Insights - #15

Enlightenment does not mean you will be wise, happy or tranquil. It means you're wisdom, happiness and tranquility in itself ... A simple example, say, you receive a large monetary windfall and become very happy, and the feeling lasts until the money runs out. That's the happiness most of us refer to. When you're enlightened, you are the feeling itself that is not attached to or need anything to generate it. Same as in wisdom, tranquility and the rest.
