What is enlightenment?

45 posts in this topic

@Javfly33 It's not that i assume but it feels that way or like i am conscious of what i experience like there is something there and it feels aware cause if there is no awareness then how would i and i mean me as awareness know if there is an experience?

I know or had an experience were i felt i was awareness(felt like my consciousness expanded bigger than my body) and my body was inside of awareness, which i thought it was my awareness. I know there is nothing inside the body but is the body not inside my awareness, this thing aware of what i am reading and typing at this very moment?

Okay so it's no ones thoughts that the ego is thinking it's the ego's thoughts, feelings fear. so they are just there floating in awareness?

I feel it's awareness but again i guess i am thinking it's my awareness cause it feels like me knowing or is aware but again i see it's me thinking it's mine as so the circle goes round and round.

Yes if you want the truth more than anything else it will be found ?

Enlightenment is a verb, it is a process.  Enlightenment is awakening.  We are always enlightened and being enlightened.  Blessings..

Some will define enlightenment as a noun, a destination or state of being.  People will exclude other locations and place enlightenment squarely within a defined area.  A lust for absolute knowledge can be found at the heart of this reasoning.  I believe it is worth contemplation, not totally inaccurate but is it limiting?

@electroBeam How and what would happen? I am guessing it might be the ego?

The stuff behind the eyes = the stuff in front of the eyes.
