Riassunto

$10.95 cloth hardcover 1-58685-190-X < BR>5 x 7 in, 112 pp, Rights: W, Self-Help < BR>Originally published by the author in 1972, the underground classic Lazy Man's Guide to Enlightenment teaches how to improve the quality of life, to feel good, and to determine what's real. Golas leads the reader down the path toward enlightenment with simple steps, like memorizing key phrases and incorporating them into daily life and thought. Think of how much better your life might be if you reminded yourself to "love as much as you can from wherever you are" or "love it the way it is." This classic book is full of useful tips on how to live a more conscious life and to be an engaged and aware member of the universal community. < BR>"While we have humility and pride enough to act on the knowledge that we exist in an infinite harmony, that we are neither greater nor lesser than any others, we can enjoy exquisite spiritual wealth and pleasures. When you love yourself, you are in truth expanding in love into many other things. And the more loving you are, the more loving the beings within and around you. On all levels we are mutually dependent vibrations. Play a happy tune and happy dancers will join your trip." < BR> - From The Lazy Man's Guide to Enlightenment< BR> After serving in World War II, author Thaddeus Golas graduated from Columbia College in New York. He later moved to San Francisco, where he became involved in the activism and spiritual quests of the 1960s. He was an editor of Redbook magazine and a book representative for publisher Harper and Row.< BR>

Su questo libro

Dalla quarta di copertina

You don't have to work hard or suffer to be in paradise
"I am a lazy man. Laziness keeps me from believing that enlightenment demands effort, discipline, strict diet, non-smoking, and other evidences of virture. There is a paradise in and around you right now, and to be there you don't even have to make a move. All potential experiences are within you already. You can open up to them at any time. There is an odd chance that this is what someone needs to read in order to feel better about himself. If you are a kind person and want to know what ot expect when elightenment strikes and why it comes to you, this is for you."
"It's all right to have a good time. That's one of the most important messages from enlightenment."
--From The Lazy Man's Guide to Enlightenment

Dal risvolto di copertina interno

"We are equal beings and the universe is our relations with each other. The universe is made of one kind of entity: each one is alive, each determines the course of his own existence."That is really all you need to know to understand this book or to write your own. Everything that I say has it's roots in that first paragraph, and it's possible to resolve any question by going back to it and thinking it through for yourself."These words of Thaddeus Golas's, written back in 1971, still ring true, will always ring true. Now, The Lazy Man's Guide to Enlightenment come to us in an attractive hardcover edition, including an author's introduction and author photographs. In the introduction, Golas reveals the events in his life leading up to the writing of the book and the response to the Guide during its many years in print. It is a book for equal beings from all backgrounds."The concept that we live in a universe of equal beings can make sense of all religions, and can contain all metaphysical attitudes. It is ithe easiest raft to discard when we reach the other shore that is no shore. It can tell us how to live on this plane; it can show how our physical existence is the expression of spiritual laws. It gives us an absolutely confident understanding of what is true and what is real."Equal and unique live beings are all that is fully true and real in the universe. We are the universe."
