for me enlightenment means understanding something that makes confusion to your mind. once you realize what is a true meaning of soemthing that means enlightenment to me. but i think in other traditions this is a religion i think. i just dont know that much but i know it is like a tradition or a religion. but for me it means to understand

Enlightenment in ordinary language means knowing something which is difficult. In Hinduism it is something to do with spirituality. What is it? You can enlighten me!

Personal enlightenment (in the Buddhist sense I use) is aimed at reducing the control of the reptilian and limbic brains over personal responses and behaviour. It attempts to do this by increasing our cortical awareness of the influences of the other two thirds of the triune brain. Increasing that awareness allows the neocortex to detect and consciously intervene in otherwise unconscious responses.

it doesn't seem to me to be elusive when sought. Increased awareness is always within reach.
