Hi Mike, 
Living in the moment and allowing the body free expression 
is certainly a form of being 
but enlightenment is not a form of being 
nor is it being formless. 
What we might like to consider is how 
sick people try to heal others 
the mentally deluded advise others on illusion and so on.
 
You mention in another post:
 
"enlightenment. To me that is something that cannot be attained through 
practices or goals. My view, to give you an idea where I'm coming from, is 
more along the lines of the Buddha's understanding that everything is 
inherantly empty, including all experiences and phenomena, including 
spiritual experiences."
 
Perhaps we can find the answer in that :-)
 
Be Well
