-- You may have a lot of crap in the way, clogging up your pipeline to get this remembrance. You can get pieces of remembrance (a.k.a. enlightenment) with lots of meditation and alone time (some get fragmented glimpses with drugs). You can get more often, more clear and easily obtainable remembrances, through clearing out the clogged pipeline. This process can be painful and hard, because you really have to face yourself. When we really face ourselves our ego flares up and challenges us. The strength to divine, and forgive the ego, as we take power oooof the ego, comes from our ability to have strength, true strength! in divine for ourselves and knowing that it was okay to be wrong, mislead, confused, mean, "bad," and again wrong. It's okay!, because we forgive ourselves -- in divine and compassion. This creates clearing in the pipeline and as things clear we will "feel" those things. This is where mindfulness comes in. When we feel a feeling, first ask ourselves why this feeling? Why now? Is there a logical reason for this feeling now? If not, then ask when? A memory will come -- have divine and compassion for yourself and everyone involved in the memory (it's the past, but you're holding on to it and that "infects" you, still, in the now). Then breath out that memory into the divine you have for yourself and let it go --- and that is how you clear your pipeline.
