Naw humans screw with each others minds to produce a desired result since the late neolithic I bet.
If its done in a certain way over a period of time I use psyop 'in fun'.

But I'm here now for my wife to try to help her through a difficult life. There are Buddhas that get to 100% and don't come back. Then there are Buddhas that get to 100% and come back a little to help others.

Turiya the 4th state. Also known as nirvikalpa samahdi.
Thats the thing you see. There is no enlightenment.
There is only play. 'Enlightenment' is just another form of play.

When it first happens it is totally amazing especially if one has been suffering greatly prior to the 'event' but it never really goes because it is what you are - what this is. The idea that 'it has gone' may start the seeking again and that is when the seeker - the separate one - reappears, it is this one that makes life heavy - the separate me who wants more than there is.

Let me explain something to you which may make you feel better. It's the pinnacle of truth that even most Buddha's don't realize until at least the third time through the whole cycle.
You want to be 'enlightened' ? Easy. It's both the easiest thing in the world and the hardest.
Do this:
Torment yourself for most of a lifetime about religious and spiritual matters.
Sensory deprive yourself of 'reality' so that when you look at a cat it is no longer a cat.
Push push push yourself intil you've broken your entire 'human form'.
Now that you are broken the 'matrix' has two choices:
1 - let you die as even it can't take any more of your neediness and suffering. (Besides you really are broken).
2 - send you back; but this time hopefully you will have more fun playing with your toys and stop being such a buzz-kill.
Look at nearly ALL OF THE FAMOUS MYSTICS AND SAINTS AND THEY FOLLOW THIS PATTERN.
So see? Don't stress about 'enlightenment' its not what people think.

You took that a little more calmly than I expected.
I guess you understand that you can still do spiritual stuff if you want to but more than half of it will turn out to be an unnecessary game.

So you feel like you are part of a Buddha extended family rather like the side kicks on the cartoon "the tick" ?

Yah but can you help anyone?
That's the proof of the pudding.
It's the difference between badly wounded and resurrection.
It's a genuine question not human dreck.
