What is enlightenment ?

What is enlightenment ?

It can be described in following different wordings.

1. It is realisation of "natural state" in which we already are, simply by way of understanding the fact that "Everything is" "as it should have been".

2. It is realisation/discovery of this fact that ""EVERYTHING IS HAPPENING ON ITS OWN. NOTHING IS IN ANYBODY'S CONTROL I.E. FEELING OF DOERSHIP IS A FALSE IDEA ALTOGETHER".

3. It is realisation/knowing the fact that "THE FEELING/KNOWLEDGE OF SEPARATENESS IS FALSE/ILLUSION" .

4. On the physical level "it is a state of total relaxation of nervous system with full awarenes and alertness."

5. It is a state in which a person regains the "innocence and simplicity" of his childhood. It was just covered by illusory ego/mind/so called knowledge.

6. It is realisation of the fact that "the ego/mind has no positive existence of its own. It was appearing to be existing only due to absence of understanding/clarity."

7. It is a state when "the difference among mana,vachana and karma comes to an end." All three exist in fully synchronised state. It is basically sign of presence of innocence and simplicity.

8. On the mental level you can say it is the state "when the grip of thoughts upon the person comes to an end ." This is an internal mechanism which is reflected outwardly as egoless state.

9. In this state all the good qualities especially "empathy" and "compassion" starts flowing through that person. He has no way out but to act in that way (Nature's way/God's way)

10. It is the state when power of discrimination comes to an end in that person unlike other human beings. In this sense the person becomes just like rock, soil, air, water, fire, body, sun, moon, etc, (all animate and inanimate) .

11. It is the state in which the peson is totally free from all faiths, belifs, principles, rules, regulations, etc. albeit all these qualities starts getting reflected through his actions.

The above is not exhaustive but illustrative. But one and only one thing is very important and that is

"If a person is really enlightened then all the knoledge/realisations must be reflected in his actions."

Otherwise the mind has the capacity to produce any sorts of thing/experiences including enlightenment.
