cost effective enlightenment 10/13/14


Enlightenment on the rebound from life in general, will not sustain you, it will give you no relief, no matter how much usage of that rubber stamp upon all before you, at some point the ink will run out and that ink dried will sun fade. How you had grasped, what you thought you had, could not save you from a deeper well of being, a finer grind of awareness, or a grander view of it all. Thus experience will take all of these aspects and reduce them to accommodations of the same old center stage place within. Enlightenment is not a reward or a payoff or an escape. Only in linear thinking is there a sense of trade offs, something worse for something better. Comparative truth like that is a pedestrian, a bystander, a kibitzer or even a sellout but not the seamless wellspring or the incessant whisper beyond words or the drawnness without acknowledgment or reserve. Enlightenment does not settle for words leading thought parades, concepts rendering heavenly landscapes of perception, or insights brought back to the self for illumined payoffs. Enlightenment has no answers, no engagement of dialogue, and no positions of fondness or distain. Enlightenment has a passion for the now without the need of response. Enlightenment has no meaning upon entry, no gain or leverage or esteem of being. Enlightenment passes into and through without regard for reference, account, or outcome. Enlightenment has you as well as all of us, waiting for the outcome syndrome to exhaust of itself, the mindfulness to be blessedly still, the heartfelt to not be objectified, the identity to have only expansion and embrace, and the self of existence to encompass the universe into oneness . . .
