Default Manipulating one's self

Just a little observation I have made. I've realised that in trying to achieve enlightenment, I have manipulated one's self into a "egoic/enlightened state" (if that makes any sence) and thus used insanity to try and create sanity. Upon analyzing this..it is no wonder that while I'm in this state it feels like I've gone totally insane. Also furthermore, I can now can fully understand why Eckhart Tolle said that you can not achieve enlightenment.

Hopefully this can help those on the journey and if anyone has some other thoughts I'd be glad to hear it.
