You Are Already Enlightened

EverythingInInfinite.org
I realize I am making a lot of statements in this book that are obviously not true. After all, how can I say that every human being on Earth is already enlightened when there are so many evil, horrible, and obviously unenlightened people all around us?
Not only that, but every spiritual path ever devised claims that enlightenment is a long arduous journey of self-discovery.
Well, that’s one way of doing it. Or you could simply ease into the reality that you are already a spiritual being living in a spiritual universe and realize that everything is already “perfect” just the way it is, with a simple change of perspective.

How To Be At One With The Universe


By Stephanie Mulac, Creator of the 
Chakra Activation System

Have you ever known what it’s like to be “One” with the universe?

To be in harmony with everything that exists and in total alignment with your surroundings. This is one of life’s greatest blessings and now, today you can learn how to do it.

And believe me, this is something which everyone should experience, at least once in their lives.

The Enlightenment of Charles Manson


I was listening to the clip Matt Staggs posted on here the other day of Alan Watts expounding on the Buddhist concept of "No Self" so I clicked on it in YouTube to see what else came up, and there I found this little clip of Charles Manson answering the question of "Who are you?"

After listening to Watts, Manson's answer struck me as profound. "I am nobody", was his answer, basically. It struck me that Manson is a Zen Master.

Simple Enlightenment


Here's a story:

A wise master and his student. The student lives far away and writes monthly updates on his progress towards enlightenment.

The first letter: "I see visions of heaven. I'm lifted by angels, I feel light like I can fly. I can see the whole world."
The master grumbles and rips up the letter.

The next letter a month later. "I've seen all the universes. I've created worlds. I've seen the inside of myself."

The master grumbles and rips the letter into even tinier shreds.

The next letter from the student: "I've sat in meditation for one month straight without eating. My mind is an empty sea. I can see everyone's aura. I see the whole past and the whole future in this single instant."

The master says to nobody in particular, "this is shit." And puts the letter in his paper shredder. The master gets lots of letters from students.

Six months go by and no letter from the student. Finally the master, curious about an update, writes the student and asks what's going on.

The student writes back a letter: "Who cares!?"

Finally, the master smiles.

That's enlightenment.
