Spiritual Bypassing and Dead Ends

At some stage you will be asked to wake up from awakening. To wake up from spirituality. To wake up from non-duality. And when that happens, what is asked of you is to step fully back into life. To step fully back into life as a human being and to engage in human life. But to engage as a liberated human being. What is asked of you is to live that liberation, to embody it, and not just simply sitting, spaced out. This is a public episode.

Or perhaps I should say they are constructions, reality constructions that are not questioned. Or they are questioned, but only very marginally. And that is the funny thing. If someone, someone like me, starts to question the structure of these agreed upon realities, if someone starts to question radically the reality about these agreed-upon realities. Then one becomes an outcast, an enemy of the agreed-upon reality. And the only thing I actually do is that I'm shining a light.

In those gaps, the mind grows restless. It struggles to find shelter. So, during these silent mo…
