Today I can see my thinking as one chunk with pain stuck to it. I don't know if I can be free from it.

Enlightenment will eventually happen to everyone, for it is the natural state. The process of dismantling the illusion of separation can be encouraged by starting to directly distrust all form of thinking in relation to time. After enlightenment there is peace and clarity.
