"Enlightenment is not about becoming. It is not about transformation. It is about death. It is the end of the whole illusion of improvement and separation and time. Above all, it is the end of the 'somebody' who would 'get' enlightened. Not that such a one has ever really existed. The whole problem, the whole search is imagination. Enlightenment is the default state, our natural being, what is. It has never been absent."
