Enlightenment: A Modern Understanding brings clarity and modernity into the world of enlightenment. Without disrespect for the ancient teachings, this book, affectionately called EAMU, brings an entirely refreshing and inspiring understanding of spiritual enlightenment that goes well beyond the ancient teachings – into the foundation of a whole new genre and science of thought. As we moved through history, the questions and quests which predicate our satisfaction or dissatisfaction have evolved, and it's been many years since the understanding of enlightenment has been revised into modern context. This book does so brilliantly, kindly, and with inspiration and a feeling of poetry – all the while being of a scientific mindset, but oriented more toward practical applicability than scientific review. This book goes into theory and observation in a way that is understandable, and because of its comprehensibility, paves the way forward for a new discussion with a new understanding of this very ancient but not currently, concisely, and truly answered topic that we call, "enlightenment." EAMU explains enlightenment in a way that is aspiring, modern, natural, and intellectually catchy.
The third edition brings added clarity and adds more material.
