Interesting point of view since it's so directly in contradiction to mine. I always viewed enlightenment as an unique, untransmissible experience (unique as in it's different for each individual, not that you can only have it once).

I think it's near impossible to be able to convey these as teachings since it's such an intimate experience ultimately modeled by the world around you. Perhaps that's just my definition of enlightenment, an intimate understanding of the internal and external world.

If I am ever to reach this state, I hope it's an inner state of peace and acceptance because my current angst is wearing me down.
