I have had moments that seemed like enlightenment- as soon as I settle into it and become used to my new level of awareness, that becomes my "normal".
I feel that for me, enlightenment is not somethng to attain, it is not a static state, but rather a continual unfolding or blossoming. This means that I am continualy evolving myself- that although I am (hopefuly) in a process of becomming more and more enlightened, I may never be completely enightened.
I have met some very highly advanced people- I have a great deal of respect for them- and I also see flaws- so do they, I am sure, otherwise would they be enlightened?
I do agree with the idea of unlearning- I realy do think that alot of the time we need to dehypnotise ourselves, come out of trance...to our natural state
It has been helpful to have people around who are at a higher place than I- and I also think that it is not needed in order to advance- things can happen spontaneously. That being said, those people have been a great help to me.
