When I was on my journey I didn't know what to expect, what would wait for me at the end, providing there would be an end at all. There was no one to ask and nobody told me. For a long while, I was walking in darkness. I tried a few times to make a U-turn and go back to the old good and familiar safe harbor, but of course, it was impossible. Once one begins one's Odyssey, there is no way back. ![world_galaxy_space_mystical_fantasy_footballers_contact_enter_world_with_feet-1361268.jpg](https://gateway.ipfs.io/ipfs/QmSghQ5ejQfPAVHPfKKNzUdgyAt326UD2ZLAH1bzymzpyB) ###### Credit: [pxhere]( https://pxhere.com/en/photo/1361268/)

> It would certainly have helped me to know what enlightenment was good for. What was I doing it for? What was the goal, the light at the end of the dark tunnel?

Now I know. And here are my findings: * **Freedom**– you will be free. Actually, you are now free already but you don't realize it yet. Your freedom will set you apart from old karmic contracts, old ancestral ties that have been holding you back for thousands of years and many lifetimes. You will be free from troubling thoughts and agonizing emotions. * **Non-duality unless you choose it** – you will live in a space, mentally and emotionally, which is out of the ordinary paradigm of conflict. The world is structured in opposing pairs, men vs. women, wealth vs. poor, noise vs. serenity, secular vs. religious, mind vs. heart, love vs. hate, god vs. satan, light vs. darkness etc. The truth is beyond duality. You will be *nothing* and *everything* at the same time. You will still experience duality but you will be aware of it and choose it. * **Perceptive** - You will know things out of the blue. As if you have another mind which completes your regular way of thinking. That expand knowing will bring a deep compassion for your loved ones, your community, and life in general. You will have a different definition of compassion. It will allow you to respect other people's paths without the need to fix them. * **Not alone** – this perhaps is the most felt change. You will not feel alone anymore. Never, unless you choose to. You will be accompanied by your soul self which is the best friend you could wish for.

* **Inner peace, Drama free** – people will tell you that you are calm. Because you will be so. Very few things will make you angry or upset, you will look at the world and personal affairs with a smile because you will know that everything is ok. * **Rich, happy, healthy, attractive** - all these things will not matter to you and will exist in your life effortlessly. If you follow the road to enlightenment to have more money in your bank account or to be successful with the women, you better quit now. Enlightenment will ruin you. * **No supernatural forces** – Many people think that when they are enlightened they will be able to walk on water, bend spoons, read minds and walk through walls. Most of you will not be able to do that or won't want to do those things. * **No dying** – first, you will release the fear of dying. You will know and experience what dying is – just a long dream as I have said so many times before - and you will stop fearing to die. Secondly, you will bypass the birthing-dying process. If you choose to come to another lifetime you probably will not do that through physical birth. * **Life is effortless** – perhaps it's difficult to imagine right now because you are used to *doing* something in order to have something or obtain a desired result. Effortless life means that everything comes to you, people, objects, events. Things will come at the right time, at the right place. * **Life becomes interesting** – most of you are now living in a survival mode. Just enough type of thinking. Once you realize your mastery you get to live a life of expression. You derive joy from being able to express yourself, your soul self, in the physical world. This urge to express yourself happens in everything, every aspect of your ordinary life, and not only the artistic parts of it. ##### Sounds good, isn't it? How to get there? The trick is to be it. The more you live according to the above descriptions the faster you will realize your mastery. It's a chicken and egg situation, I know, but it's still a way to make the process faster. ##### Don’t' worry, enlightenment is effortless, so even if you sit all day on your sofa and do nothing it will come to you. ##### Eventually. ![Card_spade.svg.png1.png](https://res.cloudinary.com/hpiynhbhq/image/upload/v1519562434/uvtpyavbjkwocihoak8f.png)
