Summary: concise attempt to show our wrong personal identification
Comment: This is a concise attempt to point to our wrong personal identification with this body-mind as a limited 'I', though infact this 'I' is 'infinite'.
This book is only apparently simple. Though it is titled "Enlightenment for Beginners", I do not know if a real beginner will get its message. Probably, one who is already into this 'enlightenment' stuff, will find this a refresher course about the core principles of this 'enlightenment' game.
The following three sentences in the one and only one essay in the book, on 'Reality' summarise the findings and approach to realization.
"In order to be able to interact dramatically with these so-called "others", you have to first experience yourself as a disconnected ego. In short, you have to pretend to be playing out a role in this drama as a separate individual. In other words ... you have to be a "Person"!
However, just like in the movie, the actial reality that underlies your "role-in-the-world" might also be like a kind of unbroken and seamless "screen", too. In truth, this very "Screen" that is supporting the dramatization of your individual "movie role" may actually be, deep down, WHO you really are! It may infact, be your very own true nature !
. . . . .
Infact, the oldest eastern religions have long recognized this Great Illusion as "lila" . . . the "divine dance". By completely giving up his attachment to the role that he is playing in his life, the Seeker becomes awakened to the pure consciousness that he really always was all along. In a sense, he "becomes" the Screen itself by discovering that he alreadu is who he has been looking for ! "
A few other important ideas are suggested to tell that the view of individuality is imagined.
Well, this carton style presentation in the book and its message should make an interesting reading/browsing. While it might make a helpful reading, I am sure , it is not a serious companion for the entire journey of 'quest for knowledge' of one's own self.
The book is over priced for what it can deliver. One should save money by borrowing the book than to buy it.

Summary: simple and true
Comment: A lot of readers today are confused about enlightenment. Liberation has nothing to do with a person, and even less with perfection or holiness (as is suggested in a lot of books from the East). Chuck is one of those authors who is clear about it. Highly recommanded.
Jan Kersschot, author of "Nobody Home"
