I see things as a disrobing.
I take it off to re-veal that which always was and IS and will BE.
I can still choose to pick it up and wear it again.
So it is not really dead because it was never really alive.(Life=Source)
The it is:
False
Evidence
Appearing
Real
The it is a story I choose/chose to believe about myself in my delusion/illusion of separation from Source.
And so on and so forth.
Is enlightenment death? I would say enlightenment is choosing Life or unity with the Source of Life.

enlightenment |enˈlītnmənt|
noun
The action of turning on the light and realizing it was all a dream. Then going back into the dream and having a blast because you know it's just a dream.  |

Hahahahalol. 
Present tense ...It is all a dream....and when you experience that in some altered higher state of perception....
Wow.... mine happened at 8 yrs old...
and wow....and again, after a 106 fever at 22...again, I 'saw'....it's all
like a movie prop...and other xs, too...one lasting 5 hrs in 2005...all no drugs, ha! (Ah, Grace.) 
Nothing you see with your eyes open is real....all
an Illusion....damn good one, too...that's why they call it an illusion....
otherwise it would be called "a bad trick". (Fools everybody...at first.)

Prepare yourself for the coming astral journey of death by daily riding in the balloon of God-perception.
Through delusion you are perceiving yourself as a bundle of flesh and bones, which at best is a nest of troubles.
Meditate unceasingly, that you may quickly behold yourself as the Infinite Essence, free from every form of misery. ~Paramahansa's Guru's Guru.

The point is what are we supposed to do while "living" this dream, here, now. It is unlikely for a human to be able to comprehend the multi-realm Universe, but fortunately that isn't necessary. It is enough to form a good belief for what we as humans are meant to do while living here, now, and act in that direction.

Dream or not, here & now real, so both think & feel
As endowed ... with all enabled aspects ... with boundless appeal
We have these inbuilt polarities ... so let us employ all in balance
Thoughts analytical and intuitive ... with both playful parlance
The domains external ephemeral and internal eternal
Perception of duality and cognition of singularity spherical
The truth does dawn
Even as we stretch & yawn
***

It's a common theme this world reality being a dream, but how is it realized as being so ..
How is it that there is a dream and there is an enlightened dream character believing this to be so and is somehow of the dream but not.
It's easy to say peeps awaken, but can dream characters awaken? I would say not ..
This is where in my eyes it begins to not add up ..

Enlightenment is the empty glass that's full of potential, just be careful of what you fill it with because filling it for the sake of having it full is a trick of the egoic mind.
"When the pupil is ready the teacher will come." Don't see enlightenment as something 'way out there to be achieved' but instead be present of where you are right here right now. Enlightenment is not achieved it is emergent. |

This reminds of Aesop's fable about the fox and the grapes.
