When the student is ready the teacher will appear. I have been for years what I would call "Intellectually Enlightened." I have understood the theory for about 20 years about the true nature of reality as taught by Buddha. That simple concept, that the self is an illusion to overcome made sense to me intellectually based on the sacred texts I have read over the years. When I was exposed to RA: The Law of One if felt my knowledge of the true nature of reality and it how it works was elevated another level for me.
I made the shift from understanding the concept of being enlightened to actually experience true glimpses of it when I found the teachings of Aaron Abke. I post the url to his channel so that others who are also ready for Unity Consciousness can make the leap from concept to actual enlightenment.
