------NEW REVISED EDITION AVAILABLE NOW------In almost all of the major religions, there is a person who came to some amazing realizations about their place in the universe. It usually followed some time alone in deep introspection and resulted in a message that they wanted to share with the world. It is highly improbable to believe that all of the beautiful sentiments found in the many religious/spiritual texts came from knowingly disingenuous sources. Clearly, those who were writing about the mystical/spiritual experiences that they felt firsthand and through which insights like "Do unto others as you would have done to yourself" came from experienced SOMETHING. Thousands of years worth of material has been written by many sources, many voices, and they have all been very similar: from Christianity's "Love thy neighbor as thyself" to Buddhism's "One who, while himself seeking happiness, oppresses with violence other beings who also desire happiness, will not attain happiness hereafter" or Hinduism's "One should never do that to another which one regards as injurious to one's own self. This, in brief, is the rule of dharma. Other behavior is due to selfish desires" In those beautiful sentiments, we hear echoes of the same message, a message of unity with others, with the world, and the universe at large. And for those many thousands of years, the people who were the sources of these words had only the use of poetic metaphorical language to discuss their shifts of perception. And now, through Neuroscience, we have a clearer view of what it was they were pointing to with these beautiful sentiments.

*******New Revised Edition Available*******Have you? The title of this book is a genuine question. It's not meant to be sarcastic. It's not meant to be judgmental or superior. It is a REAL and important question. Have you suffered enough? Because without the motivation of suffering people will continue with their current plans, plots, schemes, beliefs, ideas, and stories. What else do they know? Many people wish there was no suffering. Can you imagine? Everyone going about their lives and doing whatever comes into their thoughts no matter how destructive or harmful it is to themselves or others or the environment in which they live. Nothing in their brains that says "Whoa!! STOP!! Let's look at this!!"Suffering is that nudge from the universe, from God if you prefer, that says "get out of your mind and take a look please."Suffering is a gift - one that many don't appreciate enough. It is a gift from the universe that a navigational course change is necessary.People resist their suffering out of fear of change. They would rather suffer than fear. It is ironic that what they fear is suffering, but until they see that they will stay with the suffering they "know" - that they are "used to." Suffering that they have invented survival strategies (in childhood) to deal with - suffering that they have built an entire identity around. But, when we suffer enough - when we run out of "plans, plots, schemes, stories, ideas, and beliefs" - something amazing happens. The Goddess reveals that she has been holding us gently the entire time saying "Shh, there-there love, you're okay..." And we open our eyes. Look about the room. And sure enough, we are. We are safe.But, until we suffer enough, we can't look outside of our minds to see that simple truth.So have you suffered enough? This book is a guide to the exit.
