I enjoy spending time with other awakened people and feeling the shared vibration of that, whereas just fun for its own sake might no longer be quite so enticing as it used to be.
The translucent life is very much about overflowing with a gift to the world, rather than being here to consume or to get something for yourself.
I think the main way that somebody would know they're translucent is that their life has become more about the embodiment of Spirit than about acquisition, and that may be something that creeps up on you.
That's the translucent life. You are continuously discovering how you can ooze more Spirit into your personal life and there's no end to that process. It goes on and on and deepens and deepens and deepens.
However much you may have expressed love through your life, you can always express love more.
However much your life may have become an expression of creativity, of generosity of spirit, there's always the further possibility of more or just expressing it in different ways.
I don't think there is any end to translucence. It's an endless journey, rather like playing the violin.
However beautifully you play the violin, you can always play the violin even more beautifully again.
My own awakening came in 1991 and my teacher then, in India, asked me to return to the West and to share this kind of inquiry.
Awakening is usually precipitated by the honest, sincere, inquiry into who you really are.
Most of the myths that we carry about spirituality are because we have been dominated by this hyper-masculine trance.
The translucent revolution is not only about more and more people having awakening, it's also about the way that awakening is embodied â€" and that's much more revolutionary, actually.
Masculine people, by their nature, tend to want to make everything into a journey with a goal.
Feminine spirituality is much more about the emanation of love in this moment, feeling into this moment, feeling the texture of this moment through the skin, through the body, and then letting your life become an emanation of love.
I think the myths are keeping us limited to, and tied to, what I would call the hyper-masculine tradition. All the major religions in the world have been founded by men and propagated by men.
There were statistically more women than men on the planet. Why should every major religion have been founded by men and propagated by men?
The most important thing about translucent people is that their life has been deeply transformed by an awakening.
Most of us spend our lives convinced that there's something missing: "If only I had a bigger barbecue, more money, a bigger car, a different wife, a different.... If only I could upgrade somehow, then I would be okay."
The dominant trance of the planet is that we live in a perpetual sense of lack, a perpetual sense of, "If only I could make this small tweak, then I would feel okay." And, of course, none of the tweaks ever work in the long term.
It seems to me that all of us, in our own way, have our own personal lagos. We all have within us a voice that is whispering doubt, that is whispering suspicion, that's telling us there's something wrong, there's something missing, there's something that should be different. And we easily become hypnotized by that voice of doubt.
A translucent person appears to glow as if from the inside. It's as though they've been lit up from inside and they appear to emit light.
The Iago trance is a state that we've really come to accept as normal, even if we may not feel it to be natural.
