Ordinary uncertainty

The difference between the ordinary mind and the certain mind, or upping the ante, ordinary enlightenment and extraordinary enlightenment:

The ordinary always produce a biography, one page or several, describing the causes and effects resulting in the claimed enlightenment. In general, they all have one central thing in common: they detail a moment when they "became enlightened" and then describe the events and circumstances following that nameable event, leading up to that present moment of writing it all down. (there's a little clue there...)

After that - once the book is published, the school is started, the followers are paying monthly dues - it's all "downhill" from there, because there are no more such moments when they newly "become enlightened." For the ordinary, it's a lifetime of redescribing that first, seminal event.

Now, in your head, how would you describe extraordinary certainty?

ps- watch how the ordinary mind deconstructs the terms used, in order to invalidate the premise, piece by piece, thereby avoiding the question entirely.

pps- note how such intellectual endeavors amount to nothing more than missing out on the fun of the exercise; having been presented with the "rules of the game," you "choose" (but, really, that's a laugh, isn't it?) to avoid the playing, and justify the avoidance with copious reasons, which you instantly believe as true and correct... "I might get hurt," "I don't have time right now," "I don't see the point of such a silly game,"

ppps- and the list goes on and on forever...do you still remember the question?
