Guest guest Posted December 22, 2002 Report Share Posted December 22, 2002 It's a hopeless endeavor to try to recognize enlightenment in others, it's almost as hard to recognize when should we stop seeking that dreamed land. Try to imagine the shock of realizing you have never existed, and don't exist even now. How would that feel? You don't exist and yet nothing has changed, although the world you thought you lived in is equally illusory everything is the same. you talk and people answer, you eat and get full. Nothing has changed, except: You seem to be Teflon coated, nothing bothers you for long. No suffering, no fears, no doubts, no questions, no seeking. You know all you need to know and yet know nothing. You keep doing things you always did, and yet there is a feeling of not-doing. The people around you don't come to you and ask: " did you get a hair cut? " like in that Viagra commercial. People doesn't notice any change, yet you get along with everyone, and strangers smile at you for no reason. You know you are not there and there is no one to really care if this is enlightenment or not. Peace, silence, an emptiness has replaced striving, and the peace of silence and emptiness is sufficient onto itself. Pete Mail Plus - Powerful. Affordable. Sign up now. http://mailplus.
