ENLIGHTENMENT is a human concept

[David Turcot]

I'm an not ENLIGHTENMENT and I will NEVER be.

Because it's just another human concept, just like DEATH is.

OR we could say:

I reach ENLIGHTENMENT every second, just like I DIE every second.

There are different stages of awareness though, whatever you call them are nothing but concepts of course. But nevertheless, there are different dimensions to consciousness and most people prefer the state of awareness that we refer to as enlightenment. Tricky part is to reach that stage. That's what we help each other to do here.

Indeed!!

The abstraction is a distraction from the fact. 

Abstraction ultimately prevents freedom, and perpetuates division, conflict, and suffering. All three being one and the same movement of fear-thought.

Yep. This last sentence reminds me of the way this old sage Jiddhu Krishnamurti talks. I don't know if you have ever listened to him?

Haven’t read any books. Just few videos. The message is precise indeed.

Right on. All concepts, including the concept of not being enlightened, seem to block the Self. Even we are freaking concepts!

Enlightenment being a human concept is a concept .
