In the ’80s, researchers in Texas put a plastic turtle and a plastic snake by the side of the road. Everyone swerved to miss the turtle. They observed more than one person pulling over to run over the snake. One driver did so, backed up, and ran over it again, doing this until they were sure the “snake” was dead.
A reminder of why anything which requires cooperation to succeed usually doesn’t without proper incentives of reward or punishment. One unwilling participant can undo the work of ten thousand willing.

She’s not enlightened. She’s not a “light” anything.

Well, she’s certainly “enlightened”. Smacking the snake took a burden off her shoulders.

Another “enlightened” one meets reality.

’Hasn’t reached . . .’ and never will. One person’s enlightenment is another person’s prejudice.

The snake needs to invite a friend to visit, and lower the boomslang on her.
