Enlightened Aloneness?

This is in Response to the Questions and Reflections for June 14, 2008:
It appears that the more so-called "Enlightened" that a person becomes the more "alone" they may feel because less and less people seem to be pushing for higher and higher levels-stages-dimensions of Conscious Awareness. Now, obviously, this does not really mean that the person is actually alone but rather that there are simply less people to speak or communicate effectively with at the so-called higher levels. And, even greater patience is necessary for the people who are not yet there. So, what may appear as aloneness to a less-enlightened person is actually more time that is available for the Enlightened-One to ponder the more profound aspects of life. Then, ANY time spent with a seemingly less-enlightened person is actually more time to PRACTICE your Enlightened State of Beingness in assisting such a person to attain their next higher level, a level which is unique to them specifically.
Enlightened Aloneness is precious, savor that time to yourself and breathe deeply and allow those moments of inner harmony and peacefulness to enable you to attain even higher levels of Conscious Awareness.

Well said! This certainly sums up how I've been feeling of late: thanks for putting it into perspective .. and helping me see I'm not alone in feeling liek this. Others describe it as a 'waiting' phase, though I'm not sure what we're waiting for! More, I suspect and you say, an opportunity to practice patience and acceptance of what we have. Such times might even be 'The Wilderness Years' (or at least months) … as we're tempted to do things just for the sake of doing things, for example. I'll certainly be glad when I can enjoy these times more . . and THAT means even more swallowing hard and surrendering to the bigger picture. Such is life as this phase in our evolution I guess!
Yes, I have also heard people call this waiting phase “Purgatory” because it is in-between the so-called mortal world and the totally enlightened world. Some of these in-between people actually seem to feel depressed but it is not that they are sad but rather they simply do not know what to do with themselves or how to be enlightened in a seemingly unenlightened world or how to apply their enlightened awareness. Less-enlightened (LE) people tend to get caught up in their negative emotions and enlightened people know better than to condescend to or rationalize that relatively insane frame of mind. Plus, such an LE type of person does not want to hear that no one but they themselves are responsible for their negative state-of-mind so they are stuck in the “lower worlds.” So, until an enlightened person chooses a direction to permit their “genius magic” or “divine energy” to flow then they are said to be “between worlds.” Usually the only real application of an enlightened state, other than tending to one's own garden of course, is to gently assist other people in attaining their next higher level. Don't worry so much about helping someone like Obama who has a LOT of people listening to him. Help someone close to you because the more practice that you get helping other people the more effective you will be when you actually get to interact with someone like Obama.
Putting your observations in the form of a question also seems to help. People who do not know any better do not seem to appreciate having what they think is true being obviuosly contradicted. Even if they answer with a definitive “NO!” to your question, the question has still entered into that person's subconscious mind and will unravel like a seed and actually bare fruit some time in the future. I learned this lesson from Merlin who “lived backwards in time.” This is how past, present, and future can exist simulataneously. The person you are speaking with is living in the past, you interact with them in the present, and you offer the person a future possibility. :o)
If you offer a person enough “future possibilities” then you can in fact help to mold the future. Please keep in mind that the majority of unenlightened people expands at an exponentially greater rate than the number of enlightened people get more enlightened. However, the enlightened people are getting more enlightened and have a greater potential to apply LEVERAGE at an exponential rate as well. Meaning, that even though things may “appear” to be getting worse really fast, our ability or power as enlightened beings is growing exponentially faster. We are getting more powerful faster than the rest of the world is getting worse. So, we can essentially do more and more with less and less. This is a combination of Bucky Fuller and the movie The Matrix wisdom. Even a single person with enlightened knowledge and awareness can move the entirety of the human race if they figure out how to effectively convey wisdom to the lowest-common-denominator human being.
However, the challenge is that no one can “teach” such a person this wisdom, it needs to be “realized” or figured out by the person themselves from their own unique genius (like Kung Fu Panda). This is the true meaning of the Messiah, Buddha, and Guru concepts. Lower level mentalities think and talk about this concept as if it were an actual historical person but the enlightened person REALIZES that they themselves are this concept, or at least the better aspect of themselves is this concept. This is how certain people can actually be God on Earth, IF, they can realize the non-ego-based aspect of their own personality that is without fear, anger, hate, sadness, etc.
Does this make any sense? If not then perhaps read it again and tell me how I might be able to explain this a little better. Thanks!
Yes, makes good sense. Many thanks.
