[invasuant]

Hello Lazy Eye,

Thank you very much for your answer.

I was wondering if we as Buddhists have a common objective. I ve always thought that the ultimate goal for Buddhists is to get awakened by getting rid of illusion (the ego). But your answer implies that it all depends on our personal priorities, so if i want to become enlightened i have no choice but to become a monastic,

Its quite depressing when i think that it took a genious like the Buddha six years to completely drop his ego, so its almost mission impossible for someone like myself. Maybe i should rethink my priorities.

Once again, thank you for your calrification.

Regards,
Bundokji
