Handbook for the Recently Enlightened: What Enlightenment Is and How to Attain It

Enlightenment is easier these days than ever. You don't even have to travel to the Far East, thanks to the discovery that in the West we have traditions every bit as effective. But how do we recognise enlightenment? What are the common errors to avoid? And what role should religion and philosophy play? Whether you're already enlightened or just starting out, be perplexed no longer! From meditation, chakras, past lives and the astral plane, to the recognition of emptiness, absolute truth and the nature of the divine, Duncan Barford shares his experience of the Buddhist and western occult traditions, offering unexpected insights into how to become enlightened with a minimum of fuss.
