“Enlightenment”

Enlightenment is attained by extremely difficult forgetfulness and supremely easy remembrance.  She must forget the false knowledge that she is a rectangular box of skin and bone, and that she has invented a thing called “mind,” which is nothing more than thoughts, and that she consists in a story called her ego, which is truly a work of fiction, and that she has as her essence emotions as high as the Himalayas and as deep as the Mariana Trench.  And she must remember only one thing: that the frictionless slide into Boundless Joy constitutes return to her One True Home.

Richard Maddox

Richard Dietrich Maddox's writing focuses on the search for permanent happiness, the goal of finding paradise on earth, the attainment of human Enlightenment. His work, though fiction, attempts to convey the profound spiritual Truth passed on to humanity by Enlightened Masters. Maddox approaches spiritual wisdom from a Western level of experience, presenting characters to whom readers can easily relate, offering situations in which readers might well have found themselves. His work offers, in a style which those living in the West will find understandable, the possibility of blissful existence.
