Note from YouTube: A Turning Point and a Report

Mehdi Lamrani, 8 hours ago (edited)

I remember very clearly that specific moment and the specific words from you that made me awaken almost exactly 2 years ago. I was stunned and dozed off for a few months during which I had put the relative plane totally in background and it took me sometime to come back to “reality” as we know it and deal with it. I also had the urge to tell people (everyone on earth) about it.

Now I slip through life and I undertake great challenges to fill up the experience of life, fully committing to it without being too attached to it, if at all. I often forget “myself” in the process or get back to old pre-awakening habits, but as soon as I recall it, I gain it back almost instantly, and it is a real bliss. I accept “reality” as it is and try to fully appreciate it, without waiting for this or that to happen and finally change my life, without cutting myself from hoping for it to happen and appreciate it when/if it happens.

Also, Books and Videos, Satsang, Retreats, are more of, and not much more than, stimuli to get you there. Eventually. They ease the spiritual craving that calls one to leave (escape?) the relative plane, whereas in the end, [if you finally get things right], you end up accepting that same reality which was not fulfilling prior to awakening (hence the Chop wood carry water allegory).
