ENLIGHTENMENT ?

Enlightenment is not something like an end, of course surely there is an explosion, that is a very strong experience, but the important truth is that it is not that after that, everything has stopped. It's not that things have become dead. Every moment explosion is happening, enlightenment is ultimate experience, but not final. It is a ultimate experience but not final, it is not final experience.

When you are enlightened Ultimate is happening every moment. Ultimate is being experienced continuously. Maybe the word explosion can be defined as non-return zone; you experience a space after which you will never have the same problems. You will never have the same problems, you will never have the same disturbances, you will never repeat the same mistakes.

For example:

You will not be committing the same
mistakes, you will not be having the
same sufferings, you will not be
having the same disturbances. It will
be totally different. The experiences,
the expressions will be totally
different. That breakthrough mind
can be called as yoga or
enlightenment or awakened;
whatever word you may like to use.
But it is not ending there. It does not
end. It is a continuous happening
