To speak of "some hopeless ones" implies quite a high regard for oneself.
You might care to elaborate on what 'enlightenment' means to you.
Terms such as 'right action', 'pure thought', 'correct thinking", etc, without extensive elaboration as to the
context constituting such, is not clear cut at all.
To be born "enlightened" seems to posit previous existences via reincarnation, a condition (correct me if I am wrong)
this forum seems to ignore for the more nuanced notion of Annatta.
