The Enlightenment Project: How I Went From Depressed to Blessed, and You Can Too

This book has so very many excellent ideas, stories and directions on how to center yourself and get where you need to go (which is actually nowhere!)! I thoroughly enjoyed all of it, and found several techniques that sang to me in a very profound way. If you are seeking joy, run, don't walk, to buy this book! See you in the light! :)

Jonathan's book has high readability and fascinating stories. Unlike probably a lot of books in your library you won't be putting this book down after the first chapter. The other book reviews are right on in their praise. I would recommend this book for any classes on the Spiritual Journey, Meditation, achieving Fundamental Well Being, Positive Psychology, and writing your spiritual memoir. I'm am wrapping up a "45 day meditation challenge to Awakening" class by Dr Jeffery Martin who wrote the foreword and I found this a great book to supplement that class. Jonathan has a unique background and breadth of experience on his spiritual journey which he articulates with insight, humor and masterful storytelling.

This book is not a whiz-bang thank you ma'am I finished reading it in an afternoon and now am putting it on a books read shelf. This is a book to deliciously savor by sips and nibbles. It's to be taken in slowly. Play with the ideas in your heart and mind. This book is an absolute treasure chest of ideas, personal stories, and making complex ideas easy to understand. Let the exercises and questions wash over you with new ideas and ways of being. It is a must read for anyone looking for enlightenment.

Jonathan is a technique junkie. His Technology of Joy is a delight. This book, The Enlightenment Project is more personal and still chock full of ideas to improve your life. He is also very witty. His delight with trying anything just to see what happens is infectious. No matter where on the 'seeking' spectrum you are there will be something to freshen your outlook.

The book gives precise guidance on the meditative path. The book provides a clear exploration of various meditation techniques. Highly recommended for both beginning and advanced meditators.

I've read quite a few books about the spiritual journey. Many of them were good and contributed to my life in some way and this book is no exception. Throughout the book I found Jonathan's stories of his experience to be real, honest, and authentic. He leaves one with the impression that anyone can realize their true nature with a little bit of time and persistence.

I enjoy Jonathan Robinson's writing very much. I appreciate the clarity and conciseness, and how well he provides interesting and useful information. His latest book, The Enlightenment Project, is excellent. We get the benefit of learning from his extensive explorations of paths to enlightenment/awakening, with practical guidance for our own journeys. There is a lot to like in this inspiring book, including the helpful Questions to Ponder at the end of each chapter. I especially appreciate the author's point that the journey is all about exploring and learning what works for each individual.

The author has road-tested just about every method promising to deliver inner peace out there. He describes each method and his results in short, easy to read chapters. Lots of great ideas in this book and well worth a read! Highly recommended.

Dieses Buch von Jonathan Robinson ist wahrhaftig ein absoluter Schatz für alle, die persönlich oder auch beruflich mit dem Thema Depression vertraut sind und sich für einen spirituellen Weg intereressiern, der zur Transformation/Heilung dieses Themas führen kann. Jonathan hat für sich den Weg zu tiefem Frieden, Freude und Liebe in seinem Leben gefunden und als Therapeut vielen Menschen dazu verholfen, dass Gleiche in ihrem Leben zu finden. In dem Buch teilt er seine Erfahrungen aus seinem eigenen Leben, als auch beruflichen Erfahren, die einen tiefen Einblick in die spirituelle Welt der Erleuchtung mit all ihren Etappen vermitteln. Das Buch ist absolut unterhaltsam und mit Humor geschrieben und hat gleichzeit eine große Tiefe, die die Erfahrungen des spirituellen Weges mit sich bringen. Besonders interessant und hilfreich ist für mich , dass Jonathan zu jedem Thema auch einen praktischen Weg mit Übungen vermittelt, um direkte Erfahrungen machen zu können. Ich habe schon sehr viele Bücher zu beiden Themen gelesen, aber Jonathan übertrifft alle. Ich bin zutiest danbar für dieses großartige Werk und kann es nur jedem ans Herz legen, der wahre Transformation und die wunderbare Essenz in seinem Inneren finden möchte, die wir alle in Wahrheit sind!

This book is an easy read with pointed questions to provide guidance. At times funny, but all the while letting the reader know what lessons can be learned through life's experiences. Each chapter begins with a poignant quote and ends with questions to ponder. Jonathan pulls together a variety of methods from various sources, so that one can try them out on the path to awakening.

Fun to read.
