No lineage. No organization. No promises of bliss. Just the patient examination that every contemplative tradition, from the Stoics to Zen, has pointed at in its own words.For readers of Adyashanti and Alan Watts: enlightenment without the guru.Read the series in order, or start anywhere. The Journey of Self Discovery came before; The Dream of Life completes it.
