Blue ray

[lightning]

Hitler fell, as many do, due to losing touch with reality. We can create our own realities to be certain. However, these can be quite detached (due to personal identifications and attachments) and therefore ineffective and non-polarizing, regardless of what we believe is good, right, true, 'loving', makes us feel good, etc. Yet the impotent, illusory nature of these attachments and identifications can be exposed with honesty (blue ray) - 'salvation' is 'built in'.

This answer I like, and I agree with it. It's self-honesty that's the key to blue ray. This degree of self honesty is what is so extraordinarily difficult, because as you say, it requires letting go of attachments. The most intimate and difficult to let go of my attachments are those that have to do with beliefs and opinions, which others have called ego-vanities. It manifests as "I know" or "I'm right". It's only when I began to let go of these that I seemed to make any real progress. There is also a tendency of the self to get caught up in "glamor" or "specialness", and I often wonder if this wanderer notion is of any use to us at all. Am I a wanderer? Even if I were, what difference would it make? I still deal with challenges and catalyst in the same manner anyone else would. But as to Hitler, yes he did become derailed and became detached from reality, it seems. But I think he was also quite naive and did have attachments of idealism which could have thwarted him from his path. But thank you for your insight.
