Soft awakening:
think of it as a soft awakening, gentle, continuous in a way - there's no ultimate knowledge gained, no sense of self permanently erased. What's seen is that everything comes and goes through an allowing field of awareness, and there's no need to make this into any grand claim of enlightenment. It's just the way things are, the way they've always been, and we've only failed to notice.
this soft awakening...and life continues on.
of course there's other ways too, different and deeper insights, and some will argue that their's is the only way for reality to be displayed, that enlightenment has been reached and their most meaningful questions have been completely answered. Who's to say otherwise? Honestly, if anyone finds a lasting sense of joy and true contentment than I'm happy for them and find no reason to argue against their view. What others gain or lose in a spiritual sense is not my concern at all. For me, life flows on through this soft awakening, a continuous wonder, always a mystery, and I'm simply inspired to write and share how life appears to me right now.
I claim only this soft awakening...
nothing more.
it's enough for me.

Peace, Eric
