Santa Barbara, CA, March 16, 2013 (PressReleasePoint) -- Robert Welton’s new book, Be Your Own Light, collects the clues and secrets to being your own light from enlightened masters, mystics, prophets, poets, philosophers, sages, scientists and seekers, past and present. The same light shines through different prisms throughout history. Many of the quotations and commentary will not be found in other books of a similar genre. They are derived from ancient manuscripts, sacred scriptures, and rare books accumulated over decades of enlightenment research and study. They reflect the lessons of life, love, happiness, religion, and other gateways to understanding the reality and meaning of our common pilgrimage through life.

Many people have experienced enlightenment, a sudden illumination that reveals a larger reality. It is an awakening to the awareness that everything is connected. It may come by meditation, music, sport, sex, gardening, touching a wild animal, or in near death experiences. Any moment will do, because it is always there, waiting for consciousness to unfold.

Each of the fourteen chapters begins with an illustration and introduction that summarizes revelations from enlightened masters, scripture, history, myth, and the author’s own mystical experience. Each page and sequence of quotations are arranged to expand and contrast different perspectives. Each source is also prefaced with biographical data, with the more remarkable people introduced with a story about their encounter with the light.

These words of wisdom are stepping stones to different points of view, extending the reader’s vision with the benefit of insight, hindsight and foresight. They enable the reader to see beyond the limits of their own mind, revealing new answers and new directions. Everyone has their own itinerary in life, but words that resonate with truth, illuminate the right path. The book is available on Amazon, Kindle and Nook.
