True enlightenment is the realisation that Capitalism is the wage slavery of immense humanity in a politically manipulated MARKET SYSTEM OF ARTIFICIAL SCARCITY ,a tyrannical,destructive system to perpetuate poverty and exploitation in the interest of the ruling class. Capitalism from its genocide of the native Americans,mercantile plundering , enslavement of African natives to its Millitaristic/ colonial rise of European Powers to World wars is the Financial serfdom of immene humanity.

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.

"i could be wrong about it, but i dont think i am." this man is definantly enlightened. but then again, i could be wrong about it, but i dont think i am.

First off, for someone who claims to have received enlightenment in the Advaita style, his own statements about it are ridiculous! He says that enlightenment is confined to within the individual and that he is there to expand it to transform the world. For him to say that shows he has no idea what he is talking about. How can he be so off base and has so many followers?

this guy bothers me. i want to like him. i like his writing. he has the right idea. but, in person, he flounders bad. as someone below said, he says SO much about so little. ken wilber or eckhart tolle spread the same message, but without letting their ego get in the way.

@rogkeista ah yes, I know it well. Someone posted on another video of Cohen's "the truth hurts especially when one is not ready or open to the recognition of truth` which to me is the ultimate get-out clause when someone calls you out on something being BS. It's the sort of statement that brokers no arguments, because you can dismiss all objections with the same "one size fits all" come back. I've never argued with a cult member, and if that's the sort of "argument" they use, I never want to.
