Do you believe in enlightenment?

[Mada]

(16) Jesus said, "Men think, perhaps, that it is peace which I have come to cast upon the world. They do not know that it is dissension which I have come to cast upon the earth: fire, sword, and war. For there will be five in a house: three will be against two, and two against three, the father against the son, and the son against the father. And they will stand solitary."

Jesus talked about this 'balance' in the Gospel of Thomas.

[Yefet]

Intresting Mada, I have always maintained That if a Radical Rabbi existed at that time he would certainly talk like a Hebrew kabbalist, the term for house is understood to be Etzlo or the world of Atzilut contained in this world is Yechida, Haya, Neshama, Ruach, Nefesh or five in a house or simply Knesset Israel or the gathering of Israel (his house)
In Hasdic Kabbalah everything our thoughts and emotions come from Abba ve Ima and is called fathers and everything from our world or mans work is called Sons or ben,
I wont bore you wth the rest but somehow that post makes alot of sence to me
we are always in a constant spiritual struggle within oursleves outside of the spirtitual Knesset Israel

Hi
I choose "Enlightenment is something else then the above, namely...*"

In Buddhism, enlightenment is Nirvana. Nirvana is the end of Craving, Aversion and ignorance.
In Hinduism and Sikhism, enlightenment is union with God. Varying depending on the philosophy or scripture.
