Absolutely, Jnana is just side affect, not the goal, it should not be given
to much importance, because making things important separates them from us.

:)

As for the maitraya would you believe him if he did walk on water ;)
More importantly what would he have to gain from such a feat?

Agreed. No disrespect to you, Jeff- but why the focus on ecstasy? Wasn't
the question about enlightenment? Do you consider them to be the same?

Isn't enlightenment to fully realize oneself as a spiritual being, in a
fully conscious way(as opposed to intellectually); to be fully conscious
of one's non-duality, to recognize oneself as not being separate from
God, part of the universal consciousness of the One Thingamajig?

I'm able to achieve a kind of ecstasy by spinning my chakras up, but I'm
still working on enlightenment.(I know, stop working) I guess I consider
ecstasy a component of enlightenment- Sat Chit Ananda.

Coincidentally, here in Seattle, a guy named Jeff has announced himself
as the Messiah AND the Maitraya. Not a joke. Heh. Full page ads in the
weekly. I went and met him. Cool guy. He runs a local organic bakery,
and writes stuff like this:

http://www.parallel-youniversity.com/dboard2/messages/140.html

(this was actually published before he announced his Messiahtrayahood)
this may seem wack, at first glance... Almost too much to believe,
perhaps. I wish I could disprove it, but I think he's come pretty close
to nailing the actual nature of our predicament. I haven't reached a
conclusion on the Messiah part. I'll let you know if he starts walking
on water... I'm thinking of volunteering to help construct the godess
temple he's building in the former Red Hook Brewery in the Freemont
district.
