Enlightenment is a water nipple in a ripple. Got it.

Only subtle minds can understand. Crude minds will laugh this off.

 

If you really knew what subtle mind is, you will laugh too. 

 

When you think you know, thats when things become a little stiff.

At the moment of conception

A tiny spark of conciousness

Enters the first cell in a flash

Given favourable conditions

It grows into a lovely flower

Releasing it's fragrance

Back to where it came from

Peace

Yeah, at my age at least my mind still gets stiff.

Since you have made reservations to change it, you can always choose to exercise that option anytime you wish :lol:

Since everything is but an apparition,
Perfect in being what it is,
Having nothing to do with good and bad,
Acceptance or rejection,
You might as well burst out laughing!

I have found a light in night. 

A light it meant

Shinning bright

Borrowing from the sun

 

Enlightenment 

Meant to light en

Like floating clouds

In the midnight sky

 

Reflecting on a pool

A drop falls in

realization shows itself 

water nipple in a ripple

this is the key

Enlightenment: Absolute acceptance of what is, with the understanding that you have no ability to change it.

 

Of course, first you need to be able to see what is. That's the hard part. I'm still working on it.
