TABLE OF CONTENTS
Prior written works plus recorded lectures have provided an organized body of information and verifiable data that have occasioned numerous study groups worldwide and translation of the works into the worlds major languages. Consciousness research has resulted in the widespread dissemination of essential information not previously available to mankind.
While the primary thrust of consciousness research was to facilitate spiritual awareness and identify verifiable truth, it was also educative to apply the same techniques to elucidate the evolution of consciousness and its expressions over time as various facets of civilization and history, as reported in Truth vs. Falsehood. These included a study of the worlds great religions and the verification of teachers and teachings of spiritual truth over the ages, which are of great pragmatic value to the spiritual seeker.
The totality of the foregoing results in a distillation of critical premises that constitute the essentials which need to be known in order to facilitate the evolution of spiritual consciousness in the individual seeker. This is especially so for the serious devotee of spiritual truth as the pathway to Enlightenment. The way is both confirmable and subjectively experiential. Thus, the pathway of Devotional Nonduality is a direct course to Enlightenment via clarification of core essentials that merely await activation by decision, intention, and dedication of the will.
While revered literature and scripture by teachers of spiritual truth and enlightenment are available worldwide, their historic works were not written, verbalized, or contextualized for ready comprehension by the modern person who is now more formally educated. The current human mind is often put off by seemingly extraneous teachings that are intertwined with traditional religions, such as unfamiliar languaging or ecclesiastical doctrine that incorporates primarily ethnic observances of time and location. By over-inclusion, the extraneous becomes confused with the essential, thereby decreasing appeal as well as credibility and clarity.
For truth to be true, it must be so throughout time, which means, therefore, that it must be verifiable and confirmable in the present day as well. The Realization of Truth is thus not only a radical, experiential, subjective state but also a condition that is confirmable by the methodology of consciousness research. Thus, the Reality of a spiritual state is verifiable both from within (experiential subjectivity) and from without (confirmable objectivity), i.e., validated by Descartes res interna (cogitans) as well as res extensa (the world as it is). Therefore, in order to serve the objective requirements, included are the calibrated levels of all chapters, the work as a whole, and important statements. In addition, in Appendix C there is a description of the simple technique whereby any integrous person can independently confirm the level of truth of any statement or principle, the validity of which does not depend on a specific teaching or belief system.
The discovery of the method of how to tell truth from falsehood, and also how to calibrate the verifiable degree of levels of truth, opened up for examination and redefinition the entire human experience over vast periods of time in all of its cultures and expressions. As in the discovery of the compass, telescope, or computer, the new information recontextualizes common human beliefs and experiences and examines them from a higher perspective and clarity of definition.
Like prior advances of knowledge, new discoveries result in a mixed response of excitement and pleasure from the more adventurous to argument and resistance from the pessimist or skeptic. Thus, while part of the mind is stimulated and uplifted by new discovery, another part longs to cling to the familiar, even if it is flawed or grossly incorrect.
New discovery brings challenge as well as promise, and actual value is derived from practice, application, and experience over time. Of value in the advances in the understanding of consciousness are redefinition, clarification, and recontextualization that reveal new meanings and comprehension at greater depth.
What follows is a distillation of pragmatic applications of confirmable truth for seriously committed spiritual endeavor, and to that end is this work dedicated. GloriainExcelsis Deo!

The straightest way to spiritual evolution and advanced states of consciousness is via the field of consciousness itself, which is the nonlinear Radiance of Divine Energy that is the substrate of all that exists. The condition of Enlightenment is the state of pure Radiance that shines forth as the Presence/Self. The Self is the essence of spiritual existence and Reality as subjectively Known by virtue of effulgent Identity.
