The news story by Jaipur based educator and researcher Dr Lalit Kishore 'Education is not just for employment, but also for enhancement of knowledge and enlightenment' published in Meri News has been included in the compilation of 'Enlightenment News from the New York Times and Around the World', Edited by Peter Y. Chou of WisdomPortal.com [1]. The news story scribe says that students needed to contribute to the nation since education was not just for employment but also for enhancement of knowledge and enlightenment [1].
With subject of 'enlightenment' being one of the one of most searched area of interest among the Google searches, Editor Chou in his preface writes, "Since Rousseau is considered by many as the Father of European Enlightenment, I have included news stories on both kinds of enlightenment— East & West. It now occurs to me that Eastern Enlightenment is not superior to the Western kind, that the sage after his spiritual illumination in the cave or desert must enter the market place as Buddha and Christ did— to share the truth so that we can all be free. May some of the news stories gathered here on enlightenment inspire us to illumined actions for the good of all." [2]
Of late, Dr Kishore is working on spiritual intelligence and frequently blogging on Wixsite.com [3] and Speaking Tree [4].
Enlightenment is a mystery: Non-poem
Enlightenment is – / Just being in the world / But not of it. / The act of becoming something / Coming to an end. / Absolutely still / Being the mind. / Effortless living – / Nothing to tend.
~*~
Enlightenment – / It’s timeless / It’s limitless / It’s formless / That no vision can ever hold. / It’s in the unknown / It can never be told. / It s a mystery /
Out of mundane mind’s / Confine or fold./ ARE YOU, THEN, STILL MAKING CHOICES! [4]
