What was the key to Buddha's enlightenment? He obviously tried all the methods that we know about. What was his secret that seemingly no one else had tried before (at least that we know of)?

Siddhartha felt cheated in the name of enlightenment.

When his master said, “You have to move on. I am only a teacher, not a master. I was pretending and I am very sorry!”. Buddha was totally shattered and tired.

He went to take a bath in a nearby river, Niranjana. It is a very small river; in the summer it is not even one foot deep. And he was taking a bath, but he was so weak that he could not cross that small current.

He had to hang onto a branch of a tree for a few moments to gather some energy so that he could get out of the river.

Those words kept running in his head and conclusively made it clear to him that there is no enlightenment.

Though denying to be real master can only be claimed by the real master, according to me Buddha’s master was real courageous master who declared himself charlatan.

Buddha’s last hook of attachment and of desire to be enlightened disappeared in one stroke. Buddha’s seeking ended. He became available to non-doing- a rest ,

a point where there was neither the inward nor the outward journey remained. For him, not only the material world was in vain, the spiritual world also became futile.

And he went down to rest. Not that Buddha had to do anything to go into rest. When there was nothing left to worry about, he became sure, became available to rest.

He didn't have to make any effort to rest. That night he was completely depressed but relaxed. Depression becomes relaxation if there is no longing.

When he opened his eyes in the morning, the last star was setting. He watched as the last star was setting; And with its disappearance, he also merged. Siddhartha Gautama became Buddha.
#enlightenment #Buddha

People began asking him how did you attain enlightenment? What is the method? If he had said that it was done by this method or that method, he would have been wrong, because he found it only when there was no remedy no method then there was nowhere to go.

Enlightenment always happens without efforts, it is a fruit of effortlessness.
