“If, bhikkhus, a bhikkhu’s citta has become dispassionate towards the form element, it is liberated from the taints by nonclinging. If his mind has become dispassionate towards the feeling element … towards the perception element … towards the volitional formations element … towards the consciousness element, it is liberated from the taints by nonclinging. By being liberated, it is steady; by being steady, it is content; by being content, he is not agitated. Being unagitated, he personally attains (pari)Nibbāna.

I thought I did a few years ago. I learned stuff that would be interesting to an 18 year old but probably not very many people in this site would learn much. I remember thinking we all live based on a set of learned axioms. Some people set them up so that they are constantly miserable while son are kinder to them selves. I hadn't read anything close to philosophy back then so the idea of an axiom was pretty interesting to me.
I also remember playfully saying ideas that were wrong but had just enough logic to be considerable. Like beards are antennas for spiritual knowledge and that is why women have a much harder time achieving higher states. I saw everything in metaphor and was always trying to trip people up in conversation so they would have to actually think. That's when I would get em at their most open state. I remember wanting to fulfill all my friends deepest dreams so they could move on to enlightenment themselves.
Since then I have been way less interested in emotional peaks and I just like to listen to jazz and read books. I had some really nuts feeling that I could never top so now I just want to relax with good friends.
