Guest guest Report post Posted April 15, 2003 actual " Enlightenment " only happens once. It's a one time event. By= its very nature it can only be so. And people continue to confuse these enlightenment experiences no matter how so= -called *profound* they are, with actual Understanding itself. They are not = anywhere near close. It's a completely total different thing. And so people = continue to chase these enlightenment experiences. But that is not it. Judi Manju sri lotus: Sometimes the dismantling occurs over time. Consciously confronting mind emotion and body identity. This can break solidity until nothing is left but a fine strand which is broken then when pulled into Satori or Nirvikalpa beyond the seen cognitions. At that moment is Pristine Awareness which holds no personal form or relationship to the persona which was. Once the death is passed through it leaves in it's wake the illusions laid bare. Awakened Awareness or Pristine Consciousness is. There are no such things such as *enlightenment experiences*. Just as there is no such thing as *realizations* Hi Manju sri lotus, I am glad you like the way I experienced and call the state: " pristine Consciousness " yes, real enlightenment is just ONE, but it leaves you with a different modus operandum and understanding than Judi has, one is connected to the *Source* or God and speaks the truth, not jiving from ego and making erroneous statements love, Karta answer to #2311 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
