The Enlightened Beings and Masters of Samadhi - Enlightened Masters & Teachers of Samadhi and Higher Consciousness. How does someone become an Enlightened Being, an Avatar or a Master of Samadhi?
Enlightenment is a continuous state of profound bliss. This natural state spontaneously occurs through realizing you are Divine Consciousness; pure, eternal, unlimited, and free from all harm. Simply remain aware of this for 24 hours and you will naturally awaken. Then you can joyfully connect with everyone from a place of love, devotion, and non-attachment to outcomes. The God-Source, Spirit, Divine Consciousness, Spiritual Essence (whatever you call it) is what you really are.
There is a spiritual path for the planet and one for each individual. All suffering comes from over-identification with your Ego. To become an Avatar you get to turn UP the volume on your "Light". When we can deeply relax inside, we can see that this spiritually enlightened aspect of our soul is the natural state of our very being itself. When we can surrender and stop the worried chattering mind, we can truly relax into our Being.
