Ananta clarifies that while awakening often appears as a sudden shift, its essence is the simple, present recognition of our true nature, which is already here and independent of radical experiences or spiritual conditioning.

✦

Awakening is not about the experience itself, but the recognition of what we always were.

You cannot find a location or reference point for yourself; this is true even now.

Many have sudden experiences yet remain bound by spiritual ego; true liberation is dropping the false.
