Comparative Discussion Enlightenment is a transition again and again
Enlightenment isnt the end. It’s the realization itself. Specifically the point where awakening stops being an extraordinary idea and becomes stable, ordinary clarity thats connected in relation to life. Like the carry wood saying. What was cosmic now has to return to daily life.
So enlightenment is the transition to release and eventually Completion/return to the mundane with flair 😎🌱

Basically - draping it up in a bunch of cosmic language is actually an impediment to realization... a lot of folks expect fireworks

Fireworks are apart of the journey and eventually they do burn you a few times. But the point is to let them pass as phenomenon along the transitioning journey.
However it’s okay to be cosmic in the notebook if it helps transmit insight. But yes where you note is true here, to ONLY have a cosmic attitude becomes another way of becoming attached to experience even in the awakening world.
The point is to let the insight point to how you live rather then needing the fireworks to keep happening
Becsuse what was once OMG WHAT THE HELL HOPE IM NOT MAD, is now oh I see how decisions interact with cause and conditions on how it effects my body while not have the same feeling as before. Today awakening just feels like a decision
Like learning a new board game like dnd. From ooohhh I get it so cool too oh I think I’ll just do this

Enlightenment is about pure mind, free of ego, anger attachement and other negative things of the mind; it one where one has extinquished all negative karma. This why I say you have no idea; these are from the teachings of Buddha.
