ENLIGHTENMENT

Enlightenment is not about what's right or wrong.
We are merely human, we have no right to judge others.
We are not God, some of us acted as if he is God.
We have different standard of commonsense, moral, principle and even virtue.
Some people push themselves to swallow something they can’t even comprehend, they seek world's acknowledgement with stubbornness. They consider themselves as a master and surround themselves with selfish pleasures and bestow their grandiose teachings upon the unwary. They think they can reach the higher place in doing such thing by getting admiration from this world. This half-assed enlightenment constantly sacrifices the truth and deviate from God.

The more I think, it gets clearer that there is no such thing as superiority in spirituality.
Only total awareness, total control, endless learning. And why some people get higher respect than the others? Integrity, integrity is the last result of harmony between thoughts, words and works. It’s easy to think, it’s easy to say, but doing what you think you should do, or doing what you said it’s another story. Think right, speak right and do right is the center of harmony. Last measurement is the effect and fruits of his thoughts, words and works.

Enlightenment is not journey to get acknowledgement and admiration from others.
It's about spiritual self-fulfillment journey not to perfection but to total awareness, total control of oneself. When the mind, body and soul become one and act in one harmony and this is the greatest pleasure a man can get.

Attachments, desires, interests, fake comforts are temporary goals.
The real embodiment of the purpose of living is become a highly evolved being. What is highly evolved being? He who practice virtues, never sop learning, never stop changing, never stop believing, being true to others, being true to oneself, being true to The Creator. He who accept the long and often arduous cultivation that is necessary to attain his goals, quietly shoulder whatever responsibilities fall upon his shoulder. Endlessly relinquish his negative habits and attitudes and has sincere heart. He lives in the real world, and extends his virtue to it without discrimination in the daily round in endless imperfect journey called life.
