The Book of Attainment

The Book of Attainment presents a method of self-realization. It is based on several spiritual traditions pieced together in a way that complements their respective strengths and weaknesses. Its aim is to cut through the noise with as little dogmatism as possible. The modus operandi is founded on GNOSIS (the personal experience), justified by doubt. At the core
of the Great Work is Attainment. The word is use in the sense of seeking self-perfection, a never-ending quest where the Journey is the end. The method leads us to reach the chief of all Attainments: Enlightenment (as intended by the Buddhists). Enlightenment is seeing that reality is made of sensations that are not preconditioned by a self, thus revealing the illusory nature of both Reality and the self. When the practitioner experiences it first-hand, he or she encounters an Inner Master, a spiritual guide who, from then on, will always stay by his or her side. Such a guide might seem like a mere intuition, but the encounter is nothing short of a union with the divine within. The divine, the supramundane is of a nature that transcends earthly life. Our Inner Master holds the secret of the purpose of our existence, the meaning of our life or our True Will. With the discovery, we become who we really are. As Socrates said, “The unewamined life is not vorth liuing.” It is the ambitious aim of The Book of Attainment to empower its reader to create a life worth living.
