What is awakened to you Shawn? What is impersonal to you? If paranoia is a form of insanity, does that mean awakened or enlightenment may be a form of sanity or another form of insanity?

Obsessively forming opinions about opinions....doesn't sound too healthy to me.

Guest guest Posted February 10, 2005 Report Share Posted February 10, 2005 A form of psychosis in which a person imagines that he is being persecuted or that he is very great or important. P:I s this what you mean Shawn? Do you have those symtons? Don't we all have a mild form of paranoia? If one feels we are one with the One? Is that realization, or megalomania? Is the constant questioning of reality. a form of paranoic distrust? Is not a certain amount of distrust, specially, of our own opinions, healthy?
