Enlightenment is:
-the removal of the sense of being other than That. -returning to being as the aware foundation of existence. -discovering that this is not a seer or an individual soul with an inherent substance, but the emptiness itself.
Like a fire burns wood, So enlightenment burns the ego. There is a fire burning hot while the ego is going. But when it is gone the Silence of pure self remains unattached, un-expecting, and happy in it's own nature.
This dissolution of the ego-soul ends karma since there is no action or doer-ship.
It is the supreme surrender to the Self in all selves. Then there is no one enlightened or unenlightened. It is the stateless, and effortless state. It is from the single eye that sees the two eyes. It is not what can be seen in the eyes or heard in the ears, smelled, tasted, or touched, but from the Heart that knows of these and contains the universe. It is merging back into the heart, like an ice cube melting into the ocean.
You are awareness. Stay as that only and do not touch any thought. Then you are free in one instant of time . . . becasue you have always been free and cannot be bound. But the game continues for each 'individual' until they reach sufficient maturity to see it. And it is said that when the student is ready, the teacher arrives. And the teachers job is to make the teacher and student disappear by reminding the student that he is everything there ever could be.
Thats one way to describe it.

Time has slipped away Oh, look at all the years gone by. You say I may have might lost my way Oh, but I'm on my way to here.
Oh lift up your eyes and see Your humility Go on, lift up your eyes and see Your humility
Yet thinking it's on my way to go You will meet them on the way you're going through Yet thinking it's in my way to go Well, you will need them on the way you're going through
Oh, lift up your head and wonder why you are the only one to carry out to storm throughout your life, it's time for you to find your way
Your mind again Oh, oh, oh your world again (x 2)
You're thinking freely Rock it slowly Dancing widely Some will take it lightly
But them see them see, rebirth, rebirth, rebirth, is my answer and I reserve the jewel rebirth, rebirth, rebirth, rebirth I'm not gonna serve for you
No one seize up your writing places every now and then you come to study the places When one looks into the system of men We are ruled by the knife, and we are fooled by the plan
Oh lift up your eyes and see Your humility Go on, lift your head and wonder why Oh lift up your eyes and see Your humility Go on, lift your head and know you're not the only one
Your mind again Oh, oh, oh your world again (x 2)
Rock it, rock it, man still always Everyone is talking about the last of days No one looks like they are still from this land Everyone thinks they are, new on the sideline
Who, what, what, what, what, what they do x4
I want you to see, I want you to know This must be the place, you got to be sure You want to be real, you must lead to shore this is the only way, this is the only road
Oh lift up your eyes and see Your humility Go on, lift your head and wonder why why am I the only one
Oh lift up your eyes and see Your humility Go on, lift your head and wonder how am I the only one Don't tell me that again, I'm the only one
Don't tell me that again, I'm the only one
Please don't tell me that again, I'm the only one No don't tell me that again
ALL IN ONE, ONE IN ALL

"Within us, we carry the world of no-birth and no-death. But we never touch it, because we live only with our notions." -Thich Nhat Hanh instant "Experience always goes beyond ideas"
