Most books on mysticism are written through the author's religious lens and describe the divine only indirectly. Ordinary Enlightenment sees through the lens of everyday life and shows how developing the ability to see with the mystical eye -- to have a direct perception of the divine -- is the key to transforming our lives.This is a mystic's handbook, written from personal experience. It transcends theology and prescribed beliefs and cuts right to direct experience.John C. Robinson treats the mystical experience of God as natural and ordinary. There are no miracles here -- just humans learning to recognize and experience our divine nature.

I found this book to be truly life-changing. The author actually makes the concept of experiencing the Presence of God real, practical, and attainable. One section features a variety of exercises one can use to heighten individual awareness of the present. Although this is an Unity House book, I was impresssed that the author's references are from non-Unity sources except for one quote from Emilie Cady.
