How do you know that the room in which you are living has light or has no light? It's very simple, right? If there is darkness all around you, you know that the light is off, but if the light is switched on, then there is no darkness, you can see everything in the room. So it is with Enlightenment. Enlightenment is switching on the spiritual light, the light within. How do you know that you are enlightened? You can see what is within; you can see the Spirit, the Divine Soul, the Atman; you can see the Truth that you are not the body that dies; you are not even the mind that you cannot find; you realize that you are a manifestation of God....you can see this because you are enlightened. You don't need anybody to tell you when the inner light is switched on....you realize that you are enlightened.
