The Enlightenment Index : A Seeker's Self-Reflection Toolkit

The Enlightenment Index is a practical and poetic guide for spiritual seekers who yearn to measure, deepen, and live their journey toward Self-realization. Written by Alakh, a devoted disciple of AiR (Atman in Ravi), this toolkit blends timeless wisdom with modern reflection practices to help readers awaken to their true nature. What the book offers: - A clear roadmap from ignorance to liberation, rooted in the teachings: Neti Neti (Not this, Not this) and Tat Twam Asi (That Thou Art). - Structured self-assessments across seven dimensions of spiritual growth—awareness, detachment, inner peace, compassion, surrender, divine connection, and freedom from fear. - Reflection exercises, scoring systems, and daily practices to track progress and overcome obstacles like the "rascal M.I.N.D." and the "seven monsters of the ego." - Practical tools to cultivate meditation, contemplation, and selfless service, while living in surrender and trust. Why it matters: This book is not meant to be read once and set aside—it is a living companion. Seekers can return to it again and again to reflect, recalibrate, and realign with the Truth: We are not the body, not the mind—we are the Soul, one with the Supreme. Ideal for: - Spiritual seekers at any stage of awakening - Readers drawn to self-reflection, meditation, and practical spirituality - Those who wish to integrate ancient wisdom into daily life with clarity and compassion With humility and devotion, Alakh offers this toolkit as a mirror and compass—guiding seekers from confusion to clarity, from ego to surrender, and ultimately to the bliss of enlightenment.
