Kaos, there is no such thing as un-enlightenment...either you are or you are not.

Take care.




Cyndi, there is also no such thing as "enlightenment". In a sense, we ARE already enlightened, we just don't know it.


Take care also,
Kaos

Darling Kao: Yes, our real true nature is ONLY being enlightened. Enlightenment means to realize or know that for sure. And, Un-enlightenment is absence of that knowledge.

Namaste, kulkarnn,

The Lord has the universe for a body.
-- Pratyabhijna-Hridaya


Liberation is eventually realized by means of the verticalist, horizontalist, or integralist approach.
This whole subject is worth a separate thread.

Take care,
Kaos

There is no "either", "or", only the Absolute.

Namaste
Kaos



purnam adah, purnam idam, purnat purnam udacyate purnasya purnam adaya purnam evavasisyate:

Translation:
"The great fullness or plenum is Brahman', the Absolute. From fullness, nothing that is not full can come."

Darling Kaos:
I could not exactly get connection, perhaps my problem. But, 'purnamidam' mantra from the Upanishad is the expression of the one who has realized the Brahman and Unity of that Brahman throughout the Material and NonMaterial Universe. And, to get that realization is the Enlightenment.

Well, you cannot "un-do" enlightenment...so therefore, there is no such thing as un-enlightenment.  Like I said, either you are or you are not.  To place "un" before a word is to un-do.

Similarly, can you take water out of water?

Samsara equals nirvana.
This is the "other" world.

There is no "either", "or". Separateness is a disease of the mind.

Superior wisdom renders the phenomenal world as transparent. Things are not separated, but everything is seen together, understood together. There is only the Absolute.
