What did you lose as a result of spiritual awakening?

Everything. Nothing belongs to me no longer, nothing is mine.

Whose is the sky? Whose are the birds? Not mine.

I lost everything and I gained nothing from my complete and unexcelled enlightenment. In that, I gained everything, but it was already there, and not mine to gain.

Nothing to attain, nowhere to go. I am here until I’m here and then I’m not.
