"I have no idea what you are talking about."

Be happy, look around you at the beauty and wonder in this verse. Try doing the same when you are feeling down or depressed, very different picture.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

What i am talking about is perception, surely a requirement to achieve any measure of enlightenment!

Sorry.

I know your perception, you want my guilt to have eyes and make me sick in my head.

Do you also know what they say about presumption?

Know that you know nothing. Atleast its a start!

You should also be aware that everyone requires guilt, it allows us to empathise. A very important part of the human condition!

Guilt might be the barrier between the inner child. Maybe it can be many different things. To become small again is to become great. I will be what I wasn't allowed to be (difficult)

Is this your definition of 'enlightenment'?

It's what makes enlightenment sad.

What many talked about wasn't even close to death. It was the capstone on the pyramid. An illusion?

An enlightened one remains part of the whole. It doesn't necessarily mean you are free. There are ones that are free, some are healers, teachers.. prophets.

RIGHT?!

Do you know you don't answer questions but instead speak riddles? What makes enlightenment sad?
Who didn't talk about death? What has it got to do with pyramids and capstones (and illusion)?
What poster did you really reply to because none of what you have written follows what i wrote???

If only you would make the effort to communicate.

The enlightened one is the only one. It is not part of anything.
It is the realization of 'all that is' - presence - and presence is not a thing.

When you realize that 'you are not' then you are free.
