More than just the simple belief that divinity lies within all life equally, it is the personal experience of this. It is feeling this spirit that dwells in all life,"oneness", that turns this belief into a personal knowing. Urban Dictionary

Someone who is well informed, without prejudices. Urban Dictionary
Name tag for the state in which the conceptual process separating experience into different bodies is extinguished. Viewpoint in which the usual plural differentiation between such things as here and there and self and other and mind and body and observer and observed has ceased to exist. State called oneness which is such that, for example, the sense organ which hears and that which is heard are no longer experienced as two seperate things. I do not recommend doing drugs to facilitate this experience as even if you do the state will be temporary alongside the effects of the drugs, but the associated damage done and your confused state might be prolonged. Harmlessness amidst a normal experience is a better motivator than the rush for a superior experience. Urban Dictionary

Being in one of two particular states of high achieved from smoking marijuana or the synthetic JWH found in some brands of incense. The first level of enlightenment is characterized by a euphoric enjoyment of reading and writing literature (especially poetry) or philosophy. This is particularly true of the works of the Beat writers of the 50's. This state is best accompanied by medium low lighting, the music of Charlie Parker or Miles Davis, the poetry of Alan Ginsberg and Gary Snyder, a notebook and pen, and a pack of cigarettes. The second level of enlightenment is more trippy and psychedelic. The Beatles "Here Comes the Sun" and coloring in a coloring book are the preferred activities for this state. Staring off into space "thinking about stuff." In this state, one may profess to be able to understand the meaning of the songs "Come Together" or "I Am the Walrus." The following examples are representative of the second level of enlightenment. Urban Dictionary
