Hi bellemeadows,

You asked an interesting question because I have read examples of sayings that it is impossible for someone living in a house in a city and enjoying modern convience to ever achieve enlightment. And this was someone from india who lived and meditated basically in caves.

From what I've read alot of people living today are saying they've had out of body experiences, can remote view things, spoke with guides, seen past lives ect... so it seems that they are able to accomplish some of the same things that a said "enlightend" guru or teacher can accomplish.

I like to think of spirituality as a tool that can help one experience and understand things science can not help you with.
