Enlightenment
An enlightened man would say that all this is but an illusion. The illusion is not real; however it seems so through the incredible power of Maya. In truth we are but spirit. Some call this spirit; Perusha.
An unenlightened man or woman who thougth he/she was enlightened; may or may not say the same or similar things. The only difference is in the strength of belief. One would strongly believe. The other would know. Either way it is no big deal.
The thing is; an enlightened man knows that he is immortal. An unenlightened man is less sure. Any questions regarding the ultimate truth of the matter are not necessarily relevant.
What you are today is all that is important. All else is a figment of the mind. It is not necessarily real and certainly not real in the material world of Maya.
