I have learnt a bit of yoga from a master. If you stop your thought
process and all other mental activity (even if you stop thoughts the
mind still runs around looking here and there, listening, and doing
all such bodily activities)for 6 seconds (or somewhere thereabouts) it
becomes Dhyana. And many such dhyanas in continuation make a samadhi.
(of samadhi there are, I believe, many types) Normally you do all this
sitting in Padmasan or Siddhasan (sitting postures). When the above is
done while doing all day-to-day activities, maybe that is what is
Sahaja Nirvikalpa samadhi.
Of course this process is done in steps. so much for my knowledge
about enlightenment.

On a serious note, you have already explained. In my words, to say
that there is a difference and explain, will amount to not being
honest and to say there is none will be dishonest on my part.
The day I feel the pain of someone else, I could say there is none. Or
will I?

If you are seeking, then be clear about what it is that you are
seeking and be one-pointed about that with resolve. In other words,
find out who you really are. Earnestness and resolve will not let you
be led astray. Without such resolve, surely you will only bob around
and then be drowned in a sea of concepts and opinions.
Namaste
Since you didn't answer that question, how many paisa to the Euro?

Certainly.

Am I already not? Don't I already have sea of concepts to be worried
about a few drops more? Won't even seven seas dry out if they have
to?

Boddhidharma said, "This one life has no form and is empty by nature.
If you become attached by any form, you should reject it. If you see
an ego, a soul, a birth, or a death, reject them all".
To this Seung Sahn might add, "And stop making them".
Man can gain boundless happiness by merely turning the mind inwards.
Heart of every being is full of sound, light and joy. Curb the outside
attractions and return back to your home.
As long as the human being doesn’t dive inside of himself, his
miseries do not cease. Calling Him forever and ever, dive deep into
your self.

The point was made that with enlightenment one masters the thought
process and can will thought, or not. OK, so who is willing the
thought and isn;t the will just another thought and who
