Are you secretly chasing “enlightenment” like a future prize you’ll win one day?
In this video, we explore how that very chase can become the biggest obstacle on your spiritual path.
So many seekers fall into a subtle trap: Treating inner peace as a distant destination, Wearing “being spiritual” like an identity or status, Using positivity and spiritual concepts to escape real pain
This is what’s often called spiritual bypassing—using spirituality to avoid unresolved emotions, trauma, or inner conflict. On the surface it looks peaceful and “high vibe,” but deep inside, nothing truly changes.
In this episode, we dive into:
The “Enlightenment Mirage” – why seeing awakening as “out there in the future” keeps you stuck.
Spiritual Bypassing – how ideas like “everything is an illusion” or “I’m above negative emotions” can become a sophisticated escape.
The Spiritual Ego – the identity of the “spiritual person” who is secretly comparing, judging, or feeling superior. The Seeker vs. The Sought – how constant striving actually strengthens the sense of separation and ego.
Real Growth – why true spirituality is not about adding a new identity, but removing illusions and recognizing what is already here.
You’ll also see real-life examples of spiritual illusions, such as:
Using “good vibes only” to deny grief, anger, or hurt
Hiding behind meditation or “high consciousness” instead of having honest conversations
Confusing detachment with emotional numbness. This video is an invitation to: Stay grounded and authentic, Feel your human experience fully, instead of bypassing it, Recognize that what you are seeking is not in the future—it is already present, behind the layers of illusion. If you’ve ever felt stuck on your spiritual journey despite reading, meditating, or “doing the work,” this may be the missing piece.
