Synopsis

Is enlightenment a destination? Or, is it a process. If it is a process, it can be thought of as a means for diminishing suffering. If it is a process, it can be the use of reason to release us from the shackles of myth and superstition. If it is a process, it is available… to everyone. Twenty-five years ago, Dr. Scott Elrod turned aside encouragement that he begin an academic career in psychiatry and began his practice in rural Montana. Since then, like the proverbial shaman of our ancient imagining, he has lived on the side of a mountain; with the wilderness behind him and a view of the people he serves below him. His passion has been to draw, from the lessons of science, nature and philosophy, more and more effective ways of communicating the complex language of change.This work is the product of that effort. It uniquely weaves together both meanings of enlightenment. Upon a foundation of reason, it establishes an uncanny understanding of transformation. You will find that Dr. Elrod is both fearless and compassionate. He pulls no punches, yet throws very few. His approach is remarkably accessible, provocative and entertaining. It could help you discover a better version of yourself. It might even blow your mind.
