The Divine Within : Selected Writings on Enlightenment

The Divine Within
Author(s): Aldous Huxley, Huston Smith

“A genius . . . a writer who spent his life decrying the onward march of the Machine.” — The New Yorker

Brave New World author Aldous Huxley on enlightenment and the "ultimate reality."

In this anthology of twenty-six essays and other writings, Aldous Huxley discusses the nature of God, enlightenment, being, good and evil, religion, eternity, and the divine. Huxley consistently examined the spiritual basis of both the individual and human society, always seeking to reach an authentic and clearly defined experience of the divine. Featuring an introduction by renowned religious scholar Huston Smith, this celebration of "ultimate reality" proves relevant and prophetic in addressing the spiritual hunger so many feel today.

Review(s):
“That Aldous Huxley knew the reality of God is beautifully expressed in these essays.
“Altogether excellent. ... The Divine Within is an illuminating read in its totality, exploring such subjects as time, religion, distraction, death, and the nature of reality.
