Great that you got something out of it. I believe you still would have gotten the same thing if he had left out the background story which sounded iffy and took forever to get out.

Thanks for the desire to guide but I passed that stage a while back.

Right, because you would know. Got it.
Glad you are here to point out my obvious lack in reading comprehension.
Dude! NN is beyond brilliant!
I just reread his First thread and boy talk about a journey great game, masterfully played.
First the hook, then the line, then that hook that just sunk right in... silence for a moment, then everyone just went ape@#$% totally destroying the thread. All those people looked, the denial the war they are so unaware of. it was almost as revealing as what he said.
To think some one would stick their neck out for a chance for those who would hear it's just truly a most loving thing to do.
Slander, ridicule or discredit cannot shadow what he did in the eyes of some, friend.
No desire to guide the unwilling, as I said I am not skilled.

He didn't stick his neck out. He posted on an internet forum. How is that even remotely dangerous?

I guess you misunderstood. NN has done nothing but bible thump with a pseudo-scientific twist. Lots of people around here are into stuff like that. You might want to check out this thread out Jesus Christ's Superderterministic, Cosmological, Magnum Opus. Even though I don't share the belief I can at least respect this guy for not making stuff up to make his message seem more legit.

heh, you are funny. Stepping o the wrong toes is dangerous even when your walking your doggy. Stepping on the wrong toes and knowing it is sticking your neck out.
Look I know you have your issues with NN and his great work but subjectively popping up every 15th episode yelling exterminate! exterminate! exterminate! like a Dalek fighting the Doc'ta makes no sense unless you give a little background as to why you have such issues.

Who's toes did he actually step on? I have seen people post things similar to what he posted and they are still around and I have yet to hear any of them claim that someone came after them in any way.

Not sure what you mean by "subjectively" popping up.
I have already posted the issues. But to recap, he embellished, his over-dramatic delivery was lame and his "truth" is based on the bible with new age catchphrases thrown in, maybe new to you but nothing new, unique or special about it.
So the single most vital step on your journey toward enlightenment is this: learn to disidentify from your mind. Every time you create a gap in the stream of mind, the light of your consciousness grows stronger. One day you may catch yourself smiling at the voice in your head, as you would smile at the antics of a child. This means that you no longer take the content of your mind all that seriously, as your sense of self does not depend on it. - Eckhart Tolle

What you seem to not understand is that many had already heard the content of NN's message. Many here, myself included, already believe that the average man is "asleep" and in need of spiritual awakening. Here is a quote from a well known author:

This is from a book published in 1999 called "The Power of Now - A Guide to Spiritual Enlightenment". He also mixes this idea of enlightenment with the bible.
Of course similar ideas are the core of Buddhism and other Eastern religions. The difference is that now you can seek enlightenment and remain a christian
Now when someone makes a thread stating that they have some secret knowledge and it turns out to be something you read ten or twenty years ago, why would it surprise you that that person's mind was not blown away?

But what does surprise me is the context of your post. It makes no sense.
So you know man is asleep and you know your knowledge yet you down play or call old news knowledge that some one wants to share with others in the hope that wake up. Why would you do that?
I've never read that book you quoted and never would. does not mean i would call it old news or downplay it, it's juts not for me and so I have not read it.

Honestly, because of personal experience, I believe that someone who is truly awake realizes that there is no god. At least not in the biblical sense. Mixing ideologies of enlightenment with christianity, to make christians feel safe, is a step away from truth, not towards it.
I have already been at the stage where I tried to force experiences to fit my christian beliefs. I later came to realize that it was a mistake.
Of course this is also subjective and only my opinion, but on this topic, pretty much everything is. Even NN's part.

How would you know it's not for you if you don't at least read a bit. To be honest they are not really for me either. I just used it as an example that touches on the "mind" aspect that you pointed out in your post.

In the end of NN first post he laid it all out in a way that you had to see, because you were stung out until you lookedThe Rat.

I know what you mean. but that is why love is important you see. Everything and nothing exist at the same time. It's a simple choice. you can choose to die or you can choose to live on. You can choose to be a happy corporate consumer or you can choose to see the evil corporation. Both are real and both are nothing.
You see this is what I did not understand about the mind, my mind your mind. We don't need to hurt ourselves we can choose to be love.
if some thing in the universe and beyond both loves us and hates us at the same time and is real and not real at the same time, i don't mean the literal biblical God rather a force or being, why not choose to see the love, the real.
It's like carl jung or Freud the choice is yours ours both are correct and incorrect at the same time but in your mind you choose which one is real and which one is incorrect.
Se we are not animals, we are different because although we want to survive we have the mind and in this mind we can see far beyond any animal purpose.
Let me put it to you this way friend I choose to love, and I know a love in this universe and beyond time and space loves me and this love that I have loves you as well. I try to love all things now and i with ease truly tell you that I love you.
The choice is yours friend. your mind is your Choice but you must look in your mind to find what you seek.

Hi TTR, would you post the details? I missed the initial post and have not been able to find it. Thanks .

Originally posted by daskakik
You still presented it as an "if". That force does exist but why do you associate it with love?
Originally posted by daskakik
When you say that you know, I assume you are talking about something you feel, correct? To me enlightenment isn't about words and feelings but about first hand experiences outside of reality.

We don't have the same interpretation of what the war within man's mind is.

Real enlightenment is real to you and not to another minds. Some people can find real enlightenment in the cartoon movie "How to Train Your Dragon" while others see Luciferian brain washing.
No friend I know. Not even as a child did I doubt. Before Sunday school I knew. Since then I have been trying to understand. But the thing is everyone knows I think, they just get stuck and asleep. I don't presume to be awake but just not as asleep as I was. asleep or awake i think has nothing to with knowing.
Like the Dog Whisperer. Dogs immediately submit to him because in his mind he projects that he is their master and the dog the animal. Dogs feel this frequency from him and play their role as dog. But they dog does not even know what the hell his going on in the hands of it's owner who projects a "your my little scruffly puffly cutie wooty" frequency to the dog which makes the dog just flip out not knowing what he is.
I can see that. So tell me your reality, if there is such a thing.

Sorry that is personal interpretation of reality. Real enlightenment is the observation of reality (which is not limited to this dimension).
Originally posted by daskakik
Actually it does, but thinking that it doesn't explains why you believe as you do.
Originally posted by daskakik
This is also wrong. He uses the dogs established order to assume the role of pack leader. This, by the way, is a power move not something accomplished through love. Love, or what they think expresses love, is what the owners try and it usually backfires.
Originally posted by TucoTheRat
This is what does not make sense to me?
Well i am trying to explain myself.
It's not just that, he does use the way dogs are programmed by nature but dogs feel his frequency as well which is why he is given as pack leader.
but once the dog knows who is pack leader they love the pack leader.

I edited my original post for clarity. I hope.

I thought we were trying to explain what knowledge is.
Originally posted by daskakik
Without the order he would have nothing, even if he had frequency coming out of every pore.
Originally posted by daskakik
Wouldn't they love him if he wasn't pack leader?
Originally posted by TucoTheRat
But if you want to clarify you either have to make me understand your world or speak in mine.
I hope you understand that I'm trying to make myself understood to you and anyone who wishes to read. Whether i'm an idiot or lack true enlightening is of no consequence to me as some things are out of my hands, but I am trying to understand what you are trying to say and why you say it while making myself understood.
And just like the dog whisperer uses that order he must knows how he must be at a mental frequency to know how and it was his love for dogs that got him there to that knowledge and others peoples love and his love to create an environment for the spreading of that knowledge and when people learn of the knowledge they work on achieving that frequency of pack leader.
