You are already enlightened

Yes, you can, although the probability of this happening depends on what you mean by enlightenment. If you mean mystical knowledge concerning the ineffable truth of Being, then your chances are pretty small. You would need to be poised on the edge of such enlightenment already, such that you only need the very slightest nudge in order to make the leap. But if by enlightenment you simply mean gaining some insights that will help you advance toward greater wisdom, then your chances are somewhat better.
Here is a challenge for you: Click on my profile and read about a dozen of my answers. (I suggest focusing on the more philosophical topics such as "Life..... SCIENTIFICALLY?", "Question about consciousness…", "How can we sort out this problem of consciousness?", "What is a deed of quantum orgasm?" and so on.)
If, after carefully reading my answers you don't feel like you've learned anything of value, then I will…er…ah…hmmm…let's see…I will come back to this very question and publicly apologize for wasting your time. I will also prostrate (note: that's "prostrate" not "prostate" or "prostitute") myself before you (cyber-spatially speaking) and humbly beg for your merciful forgiveness. Of course, you would also have the option of just kicking my philosophical butt, if that is your preference.

For all you know, you may well find the path to enlightenment here at YA or for that matter anywhere......... the outside influence is just the catalyst..... the real way comes from the within!! YA stands a good chance to provide the catalyst since there is such a variety of people putting out their views and thoughts here!!

Not enlightenment in the truest sense of the word, but you might get a glimpse at some aspects of human nature you never imagined existing. You might also see how appalling spelling, bad grammar and poor syntax have become quite commonplace.

Only partly. By reading YA you may gain somevery useful advice or information, but the real way to enlightenment is by learning from your own experience, and thinking your own thoughts. Drawing your own conclusions from things which have happened to you.

References to that result were bumped off with techniques from monks at Nicene yet some slipped with the help of. King James version is about the most precise translation i am going to discover even though it nonetheless leaves a lot to be wanted, because it remains a translation. you could not translate a parable (tale) into the right words which will impart the most excellent meanings. yet they did their perfect. each and each and every of the understanding you're searching for for is in you. you're conscious of it. all of us do. a lot of human beings recollect it. each and every so often this is going to come at you and also you've were given to visual show unit adequate to are conscious of it even as it does. try this with techniques from preserving your self healthful and do not take any type of drug or medicine, stay faraway from chemical substances and toxins. Do an fairly good detox too. it truly is the placing out element. besides, wish this enables some? you could continuously message me for information. it is in elementary terms an answer for your question.

Depends how good you are at determining truth.
All truth is relative, so hold on to the fact until you see another truth that dispels the first. Remember, there is no such thing as false - if you see something as false, then you have seen the truth!

Enlightenment doesnt have a location

You could. Do you have discrimination?? Can you discern what thoughts to keep and build upon & what thought to ignore? God always gives us our hearts desire. Do you really know what your hearts desire is?? Have you prayed for a saint who has the power of God to give shaktipat ?? (Baptism with spirit and with fire.) There are many on earth NOW who have this power.
