ENLIGHTENMENT

I have met enlightened people from all walks of life. I've met an enlightened upcoming rap artists. I've met very enlighten Christian people, I've met others who are Rastafarian, traditional healers, and scientists, and even Hip-hop artists. There is all kinds of enlightenment from all different walks of life. All enlightened beings posses one distinct characteristic and that is, they are so well in tune of the awareness that all things are one, and that no one mode of philosophy or theological translation of what divinity is, is better than the other.

Enlightenment is no respecter of colour or creed or religion. All things in the universe work to bring enlightenment because everything illuminates and everything is essentially one thing. One can become enlightened by reading and meditating on the words of the bible and one can become enlightened by reading and contemplating studies and research compiled by science. Enlightenment is always readily attainable for any person who is now asking for it. Even from a simple utterance of words from someone or radio commercial can spark the process of Enlightenment for the soul that now yearns to understand.

An enlightened being is one who is not hell bent on trying to prove his wisdom, or that he is right; because he strongly understands the simple truth that all paths lead to one basic and common truth which is, We are all one and Love is all there is. Any path that makes your heart sing and fills it with love and kindness is the path you must take. Many would love to claim that theirs is "The one true path" and that others are just gimmicks to distract you from the one true path. Others would like to prove why theirs is the real path by laying out testimonies and evidences in order to coax you into following their path. Many believe that through one divine being you will  reach the "Promised Land."  However, if there was only one path and only one truth, to that land then the mountain would only have one side in which it can be climbed. The would only be one tree with only one branch that would produce only one fruit that would satisfy the soul's hunger for Self Realisation. For that is what all paths lead to, the realising of the True Self, and the true self is ultimately in all. 

The spark of the divine is in all, through all and for all, on all paths. The divine is in the plenty. The divine is diverse.

Enlightenment can be achieved by anyone because enlightenment is our true state, our true origin. All religions and sciences have that at their heart. It is a universal character  in all traditions and regions where we realised the interconnectedness of each individual soul to the other. From the trees to mountains; to water in streams and oceans to clouds in the sky, and the air in between. 


Enlightenment is what life is about, to make our light out of our darkness of forgetfulness and thus making our Wills on earth as it is in heaven.

Business 101: Becoming an Investor.

What is one of the key disciplines that any successful corporation practises? INVESTING. Every business relies on investing for success, and for the incredibly successful businesses they invest like crazy; in R&D, and product lines. Heck, even our own economy relies on investors in order to grow. So why not be an investor. Probably the first and almost immediate objection to this suggestion is "I don't have money to invest." And I for one, am completely in agreements with that. However, why not invest the one resource that you always have at your disposal - TIME . That's right. Invest your time. Ah, suddenly it seems so obvious now doesn't it, but would you like to guess on how many people actually overlook this important fact? (By the way, this is can well be a lecture on time management). And since all investment have the dominant factor of Time in them, why not begin by turning your focus on this one incredible resource and use it to your personal investmen...

The truth behind the truth!

What is truth? Maybe the truth about truth is there is no Truth, just perception or consciousness. Just as we can't taste sound or hear yellow or smell hard, truth is just perceptual and subjective to the mode of perception. Yellow is true to the eyes because they can see it, yet not true for the ears because they can't hear it. And yet both are valid perceptual avenues. Reality is the illusion Thought/Perception/Consciousness is what's real.   In this world there are two kinds of truths: real truth and notions that you have convinced yourself are truth. However as I have always observed, truth is a very subjective phenomenon. Subject to your personal viewpoint or point of reference, which is determined by your perception or  paradigm   So debating about what is true and what is not, is like trying to discredit knowledge with knowledge (e.g. science and religion). The truth is that there is no absolute truth (well not in human perspective) because our perceptions a...

Generation eXcellence

I was reading some wonderful notes from Robin Sharma's Little Black Book of Stunning Success ( http://www.robinsharma.com/leadership-best ) and a thought crossed my mind: have we settled for mediocrity in our society?  Have we  allowed ourselves to tolerate mediocrity in our lives, because the truth is we interact with the aspects of the world which match our own standards. We see the world not as it is but as we are . How often do we offer less than our best to the quality of relationships with ourselves and things.? Are we allowing the quality of our lives be compromised due to what everybody else is doing? This is even evident  to how we  treat nature. The care with which we have for our natural environment is something of grave concern, and many defend this mediocre behaviour with "everybody else is doing it." and the worst one yet, "We are creating jobs for others"  Have we accepted me...
