I believe this is the most important book that I have ever read. Mr. Kelly has distilled and simplified the process of "enlightenment" into a set of exercises that will really allow you to directly experience the shift from ego based consciousness to a state of pure awareness. I have spent my whole life seeking a change in consciousness and to be honest I did not have the discipline to "follow" a spiritual tradition. I am so relieved to know that this does not have to be the case. I always suspected it could be simpler.

On the first day of starting to read the book and do the exercises, I experienced a strong shift. I have suffered from severe depression throughout my life so the shift was a definite and welcome contrast. I suggest you go to Youtube to utilize Loch's videos for the written exercises. He is not teaching theory here, this is experiential.

These techniques could change the world and could be taught to almost anyone. I want to say, thank you, Loch Kelly, your efforts have made a huge difference in my life.

I loved this book. I tried the exercises and they had profound effect on me straight away. So simple yet so profound and deep but alive .

This book changed my life!!!!!!!!

In this wonderful book, Loch Kelly does a masterful job of presenting ancient teachings in an accessible modern western vernacular, intertwining them with current psychology and the latest scientific learnings, along with proving practical guided practices to enable the reader to find out in their own experience what freedom and awakening is - which is the most important thing. I also just attended a workshop with Loch at NYI and he is a very gifted teacher. Highly recommended! Namaste!

It always makes me sad when a meditation teacher tells his students that everybody can skip the first 10 or so stages of meditative development and go straight to the highest stages... What a terrible misconception of your "quick-fix times!"
