Is it really too much to ask to just follow the rules of the thread and stop the off topic discussion?
Laughter, would you please clean up the posts that don't belong here?

So enlightenment would be worthwhile if it made you look different? Is that really what you took away from what I said? I was talking lovingly to my 'challenged daughter'. Duh. It's the part of what you said that sounded particularly odd. "it's not anything worth worrying about because a so-called enlightened person doesn't look any different from one who is not." Is that really the reason you want your daughter to have for why you're not helping her get enlightened?

Is that really the reason you want your daughter to have for why you're not helping her get enlightened? I'm pretty sure you've been one of the many people here, who've said that you can't help someone get enlightened, is this not true? Of course, you're going to pick apart anything I say - anything at all, instead of finding the good stuff instead of the 'bad'.

You didn't answer her question. I did , but you will not look without your agenda..... Right! He just thought he found a sneaky way to get the answers he wants to pry out of us. It sounds innocent enough -- but yeah, there's that agenda of his.

It sounds innocent enough -- but yeah, there's that agenda of his. Of course that was my agenda, I even said so in this thread. I'm just astonished that it seems impossible to get any clear language out of enlightened folks. It's just not possible. It's like... I seriously have no idea what's wrong with them. Anyhow, I give up on this thread. I just profoundly and honestly don't understand how you guys can be like that. Just doesn't make sense to me, this huge disconnect between what you claim and what you actually say and do. Like, when I know something then I'll explain it so that everyone understands. And when I don't know then I'll just admit it. It#s that simple. But you guys are different, I don't understand why you are like that.

Hi, I'm your 15 y/o daughter. I'm autistic and my IQ is below 85. One of my many problems is that I can't understand words except in a literal way. The other is that I'm a little slow sometimes, others say that I'm just a little unlucky when I try to think. And my attention span is really short, after three sentences I've already forgotten what the first sentence was. Daddy, mommy, I love you very much, and I know that you love me more than anything. So my question is - and please don't forget how much you love me and please don't forget my aforementioned problems - how to get enlightened? (note from BB: despite what you may think, I can assure you that this is a dead serious and well thought through thread and no off topic or funny comments will be tolerated) I would answer her question this way- Okay, for the next 30 minutes or so, I would like you to sit quietly and listen to the sounds you are hearing all around you. You can even write them down on a piece of paper. I'll return in a 1/2 an hour and we'll talk about what you were hearing for a bit...

Obviously, this is a topic that is mystical in nature....the kind of thing that defies rational explanations. I don't claim to be enlightened - I could be, but I don't really know....but it is what I'd say to her, or something like that. What if some of those gurus that go around having all those youtube videos and books aren't really enlightened, but...in the end, it's how we individually define it. It's nebulous like that.

You should be confused. It doesn't make any sense. Now if you could go into that, sit still in that confusion, you would probably start getting somewhere.

I don't see how you could be enlightened and not know it. Forgive me if I'm wrong, but aren't you one of the ones seeking it? As I said to BB, it's a mystical, mysterious type of thing, and we can't argue - really - with anyone who says they are or they aren't because it's all up to the individual to define it.
