I have included this quote for a few reasons. Firstly, it reminds us, the process of awakening has been happening for a long time. We are not the first person to go through an awakening. My personal philosophy to awakening research requires the study of a number of wise individuals, those who’s guidance has been handed down for thousands of years. It has stayed relevant because it helps us in any epoch.

I should note. I do not belong to any particular religion, I simply look to various sources who would be considered experts on relevant subjects.

The quote also gives us some of the components we need for enlightenment. The ancient texts discussed on this site are of a distinctly different way of thinking, quite removed from normal western thought. Particularly texts translated from Sanskrit; this can present people with a barrier, how can I understand the points being made in ancient texts? My hope, is, to explain key points in an easy to follow format. Let us use the above quote as an example.
