> I had a short time to reply and wanted to tell you the information you needed.

I understand, thanks for taking the time to reply in the first place. I apologize if I was curt, but I found your posts here hard to understand. Reading your past comments helped elucidate what you mean.

I'm going to sleep now and I'm finding HN frustrating (I couldn't reply to you when I first saw your post) -- how can I contact you? I'm curious how you came to know what you know and if you had a teacher (your past comments hint that you did). I would like to find a good teacher, but I've been dismayed by my contacts with spiritual people and truth seekers. They are nice people, but they all seemed delusional and I had a bad gut reaction to them. You also seem delusional to some extent: you engage in pedantry and over-rationalization (I also do the latter so I recognize it easily). I do find certain delusions to be useful and engage in them consciously for my and others' benefit. Anyway, I want a teacher because my search has been haphazard and I basically stumbled onto my current elevated awareness (in comparison to my previous self) by sheer luck.

Thanks for posting on HN, even if people don't always want to hear you!



You need to ask lots of questions and we need to keep checking you understand in every detail. That can take a long time. The best situation would be for you to meet an enlightened being and observe what they say and do but unfortunately there are none alive. You would notice that they advise you not to say what you have not confirmed and can help you confirm the difference between your thought that you are aware, and things in reality. This is a very difficult process for 95% of people to undergo and accept. So, if you don't mind, could you tell me first of all what you really want to know? Lots of people said they want teaching but after they get something they want they usually leave and don't come back.

As for delusion when you say that to someone please provide something they can confirm.
