The secret to enlightenment is a whole lot simpler than you think. Forget the chanting, meditating and expensive visits to ashrams and get back to basics.
The need to find purpose and meaning in the world has become more important to many people in the 21st century, especially with our 24/7 access to information. But just because you can now seek out the most expensive meditation retreats around the world via the Internet doesn't mean you should. Would it surprise you to learn that everything you need to know to be at peace with yourself can be found without ever having to venture out of your front door?
Welcome to the no BS approach to enlightenment
Meet Joey Lott and Fish (yes, that's his name). They're down to earth, back-to-basics guys (Fish is an ex-navy diver), and they are tired of the airy-fairy, flowery approach to enlightenment. Rather, they eschew terms like "spirituality" and are willing to speak simply, directly, and as Lott notes, "crudely" - hence the title of this book.
By stripping away the artifice that surrounds people's attempts to understand themselves and their place in the universe, these guys offer up their straight to the point approach on attaining enlightenment and understanding by revealing that freedom's just another word for how to be at peace with who you really are.
Frank dialogue as a gateway to understanding. When was the last time you said what you really meant, censorship be damned?
Lott and Fish aren't afraid to dig deep. Fish will walk you through his own personal story, sharing everything from his military training to his struggles with alcoholism. And there's no preaching here. Because unlike other spiritual self-help tomes, Lott and Fish's book is comprised of direct transcripts of actual conversations between the two of them - warts and all. Their exchanges are stark, unvarnished, and uncensored.
So if you want to follow a path to understanding your place in the world that doesn't involve subscribing to a specific teacher, guru, or path and doesn't ask you to bend yourself into a pretzel - literally or figuratively - then read Lott and Fish's book and take the road less censored by.
