How do we awaken or become enlightened and escape suffering
Is anyone else tired of being limited, bound to a body? Is anyone else tired of that empty feeling which nothing in the whole universe can ever fill? Is anyone else tired of being subject to the dual and polar ends of happiness and sorrow? What is the answer?

I know this is all plenum void potentiality, that all potentiality is illusion and plenum void alone exists.

Thread: Meditation: Universally accepted as something Great: Doctors, Jesus, Ghandi, Buddha, AMA
Thread: I'm enlightened. This might be your only chance to speak to a living enlightened buddha!
Thread: The Four Noble Truths - To Live is to Suffer



I have read the Vasistha's Yoga
I have read the Bhagavad Gita by Paramahansa Yogananda
I have read the Lens of Perception: a user guide to higher consciousness
I have read "What is Zen?" by Alan Watts

All lucid books, choose one if it interests you.

If you want a direct path to the source, Jnana Yoga and the 4 Noble Truths are an exemplary combo. Below are two links, one for Jnana Yoga and the 4 Noble Truths/Eightfold Path.

Being enlightened is struggling against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.
