The 'secret' of Enlightenment/Self-Realisation

"Enlightenment is a secret that very few people know about and even fewer people understand.
Why is it a secret? Because Enlightenment does not exist in time. That's why it's a secret and that's why it will always be a secret. Enlightenment is a vision that cannot be held or grasped in any way.
... It's a fire that a person is either going to jump into or run away from. This fire burns beyond the mind. No-time is the place where this secret abides. Realise that and you realise the Self you are when there's no mind and no time. Realise that, and cling to that alone as your own Self."
- Andrew Cohen
