Alex, I have no earthly idea what the term "embodiment" means to Waking Down folks, but when you think about it, "spiritual awakening should involve being disembodied" is EXACTLY what people who seek an end to reincarnation believe in. Whether they've examined the belief deeply or not, it seems to me that anyone who has bought into the "no longer incarnating is 'better' than reincarnating" stuff has bought into the notion that physical existence is somehow on a 'lesser' plane than the transcendental. I don't buy it, and didn't even back when I was a TM TB and Maharishi was giving his, "Nope, no matter what, if you die in CC there is no coming back, period" talks. I heard them "live." If you listen to the tapes, you can probably hear a really loud guffaw when he says this. That was me. It seemed to me then that anyone who sought an end to incarnation was more than a little life-averse, and had just never figured out what a blast life is. Haven't changed my mind in the years since.
