I am Enlightened

To become Enlightened, know that there are no special virtues to acquire. Simply remain conscious.

The practice of prolonging our conscious state may not give us the power to control the material world. It will, however, give us the power to be absolutely free from suffering due to clinging to things and experience in the material world.

Being enlightened is not a special state of mind; it is the mind's and heart's freedom from all clinging which gives rise to an awareness of all human experience without a notion of identity separate from the world around us. Though this is difficult, it is very possible through practice and training of the mind. Just as worldly achievements are difficult, but possible, enlightenment too, is difficult, but possible.

If you can't find it where you are right now, you should contact Roland Jarvis.
