Misunderstanding

Things are not whites and blacks, our world has million colours and you get used to it.
There is not absolute truth.
All world-interpretations are real in its uniqueness at that very moment.
...
The one who believes that he/she does not have any lesson to learn and his/her only task is teaching lives in his/her spiritual ego's cage. Experience is the mother of wisdom, and while he/she stands apart from the world, he/she stands apart from the perception and the recognition as well.
...
Experiences are about the moment. They cut no ice because they lose their importance as the time goes by.
They have happened with you for ages. Now they live only in your memory as engrams because you summon them repeatedly to fulfil your respect-thirsty being. (It is no wonder that you miss a new promising moment.)
...
Whatever experience you had, feel happy about it, accept it and let it go. Do not speak about it to others because it may causes incomprehension. (An experience means something to you, but it can have a very different meaning to others, if any.)
You got this gift to develop yourself. In addition, the key of the recognition always goes hand in hand with the experience (if you are aware enough the symbol reading is simple, or it will be successful if you are ripe for it) - why you should share it with anybody? If your perception and recognition are complete (why it would not be that) then the public continuation just a hidden ego driven act, an attention-getting attempt. Moreover, that strips of the heavenly message's purity...
... 
Remember: there are not two identical interpretations or two equally experienced adventure.
...
The wise man is remaining silent, because only the silence transforms his/her experience into certainty.
The wise man is remaining silent and do not burden other's mind with his/her self-enthusiasm.
The wise man is remaining silent and aspires to the self-purification, aspires to the moral courage in the PRESENT. This is the spiritual growth's True Path. Every other thing is just the past's delusion, that was perfect that time, but today it is just the ego's frozen nostalgia - unnecessary lumber on our mind's attic.

How far have I got?

"How far have I got on my path?"
Actually, this question throws obstacles in the way of your development.
The Path is just a simple thing and your task is the day-to-day progression, the mindfulness and the continuous devotion.
Life always has a surprise in store for us. The one who thinks that he/she has infinite knowledge - misses the way. Every human destiny is different so nobody goes along the path of the enlightenment instead of us. This is our one and only experience - ergo all form of it is perfect and wonderful.
The person who feels that he/she takes lead on the spiritual path will lag behind others. The spiritual ego sets a bar against our development. For that very reason, we are in need of humility when we see the light at the end of the tunnel.
Likewise, if you feel anger toward yourself because you don not think much of yourself then you cannot reach the essence of your existence.
Do not push things to extremes.
The only solution is the felicitous middle between the extremes of excess and deficiency.
