Personally, I never agreed with the Boddhisattva vow, even tho I may be
one...:)
Boddhisattvas vowing to keep incarnating till all sentient beings are
"saved" is an attachment to not seeing universal Dharma. All is Goddess, so
there is nothing to 'save."
It is like the students who love school so much they become teachers so
they can still attend the frat parties. It is illusion. They project "needs
to be saved" onto reality so they can enjoy the savior game. They do it
because they enjoy doing it. Party animals of duality.

Yes.

A wise man, Stuart Wilde, said "I'll know I am fully enlightened, when
I no longer feel a need, to teach."
I have been in that place myself, a few times... happy to bliss out
under the boddhi tree, needing nothing. Always, people come and ask me to
play teacher. I already know that they are Divine and need nothing... but
really, I have not figured out anything better to do with my life, and the
body gets restless just sitting, so sometimes I play along. Goddess in them
says "can Mystress come out to play teacher games?" and Goddess in me says,
"OK, if she wants to..." The choice is up to me.
Sometimes, I want to... even though I know the reality of human
communication, resembles that "Far side" cartoon, "What we say to dogs, and
what they hear." What is said and what is heard... two different
universes. We interpret the words in ordinary conversation with each other
differently, just as everyone interprets the Bible to suit themselves. It's
human.
I do get bored with it, especially bored of repeating myself, often
enough to first create Fire Serpent Tantra,
www.fire-serpent.com
then the Kundalini section of Domin8rex.com,
http://www.domin8rex.com/serpent/spirit/kindex.htm
so that those who want to hear what I teach, can go there and read it
instead of asking for my time.
>PS - Any good books on NLP you could recommend?
Tony Robbins "Your infinite power." Many copies at any secondhand
bookstore. Teach you techniques to reprogram your brain.
NLP itself, was based on the work of the best hypnotist in the world,
Milton Erickson. Self hypnosis is a good way to establish communication
with the unconscious mind.
