THE PERSON WHO CAN REACH TO THE HIGHEST PEAK OF CONSCIOUSNESS gathers new potentials, and the most important is that NOW HE CAN GO DOWNWARDS.
He has enough light TO GO INTO THE DARKER PARTS, which he was not able to go into before. Before, it was sure madness to fall below the mind, because mind is a small lighted spot. From there if you fall below you can fall only into darkness.
AND THE DARKNESS BECOMES THICKER AND THICKER and you start losing any ability to come back.
But if you have reached first to the higher levels of mind -- SUPERCONSCIOUS, collective superconscious, cosmic superconscious -- then you have so much light, YOU ARE LIGHT ITSELF.
Now you can take a journey into THE UNDERWORLD OF UNCONSCIOUSNESS, collective unconsciousness, cosmic unconsciousness. AND WHEREVER YOU WILL GO THE DARKNESS WILL DISAPPEAR. You will become one whole spectrum of seven stages -- ALL FULL OF LIGHT. This is what I call ENLIGHTENMENT.
NOW YOU CANNOT GO MAD. Now there is no fear for you; even death is not a fear. In fact YOU HAVE ATTAINED YOUR PRIMARY DESIRE: you are again in the womb of existence itself, again without worries, without responsibilities, without tensions, utterly relaxed -- JUST TRUSTING EXISTENCE WHEREVER IT LEADS. Wherever it leads is good.
You don't have any demands, YOU DON'T HAVE ANY DESIRES, you don't have any goal. You have SURRENDERED all that trouble to existence. You have attained now an ETERNAL WOMB.
That's why an enlightened person CAN LIVE AND CAN DIE IN ABSOLUTE RELAXATION. Now life or death makes no difference; he is part of eternity, he is part of the universal existence itself.
