How often have you heard that to achieve some measure of spiritual enlightenment you have to "let go of your worldly attachments?

I personally also subscribe to this but my questions are:

1. Does it have to be so difficult?

2. What is the source of these attachments in the first place?

3. Is there a blueprint by which anyone could achieve this?

The answers I have come up with are as follows:

1. No it doesn't have to be so difficult. Many spiritual traditions however have promulgated the idea that enlightenment is a long and arduous process that only allows the virtuous few through its gates. Unfortunately this has been promoted more as a way of discouraging the masses from reclaiming their true power and thus as a form of social control. All of this is unnecessary and undesirable in my view.

2. All attachments are based in the sum total of all the beliefs we harbor about ourselves, others, and the nature of our reality. In particular the most relevant beliefs are about who we "think" we are.

How often have you heard the expression "We are only human"? Well probably more times than you can count on both hands, correct? This is often meant tongue in cheek" to point out that we are weak willed and fallible beings.

Is this really the truth however? Well we are so confused as individuals that the whole idea of "what is truth" is an overwhelming question that likely will never be fully resolved for some of you.

All I ask is that you notice how the following statement feels:

"I am a fallible being."

Does it feel good to you? Probably not, correct?

Doesn't it make you feel weak, inadequate, error prone, defective and so on? All good feelings, are they not?

What are these feelings that occur spontaneously within you telling you about that statement?

Is it possible that this is your inner intelligence telling you that there is something wrong with the veracity of that statement?

I'll leave that for you to ponder.

If it doesn't feel so good to you then why on earth would you continue to use it to justify who or what you are any longer?

Well likely because you're afraid to let it go, correct?

So we've arrived at point 3.

3. Let's look at the usefulness to you of hanging on to the belief:

"I am a fallible human being"

It goes something like this:

1. It helps me to be conscious, alert, and ready the next time I'm about to mess up so that,

2. I can catch myself, so that,

3. I can do it right this time, so that,

4. I can feel successful, so that,

5. I can feel good i.e. happy, contented, accomplished, and so that,

6. I can feel good about myself.

So in summary we have:

(A) The belief that I am a fallible human being makes me feel good about myself.

Now I won't challenge your intelligence by asking whether that statement is true for you. I think we both know the answer to that.

I just ask you to notice how you feel inside right now.

If you've followed me so far you might be feeling a sense of relief, lighter, more buoyant, clearer, more peaceful, contentment, joy and so on.

This is the experience that I call "enlightenment" and if you'll notice the idea that you are in any way fallible probably doesn't feel like it has a hold on you the way it did before.

Indeed what has happened is that through this process I have lead you through you have spontaneously let it go.

That was our goal wasn't it?

So you see it has nothing to do with doing a great deal of work rather it takes a certain degree of personal honesty. The release then happens on its own without you having to exert any effort what so ever.

This is an example of what I call the Mind Resonance Process(TM) (MRP).
