Reading List & Links

Reading List:

You do not need to read anything before you take an Enlightenment Intensive. You will experientially discover these things for yourself , from yourself. In fact these teachers will make more sense afterwards. All you will need on your Enlightenment Intensive is an open, enquiring mind and a desire to really know what is real.

However we recommend the following short list as extremely helpful in your enquiry and reflection.

These and other books are available at our free introductory talks.

Almost anything by him. He consistently spread the same message for decades. He was pointing to rock bottom truth with no entertainment.
