ENLIGHTENMENT (C) Jan Cox 2000

Some have said that enlightenment always succeeds philosophy while others have said there is enlightenment without a prior philosophy. Although no one can explain or describe such a thing, I feel that I flummoxed that one in my writing. Some people believe that enlightenment can only come about after thought, much thought. While some others have said that you can have enlightenment without any prior thought about it. Although no one can say how such a thing could happen, consider how could that be? Why would it be that no one can adequately describe it? Even those who say it can happen can't describe or explain it…and you can't either! But if you push it to the point of describing why you can't, you're enlightened…
or, you're not unenlightened.
