Enlightenment?

[Original11]

Hey everybody, this is my very first post on here I just joined. Thanks for having me.

So I had a very strange experience the other month from what I’ve gathered it’s called “turning your light on” what does that mean? Is that enlightenment?

I need answers lol. I had a dark night of the soul yes, then a three day pounding headache after it. 

Any help or to talk would be cool. Thanks.

No, it wasn't. Keep looking?

Enlightenment and liberation is to find God in states all states of consciousness and to know I am God. The ego has to be consciousy consumed by God, by any means possible.

@Conrad hey mate, yes I have all those things now I don’t believe in God, I know God is real now. I am spiritual not exactly religious.

I would absolutely consider myself enlightened but I have nothing to compare my feelings now too, so I have doubt I am fully enlightened.

@Original11 Can you tell a bit more about his experience you've had?

Enlightenment is not something that you will have to ask questions for afterwards to others to verify if you are enlightened or not. Its an experience and state of awareness like no other experience previously imaginable, it cannot be missed, as its absolute mastery over the mind, emotions ect.. so everything you had or better, think you had before is dissolved as with all illusory natures. If you are unsure, you are most definitely not enlightened but possibly had a little or mild awakening.

@Neorez Hey yes, I suffered with terrible depression all my life, last 6 years I had to isolate myself a lot due to it, one night I had enough and I cried out to God to take me. Woke up the next day enlightened, feel more enlightened every day that goes on. The first 3 months were quite intense after.

@Original11 There are many levels of depth to awakening.

It sounds like you've had some taste of awakening but it also sounds like you've got much deeper to go.

So good job, but also keep going deeper.
