Dear Denise - Thanks for asking, I don't know why you are asking MZ
since he's not claiming to be in an enlightened state whatever that
means. As for me, I don't care as much for reality but rather my
relation to it, the reality at times seems very real and at times
totally unreal.
There are tons of discussions here on reality and you can entertain
yourselves for eternity.
However my relation to it is what is more important, I feel like there's
no separation with the reality, I feel no alienation with the reality
and everyone and everything else in it. So say let's we meet - I either
relate to you in a total loving way or in a playful detached way.
Say I meet you in a loving way, you could meet me half way and think I'm
a very loving, nice, funny, quirky guy or you could feel threatened by
me since I feel no boundaries, I take liberties, I might make an
offending remark, an offending joke or its possible you feel very
threatened because I can be very intense, it might look like I can see
through you and then you can come to a conclusion that may be I have
some psychological issues, may be I'm bipolar, paranoid schizophrenic,
may be I need to be on meds or I'm indulging in mind control or occult
energy.
Or I'm now in a playful mood, I mock myself, make sarcastic jokes, make
fun and I look wacky, shifty, immature, irresponsible - why should I act
like this when there's so much pain, suffering in the world, the world
calls for a mature, responsible individual.
Then at times I'm totally silent and I also have ability to just listen
and offer serious advice but this is very rare since only a few have
reached there.
So it's not reality that I'm concerned about it's my relation to it and
I feel like I own the goddamn universe, I own everything and everyone in
it, that everything and everyone is me, there's no rational reason for
it, so you could be forgiven like many others to quickly distant
yourself from me and label me as mad and crazy.
