Spiritual Enlightenment, the Damnedest Thing: Book One of The Enlightenment Trilogy
Spiritual Enlightenment: The Damnedest Thing (The Enlightenment Trilogy Book 1)
by Jed McKenna
SPIRITUAL ENLIGHTENMENT IS the damnedest thing. It is, literally, self-defeating. It is a battle we wage upon ourselves. Truth is a uniquely challenging pursuit because the very thing that wants it is the only thing in the way of it. It’s a battle we will kill to lose and must die to win.
from Spiritual Enlightenment: The Damnedest Thing (The Enlightenment Trilogy Book 1) by Jed McKenna

- "In my view, the realistic goal to be attained through spiritual practice is not some permanent state of enlightenment that admits of no further efforts but a capacity to be free in this moment, in the midst of whatever is happening. If you can do that, you have already solved most of the problems you will encounter in life."
