and i although i absorbed some of the text, i certainly don't feel that i walked
away enlightened.
and i have questions about enlightenment, and different thoughts about it.
we make it sound like it's a place to reach, the ultimate goal - when in fact, being here, now, is all we have and all we should focus on. maybe.
i think reaching enlightenment as a goal is okay, as long as you realize that goal will never be met, is open ended, and is more about the journey than the destination.
