Poem:

Enlightenment is weird First of all you only see a shortened time until you are dead. You feel a sense of urgency not to waste anymore time. You can not look upon a beautiful women without also seeing her decay as well. You can not enjoy attachment. It is almost pessimistic but also liberating. You just take to meditating and are not groggy. You can manage with less sleep or eating. You have like a big Easter Egg in head and listen to music. Your legs no longer give you any trouble. You can pray and meditate on the behalf of others. You have an entryway into the sky. Your reading literature becomes scripture. You focus on your third eye. You have no need to go anywhere except to run around the park. You like to be physically fit and carefully manage your chit. You prefer your stomach to be empty or only have one spoon full. Your primary interest is in mystics and sufis. Your preference is for poetry over prose. You prefer reading and writing. You like the six categories of well-being. You don’t like eggs, meat or fish or alcoholic drinks. You are not sensitive to temperature but still like adventure. Sex is considered danger and can lead to anger. Life can be exceptionally simple if you don’t let the mind over complicate things. You just need to breathe and recite Simran (zikh). Decluttering is liberating and frees up energy. It becomes critical that you act when you reach 61.8 because after that it could be too late. Spiritual bliss is considered the proof. If you have liking for pleasure then you will like pleasure that is eternal. If you engage in fasting you can remove all your bad cells I am surprised that is not more fascinating. It’s called autophagy. You no longer have the common place spiritual Angst where you wonder what is the purpose of life. The unenlightened live lives of quiet desperation they should have found a Guru when they were twenty. They waited to long and now it is too late so they will have to reincarnate. Sitting and doing simran is complimentary to doing fasting and works well while in purity. It feels like you are replicating Buddha.
