10 years after my Spiritual Awakening and after writing over 90 books on Life, Happpiness, God and Enlightenment, I realized that a spiritual seeker cannot be Enlightened in one ‘Aha’ moment. The spiritual journey is much more than that. It is a 3-step metamorphosis, a transformation that needs one to evolve, first from Awakening – getting that ‘Aha’ of ‘Who am I?’ and then living the Spiritual Awakening and being Enlightened; thereafter, being Liberated from this world of pleasure, people and possessions and being in a state of Eternal Happpiness, free from all misery, all suffering. I have written several books on Enlightenment, right from a book on my Talaash, my Quest. I have written about how we must exit the highway of achievement, transcend fulfillment and reach Enlightenment. Enlightenment is the journey of transcending all Karma and going through the process of Self-Realization to reach God-Realization. But how is all this possible? All this can only happen if we go through that process of Purification and Illumination to 4 Preface get the basic Realization of ‘Who am I?’ and ‘Why am I here?’ We must answer these two questions. While they seem simple, they are the most difficult Realizations of life. If we must attain this, we must do it in 3 steps. If we want to climb a six-foot-high rock, it is not easy to do it in one step. But if we climb two feet at a time, it is possible. So it is with Enlightenment. If we divide the spiritual journey into 3 steps, we can reach our ultimate destination. First, we must be Awakened with the Realization of the Truth. Second, we must be Enlightened as we live the Realizations. And finally, we should go beyond who we are not. We must be Liberated and united with the Divine. The Realizations are simple. But as long as we live as the Mind and Ego, ME, we can never be truly free to be our true self. The body will die, and we will return to earth in a rebirth as we suffer and cry because we do not discover, ‘Who am I?’ This book can be the key to your spiritual journey. It can help seekers attain God, step-by-step. It is easy but needs sincere commitment and effort. It needs the guidance of a Guru, an Enlightened Master. But surely, if one follows this as an Enlightenment manual, one will achieve the ultimate goal of Liberation. What is unique in this book is the 3-Step method. Don’t try to be Enlightened in one flash. Enlightenment is a journey of Awakening that needs Realization, first. Thereafter, we must put these Realizations into action, making it our mission. If there is enough passion, ultimately, there will be Liberation from all ignorance and Unification with the Divine. We will be free from all misery on earth and the cycle of death and rebirth. We will achieve our ultimate goal as we live as the Divine Soul. Where are you on the spiritual journey? Are you fully Awakened? Are you Enlightened? When will you be Liberated?
