Spiritual Experience

Many believe and even teach

That enlightment, awakening,

Is a spiritual experience

I do not. Living in the reality

And seeing things as they truly are

It the state for which we were created

All else is delusion

That is because you are where you are in perceptions & perspectives ... not all of us earthlings are in the same ...

lol...Funny, because I believe that reality is a spiritual experience and that spiritual experiences are the reality. Interesting perspective.

I live in reality and therefore disagree with a lot of people. But I do believe we can have awakenings and enlightenment moments and neither have anything to do with spirituality. I consider them more of an Aha! moment.

The process of living is, for most, an enlightening experience. Thanks for sharing with Gather's Luminous Writers and Artists.

It is, Ann, if we are willing to embrace the good and the bad experience and grow.
