"Siddhis keep you from becoming enlightened.
Siddhis actually keep you back.
Some people, because of past lives and past experiences,
as they progress on this path, they develop certain siddhis.
They can ... read the future, look into the past,
be able to do astrology, the I Ching,
become a Master of occult powers.
In the Upanishads it clearly states,
occult powers will keep you back for thousands of incarnations.
Do not rest on siddhis.
Leave the siddhis alone.
Go beyond them.
Go beyond everything, until there is no one left to do siddhis.
To do siddhis, there has to be an entity.
There has to be a person to experience these siddhis.
In Advaita Vedanta, the person becomes obliterated.
Therefore for whom are there siddhis?
So when you see a person with great siddhis,
really that person has a mind.
His or her mind is still working, and they will not be free.
Only when you give it all up, and you destroy the ego,
the personality, do you become omnipresence.
If you are everything, why do you need siddhis?
Forget about siddhis."

By day I praised you, and never knew it. By night I stayed with you, and never knew it. I always thought that I was me--but no, I was you and never knew it --- Rumi

You have this choice again.

To realize the world is a dream, to leave everything alone, to be at peace with yourself, and to be at peace with others, and just observe the world without reacting to it.

Or you can get completely and fully involved in this world, totally involved in the world, trying to make things happen, trying to make yourself popular, make yourself good, bad, go through all kinds of experiences, and always fighting for survival.

This is the choice you've got. This is the choice you have. This is the choice that you have to work with. What will you do with it?

“ Knowing yourself is the beginning 

of all wisdom" -  Aristotle

 If you desire the world,
You may try to renounce it
In order to escape sorrow.

Instead, renounce desire!
Then you will be free of sorrow,
And the world will not trouble you.

If you desire liberation,
But you still say "mine,"
If you feel you are the body,
You are not a wise man or seeker.

You are simply a man who suffers.

Let Hari teach you
Or Brahma, born of the lotus,
Or Shiva himself!

Unless you forget everything,
You will never live in your heart.


~ Ashtavakra Gita 16.9-11

There are no states of awakening. There are no levels. You are either awakened or not awakened. The levels are in sadhana. In spiritual practice. There are levels in spiritual practice. But there are no levels in awakening. Once you awaken you understand that you've always been awakened. There never was a time when you were not awakened.

~ Robert Adams

The Divine Mother unceasingly embraces all beings whether or not they are aware of Her presence. She is the indwelling Spirit. Her cosmic name is 'I am'.
