Many spiritual teachers claim that they have become enlightened, such as Eckhart Tolle, Byron Katie, Adyashanti, Gangaji, Mooji, Wayne Liquorman, Catherine Ingram and Tony Parsons.
As a disclaimer, all such spiritual teachers may not claim to be enlightened, but at least many do. And they teach about nonduality, which is supposed to be oneness.
These self-proclaimed spiritual teachers parrot each other and previous 'masters' with claims such as: "You are not your body" and "You are pure awareness".
A common description is the ability to watch one's thoughts as clouds passing by without being affected by them. That's not nonduality! That's not oneness. That's a severe split of the mind where one part has become 'pure awareness' and the other parts 'thoughts passing by like clouds over a clear sky'.
What these spiritual teachers call enlightenment is a pathological psychological split of the mind similar to a multiple personality disorder.
