the only thing worth calling enlightenment is perception of the system of the world a lot of people, this knocks them out of awfulness they were only committed to because they thought it was inherently important but you chop wood and carry water after in service to your choices

if you claim to have perceived the system of the world, however, and afterward would never ever intentionally harm anyone but just sort of flop around unintentionally harming them all the time despite your hippy dippy peace and love shit, well, you ain't perceive it too good huh

if you act upon a person and it causes them discomfort and they cry "harm! harm!" at you you might not have harmed them because people are not good at evaluating their own state or the consequences of actions done by or to themselves.

the mythical "enlightened being" can discern the difference between false claims of having been harmed vs authentic suffering due to real harm. real humans are perplexed and defeated when trying to make this discernment.
