And you believed him? What an effective way to limit inquiry! If the

is he even had an answer? Maybe it wont concern you but at least you
made that decision for yourself.

Would you think that claiming to be enlightened is a trait of the non
enlightened in a generic way?
I was reading in the journal, 'what is enlightenment?' that the Dalai
Lama claims to NOT be enlightened. Until Tibet is free he wont be able
to work on his enlightenment because his vow of compassion comes first.
Now that makes me ponder the nature of enlightenment. Many would
consider, i think, the Dalai Lama to be enlightened and his life a
reflection of his enlightenment.

Boy, does this make me laugh with recognition and it is so sad and true.
I wonder where and why acting like an irresponsible space cadet became
an attribute of sainthood? Gosh, every time I turn around the world
becomes more full with enlightened people.

Now there is a big hello from the universe....

Of course I refuse it. I may be arrogant but I am not stupid enough to believe this word has any importance or significance - except to those with vested interests to promote status instead of wisdom.
If you go over your post, you will see that you are conferring enlightenment on yourself and not me.

Dear List,
Thursday, 4 PM, DST in Denver, am (finally) having surgery on my knee to
extract the bb that has been there for months; the surgery was delayed because
of a scheduling mix-up ATnospam the surgeon's office.
Earlier this eve., went to Psychic Horizons in Boulder, & rec'd a wonderful
aura cleansing and other healing. So, request you also send some healing
thoughts my way.
I plan to have an OBE while under anesthesia, & plan to visit everyone on the
list...altho' I've only seen some of your faces on Franz's website. (BTW,
Lobster Man, you look EXACTLY as I pictured!)
Thank you all. Later...
Love, Michele

About trying to "recognise" spiritually enlightened persons,

spiritually enlightened.
Oh Ashanka...i totally disagree...to separate spirituality from worldly
issues is precisely what makes genuine enlightenment so difficult to
recognize.
If you have been to a place, you know it within yourself, and
need not prove to anyone else that you have been there. If you
have seen a beautiful river and felt happy about it, there is
nothing to prove to anyone else.
Who said anything about proving anything? If I lay out in the sun I get
a tan...when I am in love people notice...
Similarly, when you realise your true self, you are so happy
about it, you do not have to prove anything to anyone after
this. You cannot prove to anyone that you are happy. Your
actions and behavour will show it. Just as different people
have different expressions of happiness and sorrow, so also
for the ultimate happiness of self-realisaton.
Yes and sometimes sorrow looks like happiness and happiness looks like
sorrow.
One person may jump and shout that he is happy, and cry and
howl when sad. Another person might smile and frown. A third
might not show any emotion on the face at all.... These are
all behaviours. But, there could be someone who does not even
feel happiness, sorrow, anger, jealosy....
I would call this person numb, maybe even depressed.
This person then
is enlightened. His actions and behaviour are independant of
external world stimulus and situations.
I dont know if you could call this person enlightened but I can see that
there would be a congruency between enlightenment and behaviour.
>I am beginnging to think that the pursueing of enlightenment is

There is nothing in recognising the traits of an "enligtened
person". If there were traits, then simply emulating those
traits would make you enlightened.
Naaah...acting like a dog does not change me into a dog. Acting holy
does not make me holy. Change comes from within not from external
stimuli/structure. Pretending to be enlightened is not the same as being
enlightened although a lot of people have made money pretending to be
so. :)) And I know you said emulate...people practice being happy all
the time...those are the ones with the permanent grin on their faces
that looks like it would crack if you touched it.
However, enlightement is
the result of deep deep introspection, self-negation, self-
control, mind-control and lots more. When you reach enlightement
you will know it. It does not matter that anyone else knows
it or not, because by then you will lose the distinction of
"me" and "you" and "someone else".
Is it? I thought there are records of people attaining instant
enlightenment thru miraculous events.
An enlightened person simply behaves the way he/she likes to
behave, irrespective of anything else.
So do sociopaths. Maybe there is not any difference. Sociopaths are a
law unto themselves...have no conscience.
Whereas outwardly it
might look very ordinary, the mind of such persons always
travel far beyond the normal planes of thought and pleasures.
Suhc behaviour at times may be eccentric, sometimes egoistic,
sometimes happy, sometimes sad, for no apparent outward reason.
There is no way to categorise behaviour of enlightened persons
to say this is the way it should be and nothing else. God is
Infinite, and Infinite are His ways and His manifestations.
Who knows what He may be up to next ? :-)
Of course there is...wouldnt you expect enlightened people to act
godlike? Of course, as I think Emerson or maybe it was Thoreau who said,
"the god of the cannibals is a cannibal".
Love,
Susan

Of course I didn't believe him. I wandered around and asked alot of other
monks and teachers in the area many questions like that one and a lot of
other ones with the same emphasis. I got a lot of different answers. A few
months later his answer seemed to be the most accurate one.

Once you are free of your past and your future, of duality and of oneness of
emotional ties and intellectual distractions there is no way to rebind
yourself. If you truly let go of something it can't stay with you. For
example...When I was 10 my parents once wouldn't allow me to go to my friend
Kevin's house and blow up things with gun-powder. I was furious.
'Everybody was blowing up things at Kevin's house.' Now though, no matter
how hard I try, I can't get angry with my parents over that incident. I
can't rebind myself to it. I'm sure you can find a similar incident in your
past which you've let go of. I think no matter how hard you dig you won't
be able to raise any emotion about that incident. An enlightened person is
like that with almost all emotional, intellectual and even spiritual
constructs. So they can't go back.

If there was, it would be eminently suitable for those new-agey, crystal
carrying, cranio-sacrum adjusting, aroma therapizing wanderers out there,
but probably not very useful for someone who is only lives in the practical
world.

It seems to me that you have some strong opinions on how enlightenment
should be explained. You also seem to put great weight on the practical.
You also seem to hint at a distaste for 'spiritual' things, because they
often seem impractical. Your questions seem less a deep reflection on what
people are saying and more a reaction.
It might help to take time and try to recognize each opinion you are
expressing. After you have this opinion you might think, hmmm... this is
what I think... It could be like this... It could not be like this... I
don't know.
Each time you push in the manner you're pushing, you seem to be seeking an
answer other people aren't giving you, or seeking validation for your
opinions... I refuse to validate any opinions, because an opinion is not an
understanding.
You can continue your intellectual quest, but build a mindful practice and
you'll be able to find the answers within you.

Hi Michele:
I am glad that you are getting there tomorrow. The healing day! My best
wishes go for you also. I plea the list to think a bit about Michele in her
surgery and Michele to take care on us while she is able to contact
everything! So you can meditate from above for the world healing while your
body is being healed aswell!
Greetings and lots of love
Roberto
