What is the mechanism for enlightenment?

[KMB4222]

If enlightenment is beyond the mind's comprehension, then what becomes enlightened?
The body and/or mind reacts in some way to the experience, so what is it that realizes “I am everything, I am God, I am infinite, It’s all one.”?
Does awareness or consciousness come to the realization?

Or does pure awareness reveal itself to the mind, and then the mind is left to fend for itself in coming to terms with such a realization?

There is no mechanism to enlightened being. 

Mechanism implies time and time implies mind. Thought can not move to that which is beyond thought.

I like Adyashanti’s description,

Spirit waking up to itself

@KMB4222 Being cannot have a mechanism.

Being is amechanical. It's just Infinity.

Being doesn't have a mechanism, but "the mind" does. It is quite predictable.

If there's a mechanism to enlightenment it is mind/ego habits deconditioning and leaving pure Being.

@KMB4222 It's an energetic change. Now yes, being is being, absolute is absolute, God is God, but that can't be realized without energetic changes in the system. If you study people at various states of non-duality, you can see mentions of energetic happenings. Nobody becomes abidingly enlightened without changes in the brain and energetic system. Doing self-enquiry or yoga or meditation can bring those changes about.

One crucial mechanism is surrender, quicker you gave away your will quicker the whole process is. Surrender is not being patient until better times, and it is not giving up as rejection of being. Its a conscious (not subconscious!) acceptance of what is, so it is embracing of what is, and total emotionless readiness for all the hardships of presence and potential hardships of future. It's also conscious(!) letting go all of your desires and needs because that create duality and prevent surrender. You start from little surrender because ego resists big time but eventually through several preliminary realisations process leads you to the point of full surrendering to god-you agree for anything even death, and bam, enlightenment - end of seeking. The practice of Surrender doesn't end with enlightenment though because very subtle ego is still there, you continue to cultivate surrender in daily communications and daily life so you can embody higher and higher enlightening realisations, but it's no longer a seeking but just art of life.

Surrender allows to be in the moment fully and that allows the evolutionary energy to descent into your head more freely and purify your charkas and that makes consciousness to break through the head. Truly simple process, you don't need to do anything special, you just give away your psychological deficiencies and let the divine fire to burn it, so simple but not easy to perform. Oh its not easy at all, especially if you are surrounded by really unconscious family whose only desire is to trigger you, for they don't know what they are doing. But on the other hand, unconsciousness of ppl helps you, coz u surrender to that 'hardship' and absurdity  and this really diminishes ego big time.

We are born as a seed.  The attention is on the surface of the body, like muscles. 

Enlightenment is feeling the core of the body with the mind (growing and conquering the tree). The making of the so called subconscious mind, conscious.

there's a karmic bubble around your soul, and when the bubble is popped it is realized that your soul and the absolute are the same
