Default The price for high consciousness?

If a man reached higher level of consciousness, wouldn't he walk on the street feeling that most people passing by are half-dead or pretty dumb?
especially when he love people, he will feel more pain than joy i think.
and the more conscious he became, the more things he will find to struggle.
I guess so, you think?

No.

Thats the conclusion a person comes to, looking from the outside in. I am not at a super-high level of consciousness but I am pretty high and I can tell you. You don't find more things to struggle with. Everything gets easier. Especially when you start using the Law of Attraction

loving others means accepting them as they are wherever they are on their path right now, so he wouldnt look down on them or think less of them he would simply say, ok this is where this person is at right now, how wonderful!

it wouldnt cause any grief or struggle at all. and i agree about things becoming easier with the law of attraction. especially since they would focus on what they want, and not what they dont want. there would be very little that could go 'wrong' because even wrongs or mistakes would be embraced as wonderful opportunities for expansion, or further development.

If you truly reach a higher consciousness, there is an impulse -- an imperative -- that arises to work to raise consciousness in the world. A purely introspective enlightenment experience is a pleasant state, but it does not constitute a higher level of consciousness in and of itself; and you have to question the value of purely experiential enlightenment in a modern context where low consciousness is very quickly eroding our world -- both the man-made and the natural. At that point, it is beyond pain or joy -- beyond egoic judgment -- it is a pure motive to elevate humanity.

The more 'conscious' I am (i.e the more understanding I am; I don't buy the Hawkins model), the less judgmental I am of other people. It only makes sense that way. It is so much easier to see the bad in other people when there is so much bad in yourself, because then, you are more focused on it.
