Abstract
|
|
|
|
Enlightened experience (i.e., awakened to the truth) is the most valuable one in most religions including Christianity and Buddhism. As well-known cases are Apocalypse St. Paul and many grand Zen masters in Zen Buddhism, it is natural for us to believe that such experiences are for very talented or specially trained ones. Applying the complexity theory on the structure of enlightenment, based on power law function, self-organized criticality, phase transition, and emergence, it is clear that the full awakening can be experienced by everyone in daily life. Furthermore, it is not necessary to be limited in religious experience. My presentation includes the definition of life as the autonomous being for the Enlightenment.
