Becoming Awakened in the Present

Here and now awareness is not about faith or belief. It is beyond believing. Once you become aware of your own enlightenment, belief or faith will no longer be necessary. You go beyond belief. Faith and belief rely on hope or trust that something will turn out to be true. If you are not totally sure or you do not know non-conceptually that something is true, you must believe that it is. If there is some doubt, you must keep telling yourself that you must keep the faith or belief. To go beyond belief is to come to a non-conceptual understanding of enlightenment. In doing so, enlightenment is beyond belief, experience, and intellectual understanding.
Spiritual Enlightenment as commonly perceived does not exist outside of the maya. By the illusion or maya, I mean the everyday organic reality that most people accept as the true reality. The commonly perceived idea of enlightenment exists only within organic reality. True Spiritual enlightenment exists only in the context as it pertains to your true self, the Brahman, The One.
The Brahman is the Hindu idea of the unchanging, infinite, divine substrate of all energy, matter, time, space and existence. You cannot attain it, because what you seek, you are. The difference between those who are enlightened and those who are not, is that the former knows it. They do not believe they are enlightened, they non-conceptually recognize their enlightenment. They have ended their seeking and are now being, as the quest is the goal.To recognize your enlightenment is for you to awaken your current awareness and to snap out of your daydream.
The jargon and language used to describe this process is limited. As limited as it is, it will suffice to get to the realization you are struggling for. For instance, you can say that self awareness is attainable and self awareness is not obtainable, or that you are everything and you are nothing and they are all correct. Be patient, it will all fall into place.

It is in the present moment that you must become enlightened, maybe you should go no further. Proceed only if you want to know the truth beyond the level of conception and if this is the path you want tread.
