It is a very intelligent and logical question for a spiritual seeker....Which way to Enlightenment?
I shall try and share what I learnt from my spiritual master. We all think that heaven is a place we have to reach. But heaven is right here within us. People think they have to go somewhere to reach heaven, so they leave heaven and go through hell.
We are all spiritual beings having material experience. The essence of our being is Eternity, Knowledge and Bliss. But when we take this human form, we start identifying with the body,mind, intelligence and ego and get covered by illusion that we are this body, mind, intelligence and ego.
When we get dis-illusioned, we are closer to enlightenment. Removal of illusion layer by layer is enlightenment. Life gives us lots of these opportunities to remove our illusions to let us know that we are not this body, mind, intelligence or ego, but we are the eternal spiritual beings connected to one another by the same Divine seated within us. We get dis-illusioned with our body, our family, friends, society, religion, government, our job, etc, etc. So be happy whenever you are dis-illusioned, that means you are one step closer to enlightenment
You don't have to move mountains. You just have to be who you are. If it serves you to be helpful, compassionate, loving, caring, sharing with others, then be that. Just be, that is why we are called human be-ings. Whatever experience you want for yourself, give that to others.
Be the shining light unto others and you shall never be in darkness. Enlightenment is within you, choose it, opt for it, my friend.
