This day before dawn I ascended a hill and look'd
at the crowded heaven, and I said to my spirit;
When we become the enfolders of those orbs,
and the pleasure and knowledge of everything in them,
shall we be fill'd and satisfied then?
And my spirit said,
No, we but level that lift to pass and continue beyond.Walt Whitman, Song of Myself
There’s only one enlightenment, and it only means one thing. It’s perfectly specific; not vague, nebulous, or open to interpretation. Anyone who says otherwise is simply wrong (what we in the truth game call an asstalker). In the sleeping dreamstate, we have as many kinds of enlightenment as Eskimos have snow, but once you have at least partially processed the initial nondual insight, you see clearly and unmistakably that true enlightenment is not based on love, peace, bliss, compassion, or some dishwater epiphany, it’s based on truth. (Otherwise, it’s not true.)
Not I, not anyone else can travel that road for you,
you must travel it for yourself.

You but arrive at the city to which you were destin'd,
you hardly settle yourself to satisfaction before
you are call'd by an irresistible call to depart.Walt Whitman
