The term I use is "Spiritually Significant" as in if I reach such and such level I am more spiritually significant than _____ (fill in the blank).

There always seems to be an edifice of orthodoxy built around everything, I often wonder what would happen if the founders of the various religions could come back and see how things have progressed in their names. What would they think? I know the feeling Peter, for me it’s about being in the moment and releasing our attachments.
