Enlightenment = death Dissolve your intention, dissolve your conditioning, dissolve your habits, dissolve your identification. In other words, die. To dissolve is the fundamental process of #death.

Pure awareness dissolves intention (karma) dissolves conditioning dissolves habits dissolves identification Dissolves all that you are not. See your true nature beyond clinging.

Do you think there are enlightened people in this world? I remain to be convinced.

I don't know if you've read my above tweet or the one preceding this one, but, my contention is that the descriptions of "enlightenment" are synonymous with death

Yes I did. On this point, I've heard it said many times, you die before you die & I'm aware of, especially in non-duality circles, of the death = enlightenment point. But, sadly, I'm not convinced. The death of what? The ego? A letting go of everything? Or complete annihilation?

Find a guru or spiritual teacher. They have answers for your questions. I'm just looking at tweets this morning about "enlightenment" and how these descriptions are analogous to being dead, in my opinion. Even the Xtian "take up your cross & follow Jesus" seems to be a death wish
