hey Mr. Soss, here's a reply from someone on Batgap.  Hope it helps one way or 
the other.  The consensus is CC is not reversible:

CC is not reversible. The change includes a change in
identification, in our relationship with source and in our energy
system. The recognition is felt throughout creation. Keep in mind it
is not a person who wakes up and can thus lose something. It is
Self waking up to Itself. Self doesn't get confused or forget.

This is not a linear mechanical process but human growth and
development. Consider puberty. Can we lose puberty? Does everyone
have the same experience of it? Is it linear?

That said, there are people who have sustained states that fade.
There are people who witness 24/7 permanently who have not actually
switched yet. (have reached Makara but not crown) They may seem
awake and have great experiences but also have non-awake
characteristics. And there are those who are recently awake but for
whom the subjective experience is not yet clear. They're doing some
purification and/or mind is trying to regain control. That does
eventually complete and become clear but it varies how long. This
isn't losing it though it may seem like it subjectively sometimes. 


Share again:  In the paragraph just above, Makara is a term used by PKYC 
lineage and refers to a point in upper brow ajna.  According to their teaching 
once Kundalini Shakti reaches Makara She is stable there and proceeds to crown 
chakra unimpeded.  Prior to reaching Makara Kundalini Shakti can travel up and 
down the chakra system continuously.  But this is very hard on the physiology 
and indicative of a deflected or blocked situation.  The specialty of PKYC is 
remedying such.  They have a 97% success rate!

Not at all.

First of all Maharishi has explained that with practice of the sidhas we 
develop all the higher states simultaneously.  And I've heard of at least one 
person, not a TMer going from CC to UC in three days.  It was a gov who labeled 
it such.

Yes, why not ? When the time is ripe even the smell of a rotten bus could be 
the factor that push you into enlightenment in an instant.

 
  Anyway, I think of CC as having a nervous system without stress and that 
  once this state is reached, the nervous system is so resilient that it does 
  not take on any more stress.  Lines on air.  So yes, I'd say real CC is 
  irreversible.  I think a person can have Unity experiences.  I know someone 
  who is having Brahman experiences these days.  But he's realized it's not 
  stabilized Brahman.

  Anyway, I think if you asked this question on Batgap forum, you'd get some

I can only hope you are joking. I'm afraid my impression is that the majority

Hey Ann, I was driving past the large fields of Stanford's campus (it is huge), 
past the satellite dish, and saw numerous horses standing in a field eating, in 
the rain, temp about 55 F, each covered shoulder to rump with a blanket. I 
guess if they are wool, it works. Horses, despite their massive size and 
strength always seem so fragile to me. Are they less susceptible to cold than 
we humans are?

Let's remember that established CC, or life for that matter, doesn't occur in a 
vacuum. So the experience of 24/7 CC really comes about as a fairly lengthy 
process of tuning our inner selves to that universal silence. Nature or the 
universe or whatever, provides no opportunity for us to reverse that intimacy, 
once it is established. Just the opposite in fact - The universe so loves the 
experience of being awake within us, that it begins to provide more and more 
opportunities, using both positive and negative reinforcement, to engage us 
further, until it has brought us into its embrace fully.

Beautiful, thanks.

From this, and what has been stated from 4 posters here + one from Batgap we 
can safely conclude, once we are rewired there is no way to undo the result 
of countless lifetimes in yearning for fulfilment. Enlightenment is 
irreversable.

Which also brings to conclusion the questioning of the validity of Robin's 
claims of having been enlightened. He could not de-enlighten that which never 
took place in the first place however many posts on FFLt he claims the 
contrary. 
I'm sure his many fans here and elswhere will look forward to his posts as they 
are often poetic and astute, but from now on without the claim of ever having 
been enlightened.

Hey Dr, horses are fairly resilient to cold if you allow them to grow a
normal winter coat which they will do naturally (sometimes people start
blanketing earlier to inhibit the growth of the hair though). This hair
coat will fluff up when the horse is cold and trap air between the skin
and the hair shafts.

Most people who are using their horses as competition horses or who ride
every day will clip their horses. They sometimes clip every inch of the
horse and sometimes just certain areas. But when you do that you have to
blanket them. Depending on the temperature and how much hair you took
off you need to use heavy blankets with hollofil and a waterproof and
breathable outer shell. There are lots and lots of types of blankets
available from stable quilts to cool out rugs to rain shells to show
sheets. We sell winter blankets that retail for up to $475 but these are
really good ones from Ireland. I keep my big horse, Donatello, in
clothes all the time summer or winter. In the summer he wears a fly
sheet, very cool and breathy and in the winter he wears a waterproof
200g blanket with a hood. Because he is a true black I like to keep him
covered to keep him from bleaching in the summer plus the flies are
obnoxious to horses so he wears a fly mask too! A real caped crusader.

about his experience of enlightenment because these people

didn't know Robin during the years he was experiencing
enlightenment and who don't know him now, a quarter of a
century later?

This whole discussion is absurd as it pertains to Robin.
What kind of mental vacuity leads one to take the word of
others about what happened to a person over the word of the
person *to whom it happened*, when what happened can only
be known subjectively, and they weren't around him when it
was happening?

Enlightenment, IMHO, doesn't follow a set of strict *rules*,
such that any deviation means enlightenment did not occur.
There may be certain commonalities that are typically
found, but with something so subjective, there's plenty of
room for variation.

Nabby, don't be ridiculous. You've made plenty of silly
claims here on FFL, but this is by far the silliest. I 
mean, you can believe any damn fool thing you want, but
don't pretend your belief somehow amounts to ironclad 
proof.

And BTW, this has nothing to do with Robin's fans. This
has to do with clear thinking.

 claims here on FFL, but this is by far the silliest. I 
 mean, you can believe any damn fool thing you want, but
 don't pretend your belief somehow amounts to ironclad 
 proof.

It's also a matter of who you trust. Just because someone makes a claim doesn't 
mean the story is objectively correct, even when hidden amongst ten-thousands 
of words in hundreds of posts on FFL.
 
 And BTW, this has nothing to do with Robin's fans. This

Robin was never established in CC, let alone UC. Get over it.

  of the *opinions* of five people?

Nabby1:
5 experienced souls having closely studied the subject points out that his 
reasoning is incorrect.

Judy2:
Non sequitur. Robin doesn't say he was enlightened on the
basis of reasoning but on the basis of experience.

Judy1:  
  And what on *earth* makes you think Robin will stop talking
  about his experience of enlightenment because these people
  claim it's impossible to de-enlighten oneself, people who 
  didn't know Robin during the years he was experiencing
  enlightenment and who don't know him now, a quarter of a
  century later?
 
Nabby1:
Perhaps because he would choose to not continue to make a
fool of himself ?

Judy2:
I suspect he thinks, as I do, that it's you and these people
who are making fools of themselves.

Judy1:
  This whole discussion is absurd as it pertains to Robin.
  What kind of mental vacuity leads one to take the word of
  others about what happened to a person over the word of the
  person *to whom it happened*, when what happened can only
  be known subjectively, and they weren't around him when it
  was happening?
 
Nabby1:
You seem to think enlightenment is all subjective. How
convienient.

Judy2:
You cannot get inside somebody's head and know what their
personal experience is, Nabby. You can't even make a *guess* 
if you didn't know them when they were having the experience
in question (for 10-plus years, in Robin's case) or after
they had ceased to have it (25 years later, in Robin's case).

It's one thing to say you're puzzled, even dubious, because
what Robin has reported doesn't jibe with what you've heard
from others. But it's *ludicrous* to claim what you've heard
is definitive, in the case of something as subjective and 
variable as enlightenment. It makes no sense on its face.

Judy1:
  Enlightenment, IMHO, doesn't follow a set of strict *rules*,
  such that any deviation means enlightenment did not occur.
  There may be certain commonalities that are typically
  found, but with something so subjective, there's plenty of
  room for variation.
  
  Nabby, don't be ridiculous. You've made plenty of silly

I haven't said that makes it objectively correct. How the

five people. What I'm saying is that it's absurd to call
Robin's characterization of his experience *objectively
INcorrect*, no matter how much you trust the people doing so.
(You shouldn't trust them at all if they make such a claim,
IMHO.)

Nabby1:

You're busted, Nabby.

Nothing to do with flowery language. Much of Robin's

that you and others here are so confused as to think you can
pronounce judgment on Robin's experiences, think you can know
what his experiences were better than he does. That's the sort
of nonsense I'd expect from Barry.

Ok, I'm back - No, you don't need 24/7 CC, to have a UC experience - as a 
correlation, I had many, many GC experiences in waking state. To be 
*established* in UC, though, is a whole 'nother issue. 

First off, with MMY's techniques, the SOCs of CC-GC-UC, are not really stable 
states of consciousness, merely states of awareness, on the way to exiting from 
the spiritual game altogether. 

So, being established in UC is a misnomer. If you look at the definitions of 
CC, GC, and even UC, they are all in terms of the Self; ripening, like an 
avocado. Even when the Self recognizes Oneness, in UC, it remains in the domain 
of the Self, the Infinite Personal.

The goal is the practical dissolution, or full integration, of any relative 
state of awareness. That way, they are all available, though we don't identify 
with any of them.

Hope that helps!

 spent a quarter of a century working on it.


I haven't read any of her books, but from listening to friends in FF who have, 
it sounds like Bernadette Roberts took the hammer of Catholic indoctrination to 
smash her experience of no self in order to make it conform to her Catholicism. 
Her original book is apparently a crystal clear description of nondual 
awakening, but her newer book was described as painful to read, as she 
basically Catholicizes away her enlightenment.

I don't think determining what state of consciousness someone (including 
oneself) is functioning from is as easy as figuring out if one has the measles, 
a fever or AIDS. But if I read what many write here it is like this can all be 
categorized like some sort of yoghurt culture. What objective measurement is 
there to do such a thing?. There is no thermometer or blood test that can give 
anyone a reading. 

Putting these different states of consciousness into such tight knit categories 
seems way too simplistic and inflexible. It is the human brain we are speaking 
about here. There may be outside forces, effects, influences that could be said 
to 'encourage' enlightenment but ultimately these things act on the physical 
organ we call the human brain. That organ is incredibly adaptable, immeasurably 
mysterious, chemically balancing on the slightest potential for catastrophic 
fluctuations; who is to say what it can do, where it can take its recipient? 
Who is any expert here or anywhere? Who is to say things can not move in one 
direction and then change, morph, grow, regress? I just don't buy it. I don't 
believe the so-called states of consciousness can be put into little boxes 
where they sit like some encased specimens.  How can they even be categorized 
at all, have names? For every individual who is allegedly in some other state 
they wouldn't all suddenly become clones of one another acting similarly, 
exhibiting the same interests, speech patterns, decisions, priorities so who  
is determining that Dick and Sally are both in UC? Certainly not Dick and Sally 
I hope. 

If Robin had never meditated or heard of MMY or sought out any spiritual path 
and he had had the experience he had in Arosa on that mountain during a hike 
with a friend I wonder what he would have thought happened. How would he 
explain it? How, in the innocence of having no knowledge that different states 
of consciousness might even exist, would he feel about how he was seeing the 
world? Would it be scary, beautiful, terrible? I only thought of this now, 
maybe he will tell us. And how about anyone else here who believes themselves 
enlightened? Can you imagine what it would have been like to have 'slipped' 
into another mental state but not have known anything about the fact/idea that 
these states existed?

I know one thing though, I am in AC, anyone want to join me? It's pretty cool 
here.
