LIVING ENLIGHTENMENT Spiritual Life in the 21st Century

Author Cohen expounds before a live audience, outlining his views on enlightenment. The lecture drifts from point to point, never really settling on any one concept long enough to carry the listener along. In what sounds like a Brooklyn accent, Cohen spins through ideas supported mainly by his own approval of them, though he occasionally references traditional spiritual teachings. The main problem is lack of substance--Cohen is known for propounding enlightenment leading to evolution, but he gives the listener little of one so that we may progress in the other. D.J.B.
