Defining the conditions that could impact the possibility for one to be in the state of "enlightenment" .
Enlightenment due to favorable conditions. Such as sitting under a tree vs standing in line at the DMV.
All these modern "guru's" have condition-based enlightenment. Have them come shovel some shit while late on their mortgage, and their babies are sick.
It was rather amusing to see our Christian and Muslim friends enlightaining themselves when they joined in with musical instruments as we sang the bhajans during the aarti.
The uni-cultural minded world has not seen enough of enlightainment crisis among the multi-cultural Indians. Has the cultural intercourse screwed it all up for us?
