Enlightenment has been a term that has become a mainstream focus in the Western world with the continued interest in meditation and spirituality. It is often considered an experience that requires years of seeking, a guru or teacher, or a monastic life. This book provides a clear and easy way to experience enlightenment and recognize that it is already the case and available to all human beings at all times.
Even though the title seems like a 'run of the mill' self help book, it is not. 'Discovering the obvious' is the apt summary of what this book is all about. The book also explains why most of us don't discover it even though it is obvious. The enlightenment that is mentioned here is the simple and direct perception which is conscious awareness itself. This is a short and succinct book about awareness that is apt for someone who is already familiar with this subject matter.
Excellent brief to the point description of the experience of awakening and tips for living it!
After reading many, many books on the subject of enlightenment I did not expect to enjoy this “recap” but I found myself over and over thinking “I couldn’t have said that better myself. I was also pleased to see that the author is a fan of Douglas Harding. Highly recommended!
Well worth your time to read this - if you are serious about Self-Realization. I have had a number of glimpses whilst reading this. Just one was worth it, but i had a number.
Very clearly written book on enlightenment. The author demystifies enlightenment, making it accessible to anyone. Highly recommend to anyone interested in discovering their true nature.
