What is enlightenment?
How does one become enlightened?
>>17486376
When you are what you see, then you are there.
>>17486376
You, me, everything and everyone is simply the universe experiencing itself as all the forms of existence. You are just experiencing yourself through one of all those forms, and we call that specific one a "human being". I am you and you are me, we are all the same playing we are not. We are all God, and when that is perfectly obvious to everyone, only then will we all treat eachother as equals.

They are not allways happy, but they are allways at peace.

happiness is suffering

there's no such thing as enlightenment and as soon as you call yourself enlightened, you reveal that you're not.
I may be totally wrong but I see enligthened people always "calm". Can you still be an excited and exciting person when you're enightened or do you become boring socially?
What are different visions or method of meditation besides buddhism? (like, in other cultures or chaos magick maybe)
While on MDMA one night I had a long chat with my friend about the universe, I determined that as creatives (musician and photographer) it was our job to interpret the universe for everyone else. I believed that if a higher power existed, by creating we had made contact with it, a bit like a prophet. My mind is also conflicted about our insignificance to the universe's grand scheme, scale and power...but I'm thinking about channelling this into my art somehow.

They don't become boring because they are enlightened, they still have the same personality, it's just that they behave calmly in every given situation. Restless and energetic does not equal fun.
