The Enlightened Idiot by J.J. de Jong (Hardcover)

“I lay down because of a very painful ‘knot’ in my stomach. The pain became so intense that I curled up in a fetal position to endure it. I cried out something like: ‘Holy mother, help me!’ I have no idea where that came from. Suddenly, I ‘stood’ at the beginning of a round tunnel, like the undulating inside of a ringworm. I heard a pulsating hum and saw three scenes in succession. [...] Then I realized that I might be in the ‘tunnel with light at the end,’ an archetypal image for dying! I recoiled from it, because I didn't feel like dying yet.” The memory of this near-death experience prompted the author to undertake self-inquiry . After nearly three years, this led to an unity and enlightenment experience . In this book he describes his challenging and sometimes provocative observations as a self-inquirer and life coach, hoping to offer support to readers interested in personal development .
