53% Basic Knowledge, 74% Wisdom Training, 66% Ethics Training, 55% Meditation

If you scored high in all categories - Congratulations! You are well on your way to enlightenment! If not, then no worries, you are like the rest of us in that you need to work on a few things. If you scored low in Right View and Intention (Wisdom Training) then you should concentrate on realizing why things are the way they are and for what reasons you take the actions that you do in your life. Be honest with yourself. If you scored low in Right Speech, Action and Livelihood (Ethics Training) then you have a hard time doing good. Stick to the golden rule: Do unto others as you would have them do unto you. Imagine yourself in others situations daily. If you scored low in Right Effort, Mindfulness, and Concentration (Meditation Training) then you need to learn to stop and take some time for yourself. Turn off the tv, put down the book, get off the internet and just learn to be with yourself. Understand who you are, what you feel, why you feel, what you want, what you need, and what is really going on inside your own head. Start out doing this for 15 minutes every day. See if you can gradually increase the amount of time you do it. See if you can begin trying to meditate.

Enlightenment - the only prerequisite is an inhuman aversion to being slavishly controlled by inhumane captors!
