DEMYSTIFYING THE BIG "E"

Enlightenment is a loaded word, but the search for Freedom is real....

Talking about the big "E" is difficult, and is hard to separate from notions of "becoming" and/or "attaining" something. We have misguided perceptions of what it is or what it's like; we try to become "like a Buddha." We think that it's about, for instance, never making mistakes, loving everyone and everything unconditionally, or accepting it all, even things we can't accept like the abuse of children or animals.

What we really are talking about is Freedom -- being Free. Yes, Who You Are already IS that; it is your reality; in fact it is so Here. 

And you can come to know "consciously" as well....  If that is what you seek and you're ready, it is possible.... 

Coming to know for yourself Who Am I, with your own authority is the underpinning. 

And it is also not enough.... The mind has to be liberated by that knowing, as it may still be in a "wrong vision."

Think of the incredible technological advancements just in the last 15 years, or the extensive evolution in therapy. Consider that also, possibly paradoxically, how you can come to know for yourself has "advanced." And/or become more accessible. 

Perhaps you are just really lucky to have found this! 

... What is required is Authenticity. Authenticity will bring you Home. If you can appreciate what meditation and nature point you to... if you hear the clarion call, and are ready for what is ordinary, only overlooked -- coming home to your cup of tea.... If you can appreciate What Is right HERE... Life Itself... perhaps you are ready for the complete satsang....
