A title, and a concept, that someone truly enlightened would probably have no interest in. In many Eastern traditions, one of the guidelines given for how to figure out if a teacher has lost it or not is whether they talk about or show an interest in "immortality" or in extending their own lifespan. The general advice given is, if they are, avoid them like the plague. ------------------------ Yahoo!
