Nice quote but whoever wrote that wasn't enlightened, simply a seller of cheap 
insight.

   i thought this quote from an enlightened human 
  being was worth sharing with this group.

  "The attempt to escape a problem is the problem. See the logic of 
  this. When a man tries to escape, when he moves away from the prob-
  lem, he divides himself into one man with a problem and another man 
  who will escape the problem. In reality, there is no such division, 
  so the escape must always fail, as the man sadly experiences. But 
  when seeing that he is the problem itself, that he and his problem 
  are one, he stops trying to escape because he sees there is no other
  course. In this state of intelligent acknowledgement of reality, he 
  will not have the problem."
