Guest guest Posted January 21, 2010 Report Share Posted January 21, 2010 BTW... I am wondering if enlightenment kind of work like a " disease " ! i.e. diseases might have causes... yet, it is not 100%. For example, smoking might cause cancer yet, not everyone who smokes get it and some who never smoke get it too. Just smoking may not guarantee it. Just not smoking may not prevent it. Best we can say is smoking increases the likelihood of cancer! Maybe, what is smoking to cancer, meditation (dhyana), contemplation (vichara)is to enlightenment! I still don't know how I got 'it', yet, to pretend to not having gotten it will be like betraying 'grace'... no matter how egoist and vain I might appear in 'acknowledging' it!

LOL! what an old bunch of crap that is. i think i almost bought that silly talk the first time i heard it. i was so impressed i almost knocked the sides of my crib out. here's what you do sport.. aknowledge to yourself that there's nothing to get... that there is no such thing as enlightenment. then get off your phony ass hobby horse. look silly.. if there is Enlightenment.. there isn't anybody " there " . do you talk like that with real people? do they laugh at you? take a clue. ..b b.b.
