Enlightenment

Enlightenment is a state of unwavering fearlessness, complete joy and boundless compassion. One experiences oneself fully connected with everything and perceives the mind as a luminous conscious space, which by its nature is insight, by its experience is supreme joy, and by its expression is energetic love.

Is there a permanent happiness, independent of all external circumstances?
Realizing that everything that is composed is impermanent and dissolves again, Prince Siddhartha left his royal palace 2600 years ago and set out to find a way to overcome suffering. He became Buddha, the "Awakened One" - awakened from the dream of ignorance. The historical Buddha Shakyamuni showed that this state can be experienced permanently. He gave teachings about the foundation, path and goal. He showed his disciples methods how enlightenment can be realized. This path of experience is still passed on today.
