For those who are interested in this issue I´d recommend The Dakshinamurti Stotra, only three classes by Pravrajika Divyanandaprana. Straight to the point.

I never sat with any Swami and I'm free of the mind. Hard constant work is essential.

The world of names and forms are mental projections superimposed on the reality within,the SELF. Enlightenment is gained by sadhana and Grace from SELF. 🙏🙏🙏

Enlightenment can happen spontaneously. However, Enlightenment is a living process that requires constant care.

Sensation itself is sorrow or dukha thought creates the feeling of separateness which is impurity the thought of self is invisible from the human mind Nirvana is a state of bliss

Imagine you discover a power or ability to levitate a bowl or see the future and you think it’s amazing and want to develop it further but then you get told not to or you try and become obsessed and lose you connection to the universe ? 😮

Nobody is any nearer to liberation after that

The true individuality of the enlightened person cannot be conceived of as a quality it is as it were a space in universal being The liberated one belongs to the sphere of the ineffables so cannot ask what happens afteriberarion because transcends duality both the good and bad

It happens when it is your time. Not before. There isn't a technology that produces Enlightenment. To put it in Buddhist terms, you put yourself in front of the Gateless Gate, and you stay there until you see that there is no Gate. Then you have a good laugh, and go on with your exsistence. it will be different, but if you try to explain it, you can't. Words are useless when it comes to this.

Swamji Namaskaram Obviously, I Sense PEOPLE ASKING A Question ON ENLIGHTENMENT Without have THAT EXPERIENCE IS REALLY IRRELEVANT. This is Not A Verbal QUESTIONING & ANSWERING SOLUTION. I Sense, The More Relevant Question Should be ON AWAKENING. Even When Someone Enters "SAMADHI " Not Necessarily ENLIGHTENED ❤❤ WHAT ARE YOU COMMENTS?

I noticed the teacher does not answer questions in the comment section. Not his forum. We answer each other or explain how we understand the teachings. Just a note to you, Dear Student.
