Terrific Progress

Not only did I become enlightened this year, I am contemplating un-enlightenment as a counter balance . . .
How do you know you are making progress? :)

    I'll concern myself with progress just as soon as it becomes more important than the process.

  • Check (1) Do I feel isolated or separated from humanity. (empathy check)
    Check (2) Am I following a predetermined agenda. (fluidity check)
    Check (3) Is my internal life different from my external life. (transparency check)
    Check (4) Am I doing anything I wouldn't in front of the Buddha. (heart check)
    :clap:
    I think I would include more than humanity. What you call empathy I would probably call resonance. Empathy implies subject and object.
    The fluid, open, spontaneous, free response is a good indicator.
    Check 3, the integration/merger of internal/external is applicable across the range of experience levels . . .
    Check 4 I find the Buddha gets up to all sorts in front of me . . .

    Very good indicators. Many thanks. :clap:
  • I don't intend to reach any destinations i love the journey far too much lol. Saying this my hols were spent in one of the most northernly pouns in scottland. I did a lot of meditating and learned so much about my suffering and how most of it is unintentionally se
    lf inflicted. i also really understood the benefits of egolessness and non attachment.
