found this short video about spiritual awakening.
its kind of interesting, summarizing a lot i have been thinking about.
But what is this shift that is occuring? What is happening there? Is something happening?
Are we awakening? or is it just hip to be awakened?
eckhart tolle with oprah?!?! a live streamed awakening online class?!?!
i like Tolle, but some of his stuff is too mainstream for me...
what is it? a pseudo-trend?
a hype?
am i talking about awakening because Jim Carrey does?
and if so, is it wrong?
but also, if we are this awakening and this is a new world, why is it so dark?
why is war dominating, why are we killing each other? destroying the earth, spreading hatred and grief...
what´s going wrong?!
We need alternative, Emanuel! If people don't know any alternatives - what then do you you think they should do? We need to think about alternatives.
ReplyDeletemaggie, don't get me wrong, I do not think it is false to talk about awakening. I am just critically asking if it is right to follow it as a trend?
ReplyDeletethere are not many alternatives:
listen to yourself or not.
what else do you want to do?
awakening is about being yourself, it's about knowing who you are, being who you are and doing what is life supporting for yourself.
but it's not about following a trend. it's not about "pretending to be" because others do so.
but also, if we really are at the dawn of a new era, maybe that's the first sign. maybe awakening and being conscious must become "mainstream" before we, as humanity, can move on.
maybe :)
