I once read a very wise person say that being aware was realizing we do not know. Enlightenment is said to come with awareness, so maybe enlightenment is admitting and knowing that we do know. Anyways just something that made sense to me.

I also listened to someone talk about how the questions like "what is the purpose of us being here" is not a very appropriate question in scientific terms.. more suitable to things that were indeed created for a specific purpose.. like a can opener. Anyways it was quite interesting listening to that viewpoint. For someone like myself who likes to mix science with spirituality it did make a lot of sense to me.
