Non duality 16: Five lies non-dual teachers promote

Describes the five most common lies promoted by some non-dual teachers as a way to attain awakening. If you do not know about these lies, even a genuine awakening experience can become a dead end that traps you instead of liberating you.

Good News! My brain/body set itself Totally Free of fear, anxiety, sorrow, despair, loneliness, shame, guilt, confusion, contradictions, addictions, irritations, triggers, vanity, envy, greed, jealousy, attachment, possessiveness, ill-will, hatred, cruelty, bias, prejudice, and all other mental/emotional disturbances.

Yes to the self stuff. We don't undergo metamorphosis upon unbinding. Only Earth element drops away.

Hi Kim,
I remember you saying "you could say that the conscious you is unreal"! (In your video, somewhere in the middle, at the end of point 2)

I struggle with how you said that, it is kind of convoluted.

To me, the conscious you was created by my spiritual parents, being ascended masters. As such, the conscious you, the real conscious you could not be unreal.
For how could god depend upon something unreal to build his experience and growth? I can simply not imagine that.

Of course, if you mean that at the present state, the conscious you identifies with the dualistic mind and therefore the totality of all that we presently are is partially unreal, because we still contain the mortal self which is unreal, I can kind of agree, but the formulation would not be ideal.

Hey Kim.
So...
in the first 30 seconds of this post you're saying that without knowledge of these 5 lies you "cannot reach a state of non-dual awareness".
According to my understanding a non-dual state of awareness is unavoidable...
there's nothing to reach.
Isn't that the point of recognising non-duality?
