Is there a possibility that you guys might be confusing Jhana For Enlightenment

[Kushu2000]

I've heard a lot of talk about absolute infinity on this forum.. this just seems to be one of the jhanas (arupa jhana).

You are confusing different names for same thing like name (label) is a real thing its just a symbol that points to something beyond words just like the word cat..

5. Nirodha Samapatti - The Cessation of Perception and Feeling

People on this forum referring to 5-MeO state doesn't mean 6th jhana, it's different.

As I understand the nature of jhanas are temporary and enlightenment is permanent.

4. Is basically getting rid of the non duality vs duality. 

So no we’re talking about enlightenment but understand that you need to get through jhana to get there after you keep the mind quite

@Kushu2000 All of the jhanas are absolute infinity, as is everything.

Lol

Just kidding, no idea... I don't think we can talk about enlightenment , even after having it or embracing it or being it there's no words to describe it accurately, so...

No because what we call enlightenment for convenience's sake is not a state at all, meditative or otherwise. @Kushu2000
