So, I am the unfortunate one here since, in the absence of my positive emotions, I cannot have a positive experience during my miserable moments.
I myself am usually unaware of my emotions because I'm too caught up in the moment. I am sure I'm happy as fuck most of the time but I'm too busy enjoying myself to really think about what I'm actually feeling. I'm extremely present moment. I'm an expert at living in the present. I am sure I am much more enlightened than you are.
I respect your view, but how can this be enlightenment when it would actually be a form of delusion? If you were not having any real quality of a positive experience and a positive emotion there at all and you claimed that you were just too busy enjoying your life and living in the present, then that would presuppose the existence of a positive experience and/or a positive emotion there. Otherwise, you would just be deluding yourself. I do not see how this is any form of enlightenment at all. If you were to live by the standard of truth, then you would pay attention to your inner universe which is so vital and precious rather than focusing on the outer universe. I always focus on my inner universe to see if there really is a positive experience and/or positive emotion there. If there isn't, then I am not going to delude myself. I would clearly be able to see the truth that my life is empty, I cannot enjoy it, and that there is no real beauty or good value in my life at all.
