My point was simply that "defining" what one means by enlightenment is nice to think about, but basically illusory, because enlightenment cannot be defined in words. You can talk *around* it, but you can't actually describe it. Maybe some people have gotten tired of decades of dogma spouted by people who admit the above, but then try to define it anyway...
