awareness through the mental body is one of the most difficult paths.
I wish you luck on it.
Enlightenment is a state of awareness - a moment of awareness where
one is fully realized?
attained through concentration or substance - while both can point a
direction, neither can provide a vehicle
it is the mind that is aware - if you are witnessing, or "aware" of
the contents of you mind, what part of you is that? There is more
than the mind in each and every one of us
the mind is finite - not sure about that, in fact, I seriously doubt
it
whatever is aware is also finite - no again. Although I can see how
your linear logic gets you there. Again, a mental exercise that comes
up short
God-state cannot be experience only understood - so I take it you have
not had the experience, think you understand it, and assume it is the
same for everyone
my reason is...subject to my limitations - this, I agree with!
