Oh, I'm sorry, I must have missed the restriction on
this thread that any example of not being content with
Here And Now has to be an exact analog of TMers not
being content with Here And Now.
I mentioned the TM thang because it's usually
the only way to get the people on this forum
to respond to a broader question. :-)
The broader question is spiritual movements
and spiritual teachers who "sell futures"
Are there spiritual movements/teachers who *aren't* selling some
kind of modified future? It seems to me that they all do it, whether
it's a future with perfected siddhis, rainbow body, kundalini
markers, samadhi, enlightenment, Waking Down brand Second Birth
Awakening, an afterlife in heaven instead of hell, or whatever. Even
Eckhard Tolle, with his Power of Now, is selling a future where
people are content with Here and Now.
If I follow your logic, then all paths are causal?
What about acausal pathless paths?
