"Even after deep awakening, you remain a vulnerable human being. And as long as you are human..which is until the body dies...you will feel sad, angry, hurt sometimes.....and it will still be nice to be favorably "noticed" and appreciated rather than despised and ignored...
The idea that awakened folks are invulnerable and could not care less about what others think of them, about their finances, health issues, etc.... is one of the most harmful myths and assumptions people in the contemporary, non-dual spiritual scene make......and it is still a very common assumption....in spite of all the evidence to the contrary!
Spiritual teachers would do well to own up to being vulnerable human beings and really "come out of the closet" in that regard..It would be one of the most encouraging messages they could ever share.
People might actually begin to realize that awakened living does not mean becoming Super man or Wonder woman!" - 'Fran' Francis Bennett
