enlighten me 

Asking someone to explain what they are saying or have written. This is often used as an insult, implying that the person is stupid, or, lying.

"Oh, is that so? Please enlighten me, as to how you came to that conclusion."

beanie enlightenment 

when you discover where the beanies congregate

first theorised by buddist monks within the shanghai region and later confirmed by a research team lead by Isaac Rizzton, Charles Darrizz and Neil deGrizz Tyson

they found strong correlations between building subjects and the beanie population within the immediate vicinity

for example: physics has a 1:0 building to beanie ratio, however social studies ratio tends to infinity for the latter, limited only by the size of the building

Oscar: "went into the english building for the first time in a year and i think i made a wrong turn cause i ended up at beanie boulevard"
Tay: "i already know" *blows dust off old book and flips to blank page* "beanie enlightenment"
"have you got a pen i can borrow?"
Oscar: "yeman"
Tay:*writes Oscar's name into the ancient scripture*
Oscar: *Ascends*
Tay:"my time has come" *fades away*

Period of Enlightenment 

The brief stretch of time just after a good morning shit, coinciding with ones morning coffee kicking in, that is characterized by peak mental illumination and a deep sense of physical bliss.

Jake waltzed out onto the deck, took a deep breath of the crisp morning air, plopped down in a recliner, kicked his feet up over the deck railing, clicked open the e-magazine on his iPad, took another sip of coffee, gazed off into nothingness, and sighed deeply as he entered his period of enlightenment.

Spiritual enlightenment 

Spiritual enlightenment is the discovery of a whole dimension of yourself hidden in plain sight that you had never experienced before: your true Self. This dimension is not perceivable with the senses because it’s not within the field of your awareness. Instead, it is the source and ground of your awareness itself.

Therefore, you can’t know this dimension with the mind. You can only know it by being it, which activates a dormant cognitive device far superior to the mind. This is achieved by forgoing all mental distractions and allowing every bit of your awareness to return to its source. Because when the full weight of your attention rests idly on its ground, a sinkhole opens up into this dimension and you become your true Self.

The inexpressible knowledge that you gain by being your Self is so astonishingly clear, certain, and revealing that it blows your mind and shatters all your previous ideas and conceptions of reality. This knowledge affords a vantage point from which you realize that while everything that you perceive (i.e. your mind, your body, and the entire physical universe) is transitory and ephemeral, your true Self exists absolutely, beyond time and space, always here and always now.

Furthermore, being your Self brings with it an unshakeable state of peace and fulfillment that is completely indescribable; a glorious state in which being, knowing, and loving are one and the same. Because in that state, all is one, and your Self is all that exists.

A: Yesterday I reached spiritual enlightenment.
B: What do you mean?
C: I mean that I realized who I AM.

enlightenment

More than just the simple belief that divinity lies within all life equally, it is the personal experience of this. It is feeling this spirit that dwells in all life,"oneness", that turns this belief into a personal knowing.

Your inner state of being that was present as young a child but lost around the age of 2 or 3. This inner quality found joy from within, laughed endlessly, and had wondered in awe of the world.... no worries or burden carried around as a result of the passage of time…enlightenment, the experience can be measured by the depth and degree of inner peace.

The Enlightenment of Alexander

A very kinky LGBT erotic romance novel written by author B Q Hanson that involves plenty of BDSM. It's closely similar to Fifty Shades of Grey except it's about two college roommates who have tons of kinky sex as well as the protagonist copying several major characteristics about the other main character to live like him.

Example 1:

Person 1: I sure wish somebody would love who I am so much that they would like to live like me.

Person 2: Read The Enlightenment of Alexander

Example 2:

Person 1: We should get a little freaky tonight.

Person 2: Do you mean freaky like The Enlightenment of Alexander freaky?

Enlightened English Teacher Syndrome 

The more an english teacher preaches living life and talks about it, the more work s/he seems to give and the less s/he seems to have lived life.

English Teacher: Class, go home this weekend and write a ten page report about carpe diem.
Class: Fuck! She's got Enlightened English Teacher Syndrome
