Recent theories concerning the origins of entropy dissipating micro systems at undersea volcanic vents lends credence to the image of life forms as not rare and random, but inevitable.
To consider the existence of one's consciousness as the result of an unbroken flow of inevitability beginning with the beginning of anything at all, implies that awareness inheres in the field phenomenon, and that those alignments of subatomic events leading to entropy dissipating forms, self replicating and aware, are the natural refinement of what ever the stuff of existence is.
Enlightenment is not a personal event: Enlightenment is the Universe awakening to its Self. The individual is a fresh bud of that vine rooted in the dawn of time, and Enlightenment is its finest flower. The ancient image of the self-consuming snake comes to mind, and it makes one a bit impatient with the ideologues that trade in the various subtleties of death and destruction. What world might ensue in the sway of a culture of Enlightenment?
It is a race against time for this particular experiment in life forms, but the achievement of Enlightenment in it's progeny is the denouement of the stars.
