The word enlightenment conjures up the idea of some superhuman accomplishment, and the ego likes to keep it that way, but it is simply your natural state of felt oneness with Being.
People will ask me: Don’t you believe in God? No, I don’t. I believe in two things above all: Nature and Love. Nature is all-powerful. Love is how I understand the good. It might have been nice to believe in God, often defined as all-powerful and good, but combining the two like that has always posed too much of a contradiction for my poor mind to believe in.
A human being has so many skins inside, covering the depths of the heart. We know so many things, but we don’t know ourselves!
I exhort you also to take part in the great combat, which is the combat of life, and greater than every other earthly conflict.
