As the introduction to the book notes, this is Anadi's most complete work to date. This book has it all. A complete map of awakening, pitfalls commonly encountered along the path, explanation of spiritual terms, description of various energetic states, and how to recognize and abide in those states, and finally the meaning of it all.

Anadi has written 3 other books in the past - Enlightenment Beyond Traditions (jointly with Houman Emami), Transmission of Awakening, and The Human Buddha. While The present book, expands upon some of the topics covered in the Human Buddha and explains some of the concepts in even greater detail, Human Buddha need not be discarded. I have personally found Human Buddha to be quite approachable and relevant, primarily because it contains a huge wealth of question - answer sessions, in which Anadi answers all kinds of questions, with humor, compassion and patience.

Combined with this book, it will be extremely useful to listen to the recordings of Anadi's discourses uploaded on his website. Armed with Anadi's teachings, one cannot fail on the quest for the Self. Indeed, coming in contact with Anadi's teachings is, in itself an act of grace.

Read this book and be blessed with the light of I AM. May love be with you.

If after you finish reading the sample pages on Amazon, you are still wondering if this is the next book you should read for your progress,I suggest going to Anadi's site, where more of the introductory chapters of this book are offered: [...]

In this book, anadi has refined and simplified the teaching from previous works(also very worth a read ) it is precise and helpful in navigating the sometimes complex realm of awakening and putting into perspective various other teachings on the subject. Blessings on your way....

'Spiritual Literature' in America seems to divide itself two major categories - First, the traditional religious offerings that provide a structure and system of practices that, for many along the path, are no longer sufficient. Second, the 'newage' offerings - that supposedly post-modern subgenre that is a mish-mash of self-help, pop psychology, and exoteric and esoteric bits and pieces from history's various religions. It is easy to get lost in the funhouse of newage. Year after year, you mine helpful nuggets here and there from title after title but never find a comprehensive and comprehendible spiritual teaching with set of practices.

The 'Book Of Enlightenment' is rare and exceptional gift. It is a work toward a real Map of Awakening. It is spiritually brilliant and founded on direct experience and achievement. The writing is incredibly lucid with subtlety and depth. Anadi, explains each step of the way and each realm along the path with a clarity of concept and language that is exquisite. His work honors and extends the perennial wisdom, by retaining the spiritual truths at the core of all religion and casting away the distortions and misunderstandings, while advancing the current understanding of the process and state of enlightenment to the Divine.

If you are genuinely interested in deepening your understanding of the 'inner state' and knowing the practices that lead to a complete Awakening then you will find the 'Book Of Enlightenment' a true companion.
