Wow! Incredible comment! Yes, I'm familiar with the allegory! You've been living in the cave for so long, and when you finally break out for the first time, but then you have to return back to the cage, it's like "Whaaaaattt"!@james-ajibola!
You're so spot on! Wait- so may I ask, you experienced a Kundalini Awakening / Cosmic Consciousness Awakening too? You speak of the "unconditional love matrix". You mean that you accessed the highest realms of your consciousness and we're with God, in peace and bliss?
If you did, wow, then welcome to my family. That experience was what opened up the doors of perception for me, after which I have never been able to see the world through the naive eyes of a child, like I once could and did.
Omg. Tell me about it. Nigeria is the blind exploitation of the people as Napoleon would say "without the layer of nice Jam on top of the turd sandwich to make it go down easier"
I am in the same boat, hoping I will have the strength to break out to freedom.
But as an outsider, I can tell you this: I believe you will.
Hopefully you believe that about me, and in the end, this is all just developmental "angst" regarding the uncertainty of our destinies! It will all unfold the way it must, as long as we stay true to ourselves, I don't think we should worry too much!
We can do anything we set our minds to. As long as we're making the effort, pushing each day, striving more... It doesn't matter how many times we fall. As long as we get back up with the determination to try again a little bit harder!
Keep it real brother
Bless up

Well, I know what a Kundalini awakening is now,....have I experienced it? No. At least not in its real sense. I doubt I can focus long enough to achieve that at this stage of my life. But I will make sure to chase it now that I know about it.
"Developmental Angst regarding the uncertainty of our destinies". Wow, @imp.unity. Ralph Waldo Emerson said something about that too, something about "no matter how tall the Himalayas and how deep deep ocean trenches get, the earth remains spherical"
Thats science if you ask me. So, we will prevail.
I hear that loud n clear bro
Ralph Emerson! Haha my mom always goes on about him! I've never read anything of his though. Wow, you are seriously educated man. I'm glad to have you among my midst..
Kundalini awakening is not something we chase, it's something we allow to find us when the time is right...
When we are truly ready to stop fighting ourselves, and just be 100% complete within our own being... We will find a powerful alignment... It's a rush of energy that starts from the bottom of our spine, and literally blows our mind wide open and expands our awareness to the entire cosmos.
I wrote about my kundalini awakening I experienced at 18 here
If you are interested, maybe my experience would maybe paint a nice picture of what it felt like to me.
I believe this is the experience that all great mystics have undergone... Jesus in particular.. We also call a kundalini awakening an experience of "Christ Consciousness" or "Unity Consciousness"...
It's when you realize You are God and he is You and you've just been believing you are a little human trapped in a little meat body and then you realize you are the Entire Cosmos focused on one specific point.
As Rumi said: ‘You are not a drop in the ocean. You are the almighty ocean in a drop.’
