I recall reading on some ISKCON site a wonderful description of Krishna-loka, wherein every rock, tree, animal, building, etc. is actually an "enlightened" devotee of Krishna, who has come to Krishna- loka and taken whatever form He wishes in order to enjoy proximity to Him. But isn't this a perfect description of Life itself? From the POV of consciousness, every rock, every Being is a perfect expression of Us, delighting in Us, adoring Us, as We adore every Being. As far as I can see, everyone & everything *is* perfectly enlightened, enjoying and exploring full consciousness stitching through each particular fold of spacetime, sewing the threads of self-discovery in ever finer and finer weaves.
