How does it feel to be enlightened?

Answer 1

You see the true nature of reality. Your mind is totally present, in the here and the now. You liberated yourself from the cycle of ego (suffering). You ineffably feel as if you awoken from a dream state of reality you've been living your entire life and you see the ultimate dimension of reality. You've awoken your buddha-nature. It's as if the veil gets lifted off the eyes and you see the natural state of mind. You feel a deep intense connection of Oneness to the universe. You see total illumination in every living thing in the universe, that in itself brings peace, beauty, bliss, love, compassion, etc into your consciousness. With that observation truth is self-evident, there is no reason for discussing philosophy and no need for conceptualization. You fully encaspulate the inherent emotions of humanity. You understand the body is merely a mechanism or tool for the consciousness and realize the self is a non separate self-identity manifested simply as consciousness and/or divinity. You gain a deep insight/wisdom regarding the cosmos. You come to realize everything is empty and form is an expression of the formless. Through deep meditation and a deep introspective of the human consciousness one will attain this liberation, enlightenment, awakening. The Buddha-nature is in everyone. Peace and Love

Answer 2

It is a state where your body transforms into pure white light, and you experience a warmness alike to laying under the sun but all surrounding. Very few people have gotten near enlightenment, fewer even have achieved it. Personally I've gotten close 3 times or so, and the thing about enlightenment is that you cannot achieve it if you want it. Which is why I didn't make it. By the third time I wanted it too much, and corrupted myself. Though I am still trying, my practices are becoming more and more vain.

My recommendation, is just to meditate hours on end. Don't think about it; it will happen eventually, it's just a matter of stillness and concentration. The idea is to keep your body as still as possible but keep your conscious mind active. A lot of people fall asleep when trying to achieve enlightenment, this is usually because they have chakra issues/they are not pure. You will scarcely see any monks or professionals come as close as you can simply because, regardless of how much they lie to themselves, deep down it is their goal and that is the obstacle in their way.
