When Seekers become Finders; Dave Gold on retreat with Andrew Cohen

[cduros60]

This is such a beautiful transmission of the simplicity and availability of spiritual liberation that is there for someone who brings this level of intention and humility to the relationship with an authentic spiritual teacher. His reflection obviously carries the depth, integrity and wisdom of several decades of the pursuit of truth-- as a student, author, seeker, and finder.

@cduros60 - you know, I'm reading the words, but all I see is blah, blah, blah...

After the Absolute is a TREMENDOUS book. The very best sort of spiritual travelog - up there with 'The Entronauts', 'Mutant Message From Down Under', 'Hardcore Zen', 'Enlightenment Blues' and 'The Empty Mirror'. First class.

I was really disappointed, however, to see that Dave Gold had joined Andrew Cohen's highly questionable organisation...

Mind is not a problem making machine. It is a meaning making machine.

Enlightenment is not an achievement, it is a realization of unity beyond the illusion of separateness.

A man (buddha) realized unity 2500 years ago. Enlightenment is easy. I know little kids who are enlightened.

Many people confuse enlightenment (realization) with mastery (proficiency through practice)

Enlightenment that is not applied to living is worthless.

(faith without works is dead)

Dave Gold has lived a life of dedicated seeking for the truth. His wisdom and sincerity come through every time he talks. Well worth watching.
