The 14 Most Enlightening Quotes To Quantum Leap Your Consciousness On A Higher Level

What is enlightenment? Every single person will give you a different definition because enlightenment is a state of being unique to the individual, it cannot be defined.

It’s like trying to explain what is the taste of chocolate to a deaf person, or describing a beautiful natural scenery to a blind person who hasn’t seen a tree in their life.

Enlightenment is a state of being from where only you can describe the beautiful scenery, the sweet taste of that reality, and it’s unique to you.

However, gurus and mystics have tried their best to give you a glimpse of what enlightenment really is. Reading their quotes can give you a real sense of what it is.

Here are the 14 most enlightening quotes we found about enlightenment from various gurus, authors, mystics, that give the clearest sense of this favorable state of being.
