Cohen exhibits all the typical features of narcissistic personality disorder, such as a grandiose sense of self-importance and uniqueness; a preoccupation with fantasies of unlimited success; a need for constant attention and admiration; a set of characteristic responses to threats to self-esteem; disturbances in interpersonal relationships; a preoccupation with grooming combined with frequent resorting to prevarication or outright lying; and a lack of empathy.
'as far as we know...' and then Andrew you give your version is it is it true???? yes we are all part of that self...so what? There is no new understanding of enlightenment....it IS. Consciousness does not need anyone for its development..... nice video effects content is lacking
God created everything out of nothing. He did not create everything out of Himself. The matter of creation is not God in material form. Nor is it some eternally uncreated matter that took form. "Creatio ex nihilo", means God made the universe out of nothing. No creature,angel nor man,will ever be able to create out of nothing, it is the sole power of God alone, st.Thomas Aquinas.
so.. lets begin to act on all levels of consciousness to recognize that we must in a sense accomodate the world for the creative energy that is trasforming it... I will say that to my that means doing away with the all the tyranies currently dominating world discourse.. My opinion of what the main culprits are would be capitalism, corporate globalization, and the rift between extremist Islam and Zionism. The 'money'and flow of energy to either side of this insane conflict must stop.
Didn't Sri Aurobindo claim he would bring the Supramental down to earth instead of just ascending up to it from earth? What does God have to evolve into?
What a bad openning.. a vacuum is not empty, there is no such thing as a totally void vacuum in nature. The better word is obviously void.
I like the rest of the video though, couldn't agree more with the man. I think we have reached a point now where we need a quantum leap in evolution.. we need to unify to have any chance of surviving/not killing the planet also.
Its either the New World Order.. or some spectacular awakening/enlighenment as a result of nature itself, gifting it to us.
or, like when we awake from a dream in the morning, and i justin was talking and being with all these other people in the dream, technically, my mind produced the dream and created those people and how they would act, i was the creator, the producer, and the actor of the entire dream, and not just the kid justin. this can be a mirror to this world. we awake and realize i was the creator, i am producing this huge drama, and am playing all the parts, all at the same time. hope this helps
May I ask what part of yourself is no longer existent when you attain enlightenment? To exist means to have objective reality or being. To be enlightened (spiritually speaking) means you raise your awareness as a being. Evolution is inevitable in a world of reality.
if we say (as Paramhansa yogananda said) the ego, is the soul identified with the body. the false-self or the mind made self transcends with its deeper realization that is is spirit, so its as if the spirit is born into and grows in a body and thinks its name is justin, it thinks it has this personality, and that is who i am, this mind made self, THAT self transcends into your higher self, the Self that is. the god self.
Learn to crawl before walk. This whole evolutionary enlightenment is not right. to learn that you are the god is difficult but to learn as a god is even more difficult. evolution is for humans. once u attain enlightenment you dont exist.
Right - "Once u attain enlightenment you don't exist." - but you're still here, right? Here to do what? Well maybe the only thing that has been done during the last 14 billion years? Evolution?
ok. In this teaching, enlightenment is (strived to be) attained for, by and in the name of evolution (not for the fulfillment of the separate self sense).
Enlightenment is usually a future event & evolution is always now.
Also, it seems (at least) to me, that actually, they're inherently connected: Conscious evolution can speed up enlightenment and enlightenment can boost evolution. It can be a VERY powerful (and meaningful) combination when one takes it seriously.
enlightenment is the stopping of striving,its about being,enlightenment is never future its now..enlightenment can not be taken seriously,it is just given...
I can explain my enlightenment through the philosophy of aesthetics and the history of the art form of painting, and the athletic discipline of tennis, here and now.
Intimate knowledge? What's that? If you would like enlightened / intelligence / integrated knowledge, relative to what the geniuses of the philosophy of aesthetics and the athletic discipline of tennis, I'm your enlightened master. My teachings bridge the west and east. Do you know what Enso painting is?
There's no such thing as evolutionary enlightenment. People nowadays like to claimed themselves to be enlightened when they are not. This people are telling falsehood. A very grave sin.
If you knew what enlightenment is, you would know what a sin is. By your replies, I ken see you know neither, and you're in no position to judge a claim. You better hope my claim has no merit, because I will leave you to your non - integrated darkness.
Seeing is Believing, and in order to see you have to open your eyes, and also your mind in this case. This is (EE) something that has just been born. We are not a costumed to think in these terms, therefore, like I said, open mind is the first step.
For some reason... what is that reason? THat's what I want to know - if you have no cause, how can you have an effect? Or is it that nothing inherently causes everything? hmmmmm. Nothing causes everything. If you can accept that axiom, I guess you can accept that we came from nothing. I guess asserting that everything came from nothing is no worse than saying that there was always SOMEthing.
Kinda figured all that out when I was like 10 years old orso, but awesome that there are people on this planet who are aware of such things, and share their toughts and perspectives.
Is there any evidence that "something has always existed"? Science gave us the Big Bang theory, and (well I'm not a scientist but...) it says that the universe is expanding and emerged from one tiny dot, that's pretty nothing for me... Nowhere to go, nothing to see...
Only logic dictates that something has always existed. If you have nothing, you don't have anything, no logic, no reasoning, no existence. The Big Bang theory only describes the universe milliseconds "after" cosmic expansion begins. Those who claim that nothing existed before it are overstepping the theory's limitations.
Yes, I guess that the mentioned "nothing" is beyond the Big Bang theory, but it surely doesn't contradict it in any way. Logic you say? then what is the logic of black holes for example?
...
You don't have to agree, but for me, it's logical that some-thing came from no-thing - Exactly like I have a body, but it's not that I'm Just my body. It seems there's something else, that we're still developing our language around it - You may call it consciousness.
The idea that nothing existed contradicts everything human beings have ever experienced. We can not experience non-existence, so by definition it does not exist. Nothing does not exist, so for existence to come out of nothing is already a contradiction in the language. Black holes? What is your trouble with them?
@visioninverse well, you can follow the experimental research setting. Everyone in the last thousand years who claimed this phenomena has done an experiment: sit down and shut up(meditation). Íf you need it fast, do so for 48 hours in one row, or do it 4 hours a day for 3 months.Thats the expériment. No telelscope, no star-seeing, not microscope, no cell-sseing, no meditation, no ground of all being. Nothing is free in life ; )

Very good analysis. I agree. Two authors come to mind with knowledge of Andrew's psychospiritual pathology, M. Scott Peck, MD and Fr. Malachi Martin.
I'll say no more for now.

I wonder what Andrew thinks of the evolution of governments.
Would he think that we need to go beyond the left-right-liberal-conservative paradigm?
Is libertarianism untried solution?

Below is one zen koan by one enlightened master.
Before I practise Zen, I saw mountains as mountains, and waters as waters.
When I arrived at a more intimate knowledge, I came to the point where I saw that mountains are not mountains, and waters are not waters.
But now that I have got its very substance I am at rest. For it's just that I see mountains once again as mountains, and waters once again as waters.
If you can explain correctly, you are truly enlightened.

yairz83 4 years ago
I don't think so. Politics is a human concept and, in this context is (with respect) quite a primitive idea, it is chaotic by nature.
The whole universe, in a sense is aware of itself and in becoming an actual working part of it we can share that awareness if we choose to.
The magnitude of awareness we would aquire from this 'rite of passage' would be breathtaking.
Eventually, I don't think we'll have much need for 'world leaders' as we know them today.
