Marko, Or maybe you have. “Demistifying the so called awakening” De-mystifying is a good word in this observation. It’s not that awakening is denied. More that it is fully understood. Fully respected. The profane understanding of this concept is seen as an all embracing answer to everything. A solution to depression, paying your bills and overriding all life’s challenges. A quick fix to happiness. De-mystifying wakening is to realise the truth. Know the truth and it shall set you free. “We all like dreams and need them” The dream of God for the searcher is real to him. De-mystifying dreams is to accept their reality in the same way one accepts the realities of now. To dream an event is to experience it. Of course in the realm of dream but nevertheless an experience to the individual. “to ruin somebody's dream?” De-mystifying could not ruin one’s enjoyment of existing, but prove it’s supreme value. The right Guru is the one who leads you to this knowing. Even if all he tells you is to paint fences for ten years. If this brings your thinking to the point where illusions become de-mystified then he is your greatest master. You now, question the denial of God and Santa clause knowing as Illusionary concepts we need them to begin to understand truth. Not that they exist or non-exist only, that we exist to contemplate them. Like all things which supposedly exist outside the slapping distance of your now. Your question is also a statement. I agree. .
