5.0 out of 5 starsNot a real candle, dude.

The first thing I noticed was the pitiful little votive ion the cover, floating in the beer foam.
Really? It’s not even a real candle. It’s a votive. Those little cheap inserts you pop down into glass holders.
What am I going to learn from a guy who can’t even afford a real candle?
I have been a student of learning for all my adult life. I have been to spiritual retreats, workshops, conferences. I attended a Louise’ Hay (Hands of Light) workshop decades ago. I have been blessed to have sat in a church pew and listened firsthand to spiritual speakers before they were globally famous: Depok Chopra, Gary Zukav, Marianne Williamson, Wayne Dyer. I listened to Mark Victor Hanson and Jack Canfield talk about their upcoming book “Chicken Soup for the Soul” and how excited they were for this project. I even had the ultimate honor of ushering for the Dali Lama on his visit to Ann Arbor, Michigan long ago. I have poured over Eckart Tolle’s “The Power of Now” and “A New Earth”. So, I am not new to the search for self-growth, self-awareness – enlightenment.
But if you are new, then none of the above paragraph means anything to you. And that is fine.
Great really – because that is the beauty and power of this book.
Einstein is attributed with saying, “If you can’t explain it simply, you don’t understand it well enough.” This quote definitely applies to “An Ordinary Dude’s Guide to Enlightenment.” The author ‘gets it’. And because he ‘gets is’, he is able to convey it in a way that helps us ‘get it’ too.
Fun. Entertaining. So, so, helpful.
I believe if you are reading this then there is something in this book for you. Maybe you have wondered about ‘enlightenment’ and what all the fuss is about. Maybe this will be the start of a new journey for you. Maybe it will just answer some nagging questions. Or maybe it will just let you follow along in some of your girlfriend’s conversations. Doesn’t matter which – I am 100% confident reading this book will benefit you in some way.
You don’t have to spend years sitting listening to lectures or reading tomes of books if you don’t want to – you have what you need to get started right here. Just a click away.
That orange box. Buy now.
And, maybe...just maybe...if enough of us buy this book, the author can afford a real candle.
