The Smile near the Enlightment

Extremely few ever get to enlightenment. Few get near to  it. However, if one is near to it then perhaps a smile is not a bad idea for the  occasion. This is a watercolor on paper work.

  1. In this case, I am referring to the enlightenment in meditation. I had brief and sort of bizarre experience with it when I was young. I did read Sam Harris book called waking up. He is an atheist with over 20 years experience in the practice of meditation and he has come out with some interesting questions. He said that meditation has universal constant properties among different cultures. It is not limited by doctrines. Experiences hint at probable solutions to ancient questions. Many scientist and philosophers still think this is not a worthwhile pursuit. however, Harris thinks that the study of the field of consciousness would prove wrong. The study has not begun and our technology is still primitive to engage in such a study. Thank you for your comment.
