Chögyam Trungpa
“Enlightenment is ego's ultimate disappointment.”
Chögyam Trungpa

Deepak Chopra
“When you dig a well, there's no sign of water until you reach it, only rocks and dirt to move out of the way. You have removed enough; soon the pure water will flow," said Buddha.”
Deepak Chopra

Immanuel Kant
“Enlightenment is man's release from his self-incurred tutelage. Tutelage is man's inability to make use of his understanding without direction from another. Self-incurred is this tutelage when its cause lies not in lack of reason but in lack of resolution and courage to use it without direction from another. Sapere aude! 'Have courage to use your own reason!'- that is the motto of enlightenment.”
Immanuel Kant, An Answer to the Question: What Is Enlightenment?

Gautama Buddha
“All descriptions of reality are temporary hypotheses.”
Siddhārtha Gautama

Eckhart Tolle
“...the past gives you an identity and the future holds the promise of salvation, of fulfillment in whaterver form. Both are illusions.”
Eckhart Tolle, The Power of Now: A Guide to Spiritual Enlightenment
