... Isn't searching for a life purpose or pursuing your life purpose preventing you from attaining enlightenment?

More of a journey to enlightened.

How far has this journey gone?

Have you let go completely. Are we detached from all possession, material things, or being?

Just one more step closer.

If it isn't genuine, yes.

There is nothing to attain though, only to realize something that is already there.


God is love

Whoever lives in love lives in God

And God in them

No need to detach from being,  it's the only thing that will always be with you.

It could be a distraction.

But it could also be said that if the only purpose you have is enlightenment...it may help  (some teachers have said as much).  Of course, wanting and pursuing enlightenment too could be a hindrance (or so it can be argued - some teachers have said as much).

Actually, this very question is a distraction that is hindering enlightenment.  Instead of the questions, it would be better to just be still, be quiet, be present.  Be still and know...that sort of thing.
