Also See: Genuine Realisation is Rare, Most Claimants are Delusional


In a discussion with Kyle Dixon, I shared my observations of people I've encountered over the years:

"Most people lack true realization and just mimic or claim it. That’s partly why I closed the ATR Facebook group. Otherwise, it would have ended up in a dire state like the Dharma Overground forum or the Stream Entry subreddit.

What happens is that when their delusion of being realized finally collapses, they project that onto others, assuming everyone else claiming realization is also deluded. I’ve witnessed this happen to more than one person. It is quite sad and tragic."
