I have not read Jack Kornfeilds book: " After the enlightenment time for the laundry " but I under stood the concept the moment It drifted into my ears as I have lived it. I am also not a great reader of contemporary spiritual thought but as is my practice of keeping up with my hyper processing evolution, I seem to be up and already practicing what is most current. I spent 10+ years as a monk in the Sri Chinmoy Center. A celebate and a vegetarian, I was also a committed athlete, singer, artist and writer and a professional dishwasher. Yes I went pro and I love shiney pan bottoms and stainless steel to this day.
My understanding of the concept of "After the enlightenment "etc. is that after one touches ones divinity and becomes somewhat firmiliar with it one is ready to begin to process, realease and bring up to snuff all the levels of his or her existance. Bare the brunt of ones own karma if you will. This is a multi leveled party be sure, full of detours and unwanted guests. Everything embarrassing and dark come to play in the light, often oddly enough by trying to stop it. As a devoted disciple of my self, under the house of Chinmoy Kumar I began at 19 in earnest to uncover divinity and it's well kept secrets.
