What does it mean to be enlightened or spiritually awakened? In The Leap, Steve Taylor shows that this state is much more common than is generally believed. He shows that ordinary people—from all walks of life—can and do regularly "wake up" to a more intense reality, even if they know nothing about spiritual practices and paths.
