Enlightenment when I first this read this word in book called power of now by echart tolle, all the memories of Telugu and Hindi movies showing greatness sages come before me. now i came to understand what this sages where doing by sitting years and years in yoga position. They were searching for truth or you can call it god, form then on nothing could stop me knowing how to achieve enlightenment. for knowing how to achieve enlightenment you don't need any guru. You just need read good books from established or enlighten authors. Some of them i will list here
- Echart tolle(the power of now)
- Jiddu krishnamurthy(any book)
- U.g.krishnamurty(any book)
- Osho(the book of secrets)
- yogi vasishta(Lagu ramayana)
- Maurice Frydman(i am that)
- Carlos Castaneda(essential knowledge)
Enlightenment means knowing who you are in true form. You are not what you think you are. You are something eternal, something permanent in a unstable world. As every author i listed here says by knowing your true form you are free from every problem, but as i see it in search of enlightenment you are free from problems created by mind. You can download all books for free from internet. In search of enlightenment you need not quit your work, as a matter of fact it helps you to work more efficiently. i would suggest one more thing don't stop at reading one book by one author, read as many authors as you can from list. This will let you know different paths to enlightenment and avoid you from becoming slave to one author. If you come to know any enlightened authors work let me know.
