There are several useful terms that are sometimes used interchangeably, but they are really about different stages of our journey.

Awakening is when we have the impetus to seek more (& experience more energetically) about spirituality.

Enlightenment is when we are about 2/3 of the way through 4D, moving past our fear & limitation issues, beginning to connect w/ our HS.

Ascension of often discussed as if it is attaining full 5D awareness, but 5D is really the start of ascension. Ascension continues until we reunite w/ the Universe in 12D (1-12D).

The moving into Oneness that nightowl mentions is part of enlightenment.

literaly laughing out loud.
Can that be paraphrased Topology? Played with to replace chopping wood and carrying water? Using mule and carrot analogy.

Is it me or am I being mocked? I don't know. I am not judging. If so it does not effect me. If not it doesn't effect me either. I'll leave it at that and don't expect an answer. Peace.

This is a way too familiar mind twist: "You are already enlightened but you forgot."

But becoming enlightened Is the remembering, the revealing of what was hidden. The so-called conscious mind notices its own essence.
