There is no “progress”, there is no “spiritual” and there is no “path.” All three of these concepts are born out of the mind, which itself is an illusion and creates these concepts to perpetuate it’s illusory existence.
What you truly are has always been present. It makes no progress, it knows nothing of being spiritual and it isn’t on a path. You have always been pure, ever present and awake. You were never lost and you have never been separate.
Even the appearance of separation was perceived and witnessed within the ultimate reality that you are. You have always been there witnessing the whole thing and watching the show.
