To me enlightenment isn’t an all or nothing process. You don’t have one experience that brings about complete enlightenment. It is a gradual process just like learning a skill or trade.

I like to think of it as an eclipse. You start off in the dark but gradually the light begins to show it self until the entire sun is in front of you.

Otherwise, the truth of the moment that appears right in front of us, just now, is enough. Why cloud the issue with extraneous ideas of any sort?
