Enlightenment

People spend endless hours trying to describe the ‘state of enlightenment’ and failing to reach common agreement.  In a sense, the situation is similar to trying to describe the taste of a perfectly prepared chocolate souffle served with Creme Anglaise to another.  To succeed, one needs to provide the proper recipe of ingredients and cooking instructions so to allow the other person an opportunity to actually prepare such dessert for his or her own enjoyment.  If all goes well, then the two of you can describe some of the pleasures associated with this dessert and ones personal taste / smell experience.  Enlightenment is reached by injunction and not description.  So find a recipe and try it out.
