An Important Note if You're on Earth
An Important Note if You're on Earth
But what do I mean by that?
Awaken, is when one realise the truth of life, when one see the ego in self and others. When enlightenment is reached so to speak. In Buddhism it's called the end of suffering.
Sleeping on the other hand, is someone who has not reached this level. Someone who stays in the hamster wheel, going around and around again, usually not thinking about his or her spirituality.
Emotions of jealousy, greed, inferiority etc, is still present in every day life.
Someone once compared being intelligent as to live in a world where 19 out of 20 people are like the characters in the movie Dumb & dumber, which obviously could be really frustrating.
This is a good comparison to being awake as well. You get misunderstood, rejected and even disliked, for reasons as; they just don't get you, they fear you for being superior to them, and you threaten their view of themselves.
It doesn't make it much easier to know this in the beginning, but it's a good way to understand that the rejection comes from their own fear, and not from any specific negativity towards you personally. That will help you on the path to enlightenment
Once you truly awaken, and learn to let go of all this negative emotions, you will see a different world.
What I did, to be able to ease the frustration, was to enlighten my knowledge about the human so called super-ego. First of all, however strange it may sound, suffering is needed to open the eyes to the real world. I first noticed the super-ego in others, before I could see it in me. The super-ego is the part in which jealousy, greed and angers mostly become manifested.
Once you realize how the ego manifests, you are less bound to react negative on those who doesn't understand you. Because you'll see that it isn't based on the reality. The calm without negative emotions, and having an understanding is a bliss.
This realization has a profound impact in your well being.
Even though it's told before, and many people do understand the concept about enlightenment, not many will understand it to the level where it's actually implemented in our daily life.
This is truly a shame.
