Enlightenment is becoming

I have learned that every person 'naturally' wants to become all that they are capable of becoming - the 'desire to realise innate possibilities' is inherent in human nature'.

I am inspired by this and the desire for a richer, fuller and more abundant life!

I was also told that the very best thing you can do for the whole world is to make the
most of yourself - to then be able to help others even better.

To my mind, Enlightenment is realising the innate possibilities that we all have, to become
all that we really are.

This is really making the most of your self for Self - for One and All - I think?

Enlightenment is what it is for you

I have been told that Enlightenment is not a gradual process but 'Enlightenment simply is' all the time. We just need to wake up to it.

I resonate with this.

Yet the Buddha said 'don't take my word for it, or anybody else's, but experience for yourself'.

In my case, I gradually feel more enlightened on a daily basis. This is my experience. What's yours?

I have no idea if I am close to an instant experience, or barely on the path. All I know is that I don't want to stop.

Enlightenment is perfect

Today I took the advice of the Ancient Sages and accepted that we are all enlightened - it's just that we 'think' we are not.

To my great delight, everyone and everything seemed so perfect!

There was beauty in everything I saw. I felt so humble to the great order that seems to underly everything in perfect humility and compassion.

I felt like an observer without being an 'I'. I spontaneously feel moved to say 'it's a conscious reflection of something we will never understand, only enjoy'. Does that make any sense?
