: Greetings All,
:
: Today, I heard the saying, "same but
: different". When i first heard these
: words, oh so many years ago, it reminded me
: of the days when i could just see the
: difference, or the commonality of things.
: So, when i ask myself, gar, what is
: enlightenment i think back to the time when,
: 'this and that dissolved into a state where
: duality is lost.
:
: Reality now appeares to me through three
: eyes, one eye fo this, another eye for that,
: and a third eye for neither, this or that.
:
: in peace,
: gar

i think that this corresponds to laozi's definition of enlighment - ming2 
in ddj 16 we can find the keywords - how laozi is understanding enlightment (ming2)
you have ming if you know about chang2 
you know about chang2 if you are able to return to destiny of nature 
the return to destiny of nature is the return to the root called jing4 
given by yun yun 
it is given by bing4 
the building of complementing pairs
pointing to the "ONE" viewable by
"...a third eye for neither, this or that. "
