Notes
*Hm I have to ponder Teresa of Avila actually. Did she have OOBE facility? The problem is if she did I think she hid it. She didn’t want to be accused of heresy. I’ll investigate

Quote
In her writings, Teresa of Avila does not explicitly mention experiences of being transported to other planes of reality beyond her encounters with God and divine visions. Her focus was primarily on her spiritual journey, union with God, and the transformation of her soul.

Teresa of Avila's descriptions of her mystical experiences often involve a sense of being transported outside of herself and experiencing profound spiritual states. She wrote about experiencing raptures, ecstasies, and visions, which she understood as moments of deep union with the divine. These experiences were intense and transformative, but she mainly described them in the context of her relationship with God rather than as journeys to other realms or planes of reality. (ChatGPT)

Hm I want to say she did not have out of body experiences

*Everyone on this table except Bob Monroe is immortal

Everyone who reached enlightenment realized their individual self was identical to the universal Self

Christ achieved Deification (enlightenment + lion)

Hm if you have to choose it’s better to go for the Form of wisdom over the out of body experience

It’s less fun but with the Form you have all the knowledge of the experience without having gone through any of it

“Whenever there is a decline in righteousness and an increase in unrighteousness, O Arjuna, then I manifest Myself on earth." (Vishnu, Bhagavad Gita 4.7)

Accurate

So you can see we only have eight arahants in 2500 years of history

It’s not a great record

Hopefully it’s only uphill from here

Hm so Jeff was the most spiritually advanced person on the planet until February

So there are only two* arahants on earth right now. This is sad

*possibly three if Alexandra is playing a game with me🤔in that case three, which isn’t too bad actually

Hm I’m surprised there is no Hindu arahant. Outside of Ramana Maharshi

Hm you would need 5 arahants to actively begin converting the human population

Pondering the logistics of it

Vishnu must have been
Enlightenment, lion, Form of wisdom

That appears to be the archetype of the avatar
Though I’ll abstain from adding him to the list because it’s not in the historical record
