Hi friend:

Spiritual aspirants are notionally divided into three classes

according to their capacity to receive and aprehend the teaching of

non-duality:

1-Those few ones in such the apperception takes place as soon as the

Guru explains the true notional individual in the notional universe.

this few ones are like a spark for gunpowder.

2-In the second category are those that need to put some efforts to

understand the teaching in it full significance before the Self

awareness can take place.This ones [are a very large numbers of

aspirants] who are like "dry-charcoal" and would therefore need

considerable preliminary preparation to purify the mind in order to

be able to receive any spiritual instruction.

3-Those in the third category need many years of spiritual

instruction of one kind or another before they are ready for the

final step.These belong to the wet coal that need a considerable

amount of work before wet coal could start burning.

The "pretending" is a happening helped by social conditioning and

genetical factors.There is not a "you" that can by a supposed "free

will" stop this pretention.The "Stop pretending"concept is only an

awaken call that only can happen and apperceive when the whole

process of evolution culminating in the appropiate situation of

enlightenment, is viewed in a impersonal manner.And the real joke is

that such inpersonal viewing[perspective]is itself part of the

inpersonal happening and it does not happen until the "proper" time.

An remember that this "enlightenment is merely a phenomenon a

happening that occurs as part of the universal "lila".There is not a

question of credit or guilt ,success or failure,as an individual.The

individual entity is an illusion .The fundamental truth is that

nothing has really happened.

REGARDS ATAGRASIN.
