Signs of an Enlightened Person | Enlightenment Through Meditation

 

How Do You Recognize An Enlightened Being? How to reach enlightenment through meditation?

Hello, Jason Cain here and welcome to the Ancient wisdom modern mind podcast and today I would like to ask you, would you would recognize an enlightened being if you interacted with one? Plus I will shed some light on the idea that if by mediation alone one can achieve enlightenment?

We sometimes say that some people are enlightened, but do we really know what that means? We might say that because they are kind, loving, and insightful. While these may indeed be qualities of an enlightened person, it's hard to be sure unless we ourselves are enlightened.

Enlightenment is about recreating yourself, about rising above what it means to be human. It is a process that first pulls down what was made by society and then rebuilds a new mind, new person. But enlightened being are created out of silence, which is why meditation is a critical part of their development. If you do not silence the mind/ego then you will be reprogrammed with the same errors that created the unenlightened humans.

Keep in mind that there are varying degrees of enlightenment. That is, everyone is at a different point in their spiritual development, and some may be more enlightened than others.

First it is very unlikely that the unenlightened would know if someone was truly Enlightenment. Someone is more knowledge about spiritual issues it is our natural assumption to place them on a higher level, you assume that person is enlightened because they have more knowledge than you. and remember what the Buddha was quoted as saying, “That all sentient beings, including those in the animal realm, possess Buddha nature and therefore can attain enlightenment".

So being more educated is not an indication of enlightenment. The truth is you will not find an enlightened being to follow, it is better that you make the effort to become enlightened yourself. Today I’m going to bust two myths about enlightenment. These myths are:

  • Meditation in itself will lead to enlightenment & the modern fad where people are claiming instant enlightenment.

  • Enlightenment is instantaneous and I also deal with some of the confusion that revolves around enlightenment terminology.

Watch the video till end to understand other confusion that revolves around enlightenment. I tried to cover all aspect in easy way. If you have any question please put it in comment section.
