RE: From a Slave to a Master; a Memoir, chapter 2 – Two paths towards Enlightenment

In the third millennia, nothing met a beautiful woman. "I am afraid", said the beautiful woman, and the nothing smiled. "What will happen to us?," asked the beautiful woman, and a nothing replied, "Indeed, would you like to dance with me?" Nothing smelled the pretty woman's hair as it caressed his face while they were dancing close; nothing touched the graceful woman's soft figure while she leaned against him as they were moving; nothing remembered a bench, and a maple tree, a conversation, and a Guru.

"Who are you?" asked the Guru.

This says it all.

The Buddha taught that we must thoroughly understand the causes of our unhappiness in order to resolve it. There is no quick fix; there is nothing we can obtain or hang on to that will give us true happiness and inner peace

if you realize "Life is nothing,Has No purpose" from your own deep thinking or experience that's called enlightened.
