enlightenment is an illusion of the mind

are u sure about that squirrel ?Pardon me if I am intruding on your conversation Yoshi and Squirrel. There are numerous ways in which God can make us lonely and lead us back to ourselves. The illusion of the mind is the way he often deals with us at that time. In this unpleasant fashion we feel condemned to be lonely. You can raise between your self a locked gateway to Eden with its pitilessly resplendent host of guardians. It is only a beginning, an awakening of nostalgia for your former self. It is the way God deals with you at the time. It can be like a bad dream and awakening from it is the beginning of enlightenement.
