TELL ME WHO YOU ARE

Jake Chapman’s Tell Me Who You Are (self-published, 1989) is a very readable overview of Enlightenment Intensives. Part 1 is semi-fictional first-person view of taking an Intensive. Part 2 is an explanation of the process of seeking, experiencing, communicating and living from enlightenment experiences. The book is out of print but possibly available second-hand.

However, you can access a free PDF copy of Part 1 here.
