Anyone in the New Jersey area looking for and examining the truth of their existence. I've been a searcher for a long time and i feel like i'm getting closer to possible enlightenment. In this process i think it would help to have others goal oriented folks who will challenge each others ego's and beliefs in this quest for this Truth. That is all. Thanks y'all

Thanks y'all What is your definition of enlightenment? How do you measure your proximity to the goal?

i suppose i would define enlightenment as no more ego or identification with personality. It's a good question and one that's hard to answer. I would say my measurement of proximity would be sensitivity and vulnerability to life. In the increasing of sensitivity and vulnerability it seems that there is also a kind of desperation that can come about as being more sensitive and vulnerable can make life increasingly more difficult. Desperation and suffering seems to be a good recipe for enlightenment as, i tend to believe, they can push you off that cliff. Besides desperation and suffering i think what has helped me has been a complete cosmic uncertainty about myself and my relationship to God or life.

Thanks y'all What is your definition of enlightenment? How do you measure your proximity to the goal? Koan alert! Lol I like D.E. Harding's question: who am I at zero inches from myself? Or in ACIM parlance, who is the "you" living in the world?

Hey folks, if anyone here is in need of comfortable yet affordable workout apparels then I would like to recommend them having a glance at latest winter collection of Carbon38 mesh cut out leggings and hoodies. They are very beautiful and the quality of their stuff is amazing. I have been using this brand for a long time.
