Are you Enlightened One?
The following is a final article on this subject. It is merely an expression of my own thoughts.
My opinion is that enlightenment is not only a state, but this is a progressive and the creation of USA of consciousness.
I myself have not yet reached the end of the street. But year after a spiritual quest, I can certainly say that enlightenment is going on in a series, or stages of self-realization and self-discovery.
Normally, there is a difference between a first and awakening to stabilize the later stage that this happens through practice or experience. The awakenings origin of new knowledge on the dynamics of conscience, while stabilization is the assimilation of what is being discovered, a life to live. Sometimes a new discovery can be fully informed of the rule change or an old.
Almost all stages of enlightenment, we can say that in the context of presence. However, the illuminating presence, there are different degrees in intensity and clarity. The degree of intensity is a direct function of height and depth of clarity, and his own achievements / results.
In addition, an increase of long, relations or links themselves on the universe and the existence in Major is also clear.
Very briefly below illustrates the progressive scene and based on the nature of information:
If a first start to think about, everything can be the first experience of penetration and presence. This presence is most often experienced, if thoughts are temporarily suspended. This presence exists in the eternal present is our true self.
But such an experience can be seen as a real awakening to itself .. this is not in itself. This is because, after meditation, the presence seems to be missing. You can not understand, and you will find the combination of presence in our daily lives. Hence, we have difficulties with the new presence. And it takes a lot of stadiums and the realization sets to understand the relationship between the presence of our phenomenal world. It can be said that the continued presence longer depending on the depth and stages of completion.
In addition, during previous phases, we may be wrong a State other than the mere presence. For example, can we deceive “I am” for the simple presence. This is because the thought of the mind has an image of reflection pure presence. This absolute reflection “I am”.
As a general rule, “I am ’scene, the person itself must be more profound understanding. These agreements may also be aware that his personality is not the result of the action. This phase may persist for a while, until the person aware of the illusion of subject-object fission. This phase includes the recognition of the hypnotic impression that it is an observer and observed. Here’s where we start to see the illusory nature of our phenomenal world.
