Dr Robert Forman - 'Enlightenment Ain't What It's Cracked Up to Be' - Interview by Iain McNay

Author of several books including 'Enlightenment Ain't What It's
Cracked Up to Be' and Director of 'The Forge Institute for
Spirituality and Social Change', Dr Forman talks about his
spiritual search and how the 'pot of gold' he longed for was not
what it was cracked up to be. But in time he realised that it was
of a kind and nature, wholly different than anything he could have
known, or wished for. He also discovered that transformation at
that level comes by grace and not by self-adjustment. He says: 'It
is time we stopped mistaking the content for the awareness that
beholds it. Vastness issues a challenge: tell the truth so
completely that there is nothing left to be afraid of.'
