When The Mind Stops Demanding Reality Be A Concept, Then Reality Becomes Perfectly Obvious

Is your sense of "I" or "me" even real? How do we discover what we really are?
"Illusions cannot hold up under examination. Close examination is the essence of seeking".
Bio: Shawn P is a physicist and lifelong questioner of reality. In his twenties he learned of something called 'enlightenment' and thus began a spiritual adventure of self-discovery. Along the way he met many helpful teachers and friends and investigated myriads of spiritual practices. In 2014 he had what he calls his 'enlightenment experience', because it left him completely satisfied and question-free about the nature of existence. These days he rarely thinks or speaks about enlightenment--except when he's asked to, whereupon he surprises himself with how much he has to say about a realization that cannot be spoken of.
