enlightenment

Name tag for the state in which the conceptual process separating experience into different bodies is extinguished. Viewpoint in which the usual plural differentiation between such things as here and there and self and other and mind and body and observer and observed has ceased to exist. State called oneness which is such that, for example, the sense organ which hears and that which is heard are no longer experienced as two seperate things.

I do not recommend doing drugs to facilitate this experience as even if you do the state will be temporary alongside the effects of the drugs, but the associated damage done and your confused state might be prolonged. Harmlessness amidst a normal experience is a better motivator than the rush for a superior experience.
I think therefore I am not one of enlightenment.
I see it therefore I am not yet one of enlightenment.
I experience it therefore I am not yet one of enlightenment.
My mind projects an invisible shell around me which seperates me from my environment therefore I cannot, as much as I would wish it, be yet enlightened.
Your experience is a puppet and you only are always pulling the strings.

Derogatory term, most frequently directed at people who obsessively pursue hobbies which consist almost entirely of gathering information about a favourite topic, generally a fairly benign and arcane device such as a specific type of computer. Origins possibly explained by the information-gatherer collectives' peculiar habit of wearing outdoor clothing or jackets at socially inappropriate or awkward times such as at the dinner table or in bed.
Simon, we have been watching TV for thirty minutes now, are you going to take your anorak off?

Actually C is a better language than C++. It is the fastest compiler language and it is slick in design. C++ is a shoddy attempt to retrofit C with the OOPS capabilities of Smalltalk. A task which it fails to achieve.
Don't worry Barnzey. C++ is as good an idea as trying to convert a nice wooden shed into a greenhouse, without losing the wooden shed.

A person of talent or intelligence who deliberately steers their course towards matters of a dubious nature. Somebody with the capacity for success who fails on purpose.
Frank Zapper was thought a waster for squandering musical genius on the persuit of juvenile satire.
