Interesting point of view. I can see where you are coming from. I think, if I was to share your opinions of the way the world works, I would be a very sad person.
Enlightenment is at present, subjective. I mean it is logical that in fact it isnt, but this thread would suggest that -considering the differing opinions- everyone has a different idea of what they are searching for.
Considering the hurt and sadness prevalent across the globe it would not be amiss to assert that the earth is a bad place. Yet I have seen acts of kindness that would say otherwise. We are imprisoned in this filter we call a brain and until we are not, we must surely strive to find out
why we are here? what is my place?
Are we not enlightened when we can answer these questions?

Your words are accurate - perhaps even more than you meant to, for hope is a fool's drug.

Enlightnement is a personal thing. Self realization as it is also called comes about by your own sincere desire to be one with the Creator. Call him God, Prime Creator, Brahman. He doesn't care what you call him. There is only one supreme Lord of Love. Love him with all of your heart, with your entire being. Know that he loves you even greater. Remember who you are...part of him. Tat tvat asi... that thou art. Meditate. "know that I am God". With your steadfast desire and sincere practice of meditation, He will bestow his divine grace upon you...and you will remember who you are. How great you are. How wonderful. How special. Meditate. Once in the morning and once in the evening. Quality not quantity. If all you need is five minutes..five minutes then. When it feels right to stop, stop. Listen to your intuition. Let it be your guide. This is all an illusion. Karma is an illusion. Keep focused upon being one with him. Namaste!

Well put. Any time we dabble in beliefs we are in the Lila - illusion or more accurately the false reality. Why do we do this? To forget that we are an -aspect of God - Divine. Anything communicated that is belief, science, religion, money, politics, dilutes us and keeps us from the Maya - Ultimate Reality. Omnipotence is an incredible thing in the Lila. Jesus of Nazareth said: "Seek and do not stop seeking. When you find you will be disturbed and will rule the world (you)."
Namaste,

Hey DragonriderGal! I appreciate the fact that you think! Just wish
I had a picture to go with the thought.
I believe the earth will cleanse itself and that people will be cleansed,
at least those that are able to do so. The sun will play a large role in who
will get the latest software/hardware updates.
Do you think this swine flu vaccine plays a part in who may or
who may not receive "Full Enlightenment"?

False extrapolation? Couldn't I say the same of you and your NWO concept?! Every time I said something that went against your belief, it was labeled NWO. Go back over the thread. It's here for everyone to see.

I do think you are right. I will be ok. But I don't get any sense that there will be any other species there to 'help' us. None of them are going to make enlightenment; it is pretty much up to us to do what we need to do for ourselves as we grow. Your description of that mansion though, sounds almost past life; do you remember any btw??
And it is very interesting that you had the guidance of the tree women. Those are the tree sylphs and they usually work for the elves, which says to me that they are keeping an eye on you. I would guess that you are someone of import to the elder races, if not the elves themselves.

Actually, I made a typo there, should have been "three" women, not tree women. I don't think they lived in a tree. The house, or mansion i spoke of is from a past life, a long way back there. It is a family home, and my real family is legion, for we are many. The Aunts do not really guide me, more like appear to keep me from trouble, and the oldest one, a red head of about 60 has done on numerous occasions. As I also said, there are others, but those I will not go into, for it lends nothing to the post. We all have these family spirits, they are with us always. I have to agree on the Elfin Race bringing the Dolphins here. Modern civilization has forgotten the Elfin Race of people, but they were here long before we were. I have never actually seen a Dolphin, but I feel an affinity for them.
