And that is the crux of the issue: how do I go to the point where YOU are, where SOMEONE ELSE is, where someone else said enlightenment is.

How do I get to the point someone else is, other people are, other beings are, but I’m not.

The answer is twofold:

First - you don’t. You can’t ever get to the point where I am, because you are not me. You will never be me, never ever. No matter how conscious, how aware, how evolved you become, you will never be where I am, because where I am is the full expression of me. You can’t possibly become the full expression of me. You aren’t me.

Second - you don’t have to. Enlightenment is not a full expression of Pausha. Enlightenment is the full expression of you.

As long as you are looking outside of yourself for anything - direction, inspiration, guidance, reference - anything at all, you are moving away from enlightenment.

As long as you are looking inside, into yourself, as long as you are aware of yourself even in a matter as mundane as being aware that you are hungry, or grumpy, or being clear on what you feel like having for dinner tonight, you are moving towards enlightenment. Because you are moving towards awareness of yourself.
