This book is about enlightenment. What is it? How does one “get there”? What do all spiritual masters have in common that allowed them to “achieve realization”? Considering that from one teacher to another they often have opposing views, do they even have anything in common? Which beliefs should be adhered to, which practices adopted? Is there a common thread connecting the teachings of the various spiritual schools? What if an enlightened person does not live near you to help you progress? Well, the 1993 movie Groundhog Day does answer some of the most pressing questions regarding enlightenment, especially the ‘How?’, but we will analyze it in the last part of this book only. In order to understand what’s essential about that movie, we first need to understand spirituality itself.
