SPOT ON!
When I meditate,
worries, pain, etc. all disappear. Your simple statement "Wellbeing/relaxation" is a simpler way of expressing what I wrote.
For me, new ideas and insights also become available. Some..... are almost unbelievable so your simple word "Enlightenment" covers what I wrote very nicely.

Happiness is the result of an enlightened mind whereas suffering is caused by a distorted mind.

I'm goin' with this one! Thank you, Buddha and Gem.
Me, not being Buddha? Personally? There is only one reason, love - Divine Love.
Any wisdom, insights, knowledge that follow are add ons...if they increase the Divine Love and awe, then ok.

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.
