The Supreme Awakening: Experiences of Enlightenment Throughout Time - And How You Can Cultivate Them

"No matter what your religion is — no matter what nationality — no matter what walk of life — if you are a human being, get this book — read it — get inspired by it — and act upon it — right away!" — David Lynch, filmmaker, television director, artist, and author Throughout history, great men and women have described exalted experiences of extraordinary wakefulness, freedom, and bliss — as different from our ordinary waking experience as waking is from dreaming. Laozi, Plato, Rūmī, St. Teresa of Avila, Emerson, Emily Dickinson, Black Elk, Einstein — people of all times and places have described experiences that rank among the most inspiring in all of literature. The Supreme Awakening offers a large, rich, and diverse collection of these experiences — and explains them in terms of a new and expanded framework of human development: the model of seven states of consciousness developed by Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, the Vedic sage and scientist of consciousness. The book also shows how anyone can systematically cultivate these advanced experiences — simply, naturally, and effortlessly — through Transcendental Meditation practice. It describes the many scientifically validated benefits that result from the practice: inner peace and happiness, improved health, increased creativity and intelligence, improved relationships, increased productivity, and more, with documented benefits for education, business, health care, the military, rehabilitation, and society as a whole. Most importantly, The Supreme Awakening shows that the sublime experiences reported by great people across time are real, universal, understandable in terms of modern science, and now available to anyone.
