Doesn't enlightenment sound really boring, though? Anger, impatience, and lust add so much spice to life.
@startuployalist So you'd experience them, but passively? As a pale imitation of their former intensity?

@paulbaumgart - You'll always experience them, but instead of being at their mercy, you can steer it to take you to interesting places. :P -
@startuployalist Is there a difference between enlightenment and emotional intelligence?

@paulbaumgart: Enlightenment is to living as steering is to racecar driving. Don't confuse acceleration (intensity) with control (steering). -
@startuployalist Based on my superficial understanding of Buddhism, I think they'd disagree with you. But your definition is appealing :) - 1 more reply
