Enlightenment. What is it? Who is an Enlightened Person?


This is the answer I wrote on Quora on 11th August 2023.

An enlightened person is one who knows reality as fact free of distortion.

So what is reality? Reality has these qualities :

  1. Is-ness
  2. Being
  3. Existence
  4. Ever living
  5. Indestructibile
  6. Universal undivided one-ness
  7. Flawless
  8. Ever present
  9. Everywhere
  10. Potent
  11. Creativity
  12. Sustenance
  13. Non partial
  14. Availability
  15. Obtainable as yet free of possession

The person does not get trapped into the trap of myth. Words are identifiers. The real exists without words. It is beyond identifier words and also beyond descriptives.

A million words do not help to know it nor to express it. One who knows, knows without words - as that is it - thathastoo.

This statement comes closest. It is one. Without another. Not but it. Everlasting. Neither born nor begets. Ever present - indestructible. It is flawless. It is beyond blemish. Free of possessiveness. It is close as yet far, here there everywhere, always, for ever.
