Logic will not answer the question.
It will be obvious when it happens and not until.
I think it is already obvious and that logic already answered the question.
But to each his own I suppose. *Shrugs*
Has logic answered the question? Can you explain it for me please? Logically.

Yes, that there is a 99.9% chance that all of this is new-age-mumbo-jumbo (or ancient mysticism, whatever you wanna call it).
And it's primarily illusions and delusions, rather than sane rational thinking.
There is most likely no such thing as mental stages as set out in the OP, nor are there such thing as the majority of other ambiguous vague things mystics claim.
It's very heavily polluted with the imaginary, and very low on the actual solid reality.edit on 12-4-2013 by muzzleflash because: (no reason given)

But you don't sound 100% sure.
Stay sceptical.

If anybody here feels ready to endeavor rising above the egoic mind (the beast), activate the chakras and the kundalini within, rise up to unity (christ) consciousness of oneness with all that is, you are welcome to contact me and I WILL help you to the best of my knowledge. I say this to the seekers, not those merely curious. Light and love to everybody, regardless.

I guess it is unfair because I am at a great advantage here.
I actually know a vast amount about the history of these religious doctrines, where they came from, and why they were implemented.
And they have been used for evil, many times.
They were originally created as a means to brainwash and control the population, and yes I am referring to ancient history.
All that "new age" stuff, is actually ancient paganism.
And it's closely connected with what we can call "witchcraft", if not fully connected.
Reincarnation, Chakras, Meditation, etc. These all predate Hinduism/Buddhism and actually originate back in Mesopotamia. They are connected with the Astrotheological system of Bull worship.
And for that matter, so is the Bible itself, a codex of magic incantations based on astrotheology and bovine worship.
That sounds cool and all but, really no one actually needs that.
They just need to enjoy life, think positive, and help/love others. This will bring them fulfillment.

Though an alluring idea, the "10 percent myth" is so wrong it is almost laughable, says neurologist Barry Gordon at Johns Hopkins School of Medicine in Baltimore. Although there's no definitive culprit to pin the blame on for starting this legend
It turns out though, that we use virtually every part of the brain, and that [most of] the brain is active almost all the time
Although it's true that at any given moment all of the brain's regions are not concurrently firing, brain researchers using imaging technology have shown that, like the body's muscles, most are continually active over a 24-hour period. "Evidence would show over a day you use 100 percent of the brain

This is Greek mythology.
There are 5 stages of consciousness in Greek.
1=Earth (the brain/body),
2=Water (2nd stage of consciousness in meditation )
3=Air (3RD stage of consciousness in meditation where we separate from thought)
4=Fire (4th stage of consciousness where we become charged with the higher light)
5=(5th stage which is the new mind).
This is simply untrue. Those are the classic greek elements, not "stages of consciousness".

Also, if we are willing to reject basic Christian dogma, why are we replacing it with equally as absurd mysticism dogma?
Call me the ultimate skeptic I guess...
