Enlightenment: A Guided Meditation with Scott Snibbe
Enlightenment doesn't promise that you'll ever be free of problems, even once you attain it. It only promises that your problems won't bother you anymore. As your mind opens, you start to see problems as the naturally occurring impermanence and suffering. That's the nature of reality itself.
Ever wondered what enlightenment really means and if it's even possible? In this episode of 'A Skeptic's Path to Enlightenment', host Scott Snibbe invites you to explore these questions through a guided meditation. The session delves into whether the seed of enlightenment is already within us and what it might feel like to transcend our narrow, separate sense of self. Is enlightenment an end goal or the beginning of a new, altruistic journey? And, most importantly, can it be fun?
Scott encourages you to consider enlightenment not just as an abstract concept but as a potential doorway to becoming a greater benefit to the world around you. Through focusing on your breath and staying present, you'll embark on a journey that enhances your capacity for compassion, empathy, and altruistic good. Whether you're a seasoned meditator or just curious about Buddhist philosophy, this episode offers a thoughtful and engaging exploration of enlightenment.
