Awakening is not about the stories we tell ourselves about our spiritual experiences. It's about what our experiences tell us about those stories.

And what they tell us about those stories is that they're utter bullshit.

I was just trying to say that coming up with fancy "spiritual" sounding descriptions of awakening experiences is a waste of time. Usually leads to useless arguments about the metaphysics of consciousness, which is irrelevant.

is this because many have separate agendas 1. to experience awakening 2. verification of their metaphysics/religious paradigm/etc and that these can be at cross purposes?

You're definitely right about that. I think those are two separate projects, though.
