Spiritual Enlightenment, the Damnedest Thing: Book One of The Enlightenment Trilogy

Here’s all you need to know to become enlightened: Sit down, shut up, and ask yourself what’s true until you know.

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.

If I were to reduce this book and my teachings to their essence, I would say it all comes down to nothing more than this: Think for yourself and figure out what’s true. That’s it. Ask yourself what’s true until you know.
