How Far Are We From Enlightenment?

We are as far from enlightenment as the sky…
…and the sky touches the earth!

When we realise that altruism is relative compassion
When we realise that emptiness is ultimate compassion
When we realise that non-aggression is compassion in conduct
…self identity melts.

We don’t have to be scholars to recognise our true nature…pure awareness.
We don’t have to be scholars not to react to programming…self control.

Enlightenment is not a matter of being a better personality.
It’s a matter of seeing, recognising, liberating…realising.

It makes sense.
How do we know?
We only have to look.
And anyone can look.
