If I might add………..enlightenment is becoming “aware”.
Many people plod along in their everyday life. Which is fine of course. (Being there is no right or wrong…..spiritually speaking.)
As a new born may look at his/her hand in a state of bewilderment, as if to say, “What is this?”, humans plod through life. When we ask ourselves……wait a moment. What is going on? Why am I here on earth? What is this voice in my head? Etc… this new found thought of “why” and “what” to your being, is enlightenment.
