Is enlightenment the same "or" different to unenlightenment?

Is enlightenment the same "or" different to duality?

Thank-u


Love,

I voted path with heart, but see, I think following a path with heart would be the same as living life to its fullest. How can it not be?

If we're on a path which is making us miserable, we're not on a path with heart, and then, thereby we're not living life to fullest. However if we are, then its different. For myself, on a path with heart, vs one just like everyone elses the world appears more unique, more beautiful, more breathtaking. It isnt masked by everyones 'opinions' or everyones views, cause we all can get bound to wrong perception.

Taking time to just live in the moment, not worrying about the past or future, but grasping the eternal in the moment. Im alive, in the moment. My moment will pass but something remains which has been experiencing these many moments intertwined, for quite sometime. A part of me that doesnt change though change occurs to me, and all around me. There is a me, and then a 'not me' cause there is a dual, as well as a nondual. After one day I shed the 'me' the observer will go on, cause something has to. If duality is so, then there is both mortality and immortality as well.

Ellen, did you write this or is it a quote?  Either way, I think it is spot on. I like to call it "Following my Bliss" in honor of Joseph Campbell.

On my forum, I have an Oracle Lady whose name is "Triple" - She is triple for having 3 bodies. The manifestation body, the non dual body of Nirvana, and the Bliss body.

Hey May, I wrote it, of course.

If I've never said this before ( I know I haven't) I think you have a most remarkable mind.

There are many points. And the points can constantly change.
They are also unique to the individual. I am existentialist. We
must determine our own meaning. I can say I am for healing,
growing & actualizing into one's potential. Everyone has a gift
& a seed of life. To find one's gift, and pursue it. To learn to
transcend the illusions and distractions of the world, to get into
a state of flow. To ignore illusions and be happy doing what one
was meant to be. Along the way to learn life's lessons, to be
humble and transcend one's ego.  Finally living life.

what is the point?
what resonates most, and if at all, why?

it may be life is only worthwhile at moments. perhaps that is all we ought to expect. ~sherwood anderson


much enlightenment in many places and actions, agendas hidden, and plenty personal irritation created (to be remedied or not). imho

just venting \!!
it's not this forum that causes me to do so.
i love this place for its great spirit.
