Even a living master I know of today has said that there are always deeper levels of enlightenment, and she is already a master! If there were a limit, I think it would get boring eventually.
And I think you are also right about enlightenment being a process as much as an event. A master...
This practice is saddening, and wrong, I do agree. This too needs to be addressed, and something needs to change so that the habitat and the animals in and around them are not harmed. The best thing would be to instead choose different land to cultivate crops on, other than wild habitats...
Before you are born you choose how your life will be and what tests you will go through when you are in heaven. Everyone comes from God, so people aren't preordained to be damned, or recieve eternal salvation, but everyone really comes to earth to remember God, to find God, and to know God...

I also mean literally being filled with God's Light. I've read that enlightened masters, if you could look at them astrally, are like shining stars. This is something akin to the transfiguration of Jesus.
And your last statement I agree with :D, but how does one realize such a thing?
I'm just curious. What is your opinion on enlightenment?
For me, enlightenment is literally being filled with the Light of God. This may include oneness with God as well, but there are many levels of enlightenment (IMHO). But I was looking for what YOU think enlightenment is. :P

But it is inherently beneficial lol. Eating meat can be replaced. It isn't necessary. Eating meat hinders the Quan Yin method of meditation. If you'll pass on the meditation i'm talking about that's fine.
That isn't true. This method works for everyone. This is 100% the truth. If you...
