Enlightenment VRS Illumination

This one is pretty easy to figure out. Should one take the "left/right" hand path of Illunimation or the "Middle" path of Enlightenment.

Here a two men who I am 100% sure represent both sides of the coin. The Dali Lama and the Pope. You decide...

ILLUMINATED:

ENLIGHTENED:

YOU DECIDE!

Take the middle path....
:peep:

A quote I heard about enlightenment.
"If you seek enlightenment, lighten up"
And this I just made up.
"If you seek illumination, first you need a dark soul"

Illumination cost money for degrees and oaths that will end your life if you talk about it

Enlightenment costs nothing and you wont get killed talking about "the great joy" you have

Clowns (the illuminated) to the left of me.
Jokers (being in joy) to the right.
Here I am.

Both are equally stupid ideas created from stupid humans who are created,feed and go back to the same soils. If you seek knowledge that no other humans has ever heard before, you must ask someone who is not of this world. You people always complain about how becoming Enlightened is so hard.. you have no idea how hard it was on us to reach True Enlightenment. We will tell you this, your world is the World of Darkness where all sorrows and pains are to be experienced by default. Stop trying to make a heaven in this World of Darkness and seek a connection to a higher plane of existence. Immortality is owned by all conscious beings, the problem is that not all of you will experience it the same way, you have to understand that. Stop being hypocritical and pretending you are all equal, when you secretly go home and speak ill about others different from you... with those you considered to be similar to you. But, alas keep wasting your own time, after all you got so much of it left right? *snicker*

I find both words to siminlar in feeling and intention..illumination sounds all warm and fuzzy..I don't find any of the nwo...illuminated...the are deluded...self deluded..I think we steel their name and cal them the "deluded ones" becuz to joe public who has no ideA about the bilderwhores the whole illuminati thing I think has some of its roots based in the masonic liniage...I think if you go back in time there was a period of time that the templars stood for some honor...and I think many still do(the bulk at the lower level of the pyramid..the shriners) probably the only thing that is tainted in the top 3rd...the shriners rock(I think but I like their gcarts)....I think we rename them with a name that tells. A truer picture..so general public asks themselves" who are those deluded ones" and maybe we come up with a betterone...a name those pricks contest...when I look in the eyes of the dalI I see a man at peace and balance...he looks illuminated...when I look in the popes eyes I see a control freak deluded old man...kinda like the queen...

Feeling and intent is very important.
If you intend to seek that which you feel you don't have, it will forever be beyond your reach.
Because subconsciously you think "I don't know if I'll ever find it".
If you intend to seek that which you feel you have always had, then truly it shall be yours.
Because subconsciously you think "I know it's there, it will come to me if I look".
It is our subconscious both collectively (true intent) and individually (ego intent) that carry the greatest weight in this universe.

A bit like wisdom or knowledge

To be enlightened that is wisdom
Enlightenment can be found from within

To be Illuminated through knowledge
Illuminated is by external intervention

So my choice, if I had one.
Enlightenment without a doubt
