Sublime

As it deepens you will become deeply respected by others, since a person who can see through the miasmas of the mind is someone who can help anyone in almost any situation imaginable.

It is an enlightened awareness that allows us to appreciate the pleasures and accept the misfortunes, experiencing everything for what it is without being overwhelmed. Mindfulness happens when our mind is not cluttered with discriminating thoughts of good or bad, pleasant or unpleasant, but fully present with what is.

To be able and willing to see yourself as you are, with all of your imperfections and illusions, requires genuine sincerity and courage. If we are constantly trying to hide from ourselves, we will never be able to awaken from our illusion of self.

→ Enlightenment is the space between your thoughts (Eckhart Tolle).

When illuminated by the light of mindfulness, delusions are less able to manifest in unwholesome acts of our body, speech, and mind.

Enlightenment does not have to do with being a nice person; it’s about intuitively knowing all things to be totally conditioned and transitory and thus unclingable.

It talked about freeing yourself from the hold of the mind. It talked about going beyond.

So the single most vital step on your journey toward enlightenment is this: learn to disidentify from your mind. Every time you create a gap in the stream of mind, the light of your consciousness grows stronger.
