Orb Posted July 5, 2023 Share Posted July 5, 2023 During a call with Phil some time ago he brought this up and it really resonates now! Enlightenment isn't an addition to experience or an achievement. Enlightenment is already this, it's just veiled by beliefs. Enlightenment is what is left after the beliefs are let go. There can't be enlightened beings because Enlightenment just is. This is Enlightenment, so no need to worry about any self becoming enlightened. Quote Mention "Mediocrity is gone. Mind is clear of limitation. I seek no state of enlightenment. Neither do I remain where no enlightenment exists. Since I linger in neither condition, eyes cannot see me. If hundreds of birds strew my path with flowers, such praise would be meaningless." - A Comment on the 8th Ox Herding Picture Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enlightenment is already even if there are beliefs to the contrary. 🤍 Thus they feel as they do. Quote Mention YouTube Website Sessions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
