I agree. I am not sure about a specific age though. Some people at 10-12 lead very turbulent traumatic lives and acquire many forms of neurosis passed down by there family/culture/environment/genetics. Making the dream state even deeper and harder to escape. I dont like the word enlightenment. Lets be real, what kind of a douche actually claims to be enlightened. However what is someone to do when they have actually, no foolin, stumbled into this thing the world calls Enlightenment? What would you do? I, keep it to myself. And am completely totally boring and normal. I don't preach or judge. I mainly lead by example and am in full witness mode most of the time. I don't let my model of reality encroach on others or use it as a prop for my ego to feel superior. Im just me, and that enough. I am not in a cult, and enlightenment as truth is misleading. Enlightenment is a word used to describe a state of being. Another story, the fucking paradox of it all. There is no truth. I know as much truth as you. All I am saying is, I am enlightened and it feels pretty whatever. I feel like a human. I look out and see the world from inside a body not unlike yours, not unlike how you do too. That thing that we are all together collectively experiencing from countless number of angles is what someone labeled as conciseness. That is what we are. And we are everywhere. The brain and body give us a point of reference as well as a feeling of separateness. Optimal for a totally engrossing interactive experience of limited capacity for a limitless self.
I dont know if there are any gamers in here but generally when I play games I play on the hardest setting, more fun. And such is life.
