Something I posted on another group:
Zoe (ZRedbird) wrote regarding the Holy Instant:
Thanks, Lenny. Now I understand a little
better. I know what you are talking about. I've had bits and pieces of it,
but I call it "shift of awareness."
Lenny wrote: There is a way to make it
more permanent.
Zoe: I studied with a Zen Master for ten
years. That was all I could take. Ha. He often said that becoming
enlightened was easy, but staying enlightened was hard. How right he
was!
Lenny: At least for myself, I know why staying enlightened is difficult and the solution. Zoe asks: I'm always ready to hear your
wisdom. Care to elaborate on your two comments?

elaborate.
Removing the mental blocks that are keeping us
in the viscous human condition. Here are the primary blocks:
1. DENIAL of who we are as an eternal
indestructible being of pure awareness. This is our permanent, happy, natural
self.
2. FEAR of anything including God, ourself,
others, nature, consequence, death and "fear itself." Of course, we can add
plenty to this list.
3. GUILT of sin, wrongdoing, wrong thinking,
imagined Karma, etc.
4. DENIAL of the other 3. This one will keep us
for eons of time stuck in the endless cycle of birth and death in the
semi-unconscious human state or dream state.
