Instant Enlightenment | Free Book
Explore the Other Side of Enlightenment
Does
enlightenment have a dark side? It does, explains David Deida, but
instead of closing to what seems unloving, we can learn to open as
what we would rather avoid.
In Instant Enlightenment, this
maverick author and teacher offers a "rude awakening" through a
collection of daring exercises and practices intended to provoke,
challenge, and immediately reveal the ever-present "love that lives
all things." Each pithy chapter encourages readers to blast the
light of consciousness on the taboos we hide in shadow, from our
ideas about sex and money to emotions and spirituality.
Instant
Enlightenment will surprise and possibly offend you—but it will lead
you "fast and suddenly" to the realization of the sacred entirety of
your experience.
"Dive straight into this book. Open to any
page and read for two minutes, and you'll see that you are instant
enlightenment."—Ken Wilber, author of A Brief History of Everything
