footsteps... however there will be guides and wise men (like me, I'm both) along the way who will help you...

    PS:
    Hey RELAYER! I'm good. I just got back from the bamboo forest... yes, there was a fair chunk of bamboo there. What's new with you? Also, because I forgot to say it on Monday: Happy Buddha's Birthday! And El Topo is a fantastic film!

    Your mind is not eternal, it belongs to the body. When the body dies, the minds dies with it. Then the genie comes out of the bottle.

    Hi heywood floyd,
    I heard that an enlightened being appears in the world once every 3000 years. You said you attained spiritual enlightenment, but before anyone can accept your claim of enlightenment you'll have to show the proof. Where & what is the evidence of your enlightenment?
    Thanks
    Paul

    Enlightened people are more common than you might suspect. Every single year.

    Few of them have any in interest in power, so you won't see them high profile positions.

    To be anything other than being is to seprate yourself from everything. You're no genius, you havent achieved anything. Enlightenment is a dream, an illusive desire to achieve something which seems unachievable. There's no me,no you. Don't you see? Are you close? Wake up :) Stop being another. You're no different, you simpy think you are. Don't think anymore. Live.

    No, my mind is not my own, it is God's mind now, and it is not a mind, because there are no minds, however I will call it a mind because I have no spirit, because everything is a spirit and I was calling attention to that fact.

    If you were enlightened like me you would realize that.

    You are still separating yourself. You may have realised truth but I wonder if you have actually experienced it yet. All signs point to no.

    No, I am an enlightened genius, and it is common for those who are not to misunderstand or envy my achievement... and seek to discredit it.

    I say 'enlightened' because I am one and know that everything is one, it is not something I am because there is no 'I' to be, however for the purposes of communication I must use a word to describe it, so it will have relevance for those still lost in the illusions of duality.

    I am awake as well, and I'm sorry you're not, because if you were, you would know that I speak great truth.

    One person declaring their enlightenment and genius is funny.
    Two or more people fighting over whether someone is an enlightened genius is just kinda tragic.

    Notice the contradictions? I understand that you know who you are, however, from experience, there is a distinct difference between knowing and experiencing. You know that everything is one, but have you experienced oneness?If you have then you would surely not be proclaiming yourself as genius, or enlightened, or anything other. Don't you see? We, us, me, you, are all interchangeable words to describe that which connects us, the only thing which can define us is that we are what we are, being, the now, this, the reading of this writing, the feelings, the awareness that is aware of itself. You are me, I am you. These things cannot be truly objectified and claimed through egoism, because they cause separation. There may be a plateau of knowledge, where you believe you have come to some secret knowledge, and this is in part true, however, to fully understand the knowledge you must effectively forget everything you know, even stop grasping and thinking of yourself as being something seperate or the same as everything else. It's incredibly difficult to keep this frame of mind for long periods of time but the truth becomes known and cannot be unlearned, therefore, true happiness is always within reach.
