| What does it meant to be [[Enlightenment|Enlightened]]?
| | {{Enlightenment Overview}} |
| | |
| Most simply stated, [[Enlightenment]] means to unlearn The Self, to unlearn The Other, and to live fully in The Now.
| |
| | |
| === Unlearning The Self ===
| |
| * Nonself - there is no unchanging, permanent self or essence to be found in any phenomenon
| |
| * Decentering - a decreased attachment to one’s thoughts and emotions, which are temporary events in the mind, and neither necessarily true nor reflections of the self
| |
| | |
| === Unlearning The Other ===
| |
| * [[Nonduality]] - to experience nondifference and oneness between subject and object
| |
| | |
| === Living in The Now ===
| |
| * [[:Category:Mindfulness|Mindfulness]] - attention to the present-moment experience without evaluation
| |
| * Impermanence - all things, whether material or mental, are deeply complex, continuously changing, and subject to decline and destruction
| |
| * Nonattachment - having flexibility instead of fixation on achieving outcomes
