  1. Yes I have positive things to say about enlightenment. It's like a roller-coaster. So it's fun and thrilling for a few minutes at a time. But when you are waking up and going to sleep night after night and month after month with your head filled with revelations, too many and profound to process, it can get to be overload. .......Then it's solitary time again to recharge and reset.

  2. This can't really be understood without having had the experiences. And if you have the experiences you'll eventually realize it's a physical process gone out of control. ............No meditation..........Just live and enjoy life.

  3. Been there. You don't want enlightenment. Yeah, god talks to me and I have almost daily intense life-changing "revelations", but overall, neocortical Temporal lobe epilepsy is no fun.

  4. There is no enlightenment or "higher levels". Just spikes in normalcy. Unfortunately I've been saddled with the same types of experiences the great "mystics" and 'prophets" have had. It's called neocortical temporal lobe epilepsy.
