No anger and arrogance in your enlightenment? How sad. I thought your platitude-based, insight-less enlightenment was just mediocre, it's now boring as well.
How would you contrast your mediocre, boring enlightenment with Xeno and Adyashanti's - he says there's no rich inner experience in Unity, that it is equivalent to being a philosophical zombie? No wonder the likes of Barry, Vaj and Curtis lick their lips when they see you open your stupid mouth.
