"You are not going to get any more enlightenment than you are going to get."
This sound similar to Robin's self-delusion. The real truth has long ago been put into plain words. No one is going to "get" enlightened. Ever! What is this "enlightenment"? There never was and never will be such a thing - except as the title for a cultural movement in British history. This term was used as a title for an 18th century European cultural era, which in English was called “The Enlightenment” but originally in German was titled Zeitalter der Aufklärung - the Age of Clearing Up. In the past 50 years, the term “enlightenment” became a silly Neo-Hindu neologism (i.e. post-Vivekananda). Now-a-days, Buddhists also love to use this as a synonym for Japanese Zen “kensho” or “satori” – mostly paraded around in books and magazines by Euro-American Buddhist writers. Psssst … don’t tell anyone but any object, state or condition that has a beginning also has an end – by definition. “Experience”, also by definition, is a temporary appearance to a “perceiver”. Any experience of “enlightenment” is likewise just a transient occurrence that is judged (after the “fact”) to be “oh-so-significant”. Such “enlightenment” is utter make-believe. It is a false interpretation - both of Shankara’s Advaita and of Buddhist Mahamudra and Dzogchen.
