Freedom
These binding threads: Attachments, responsibilities, expectations, aversions; woven so subtlety into our consciousness,
Are released, when for one moment we sit in surrender to Shunyata,
Enjoying the limitless clear sky.
Enlightenment
It’s not a goal you can achieve - the more you try the more it fly's. It’s not something you can buy or own - the more you pay the less you get. You can’t fake it to make it, and i f you say you are - you aren’t. If you try to think it up - you will stink it up. Yet, e nlightenment is no mysterious thing. It is a simple, persistent, heart felt sense of being One with others and all life, Where the barriers of self-centeredness and veils of separation are thin. Enlightened beings are not perfect, whatever that means; They are fully human and happily embrace it; They fall, but they know how to get back up. They can be anyone, anywhere, at any time - you won't often recognize them; When they speak, you don't much hear the words "I, Me, Mine"; They do not put themselves 'on a pedestal' - and shy away from self-assertion and they will not announce themselves ! They are not distinguished by mysterious looks or books, expositions of mystical doctrine,
