The Nonduality Highlights - http://groups.yahoo.com/group/NDhighlights     


All the Highlights editors at one time or another have quoted Van Morrison's lyrics. He's the guy who wrote and sang Brown Eyed Girl and who wrote the song Gloria, among many other recognizable hits.  

his lyric hasn't yet been quoted in the Highlights. I've included a link to him singing it on YouTube.  

Enlightenment  

by Van Morrison

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mWjh6I9T8Ao&feature=related

Chop that wood
Carry water
What's the sound of one hand clapping
Enlightenment, don't know what it is

Every second, every minute
It keeps changing to something different
Enlightenment, don't know what it is
Enlightenment, don't know what it is
It says it's non attachment
Non attachment. Non attachment

I'm in the here and now, and I'm meditating
And still I'm suffering but that's my problem
Enlightenment, don't know what it is

Wake up

Enlightenment says the world is nothing
Nothing but a dream, everything's an illusion
And nothing is real

Good or bad baby
You can change it anyway you want
You can rearrange it
Enlightenment, don't know what it is
Chop that wood
And carry water
What's the sound of one hand clapping
Enlightenment, don't know what it is

All around baby. You can see
You're making your own reality everyday because
Enlightenment, don't know what it is

One more time

Enlightenment. don't know what it is
It's up to you
Enlightenment. don't know what it is
It's up to you everyday
Enlightenment, don't know what it is
It's always up to you
Enlightenment, don't know what it is

Personally, I like Brown Eyed Girl better, but here are other Highlights issues featuring Van Morrison:   http://nonduality.com/search/search.php?zoom_query=%22van+morrison%22
