I find myself every once in a while thinking: how perfect is all of is? Wow. It’s not always good, it’s certainly not exactly how I’d make it. There’s so much suffering. I’ve dealt with my fair share.
But sometimes it just feels really really right.
Some traditions consider enlightenment to be a state that people come in and out of. Some more or less often, maybe some people never feel it.
I think this feeling of everything just making so much sense is what they mean by enlightenment.
Even when it doesn’t feel right I remember that is has plenty of times before, and of course it will again. And that makes it feel almost perfect right now.
