The Swiftest Path to Enlightenment

A man asks what facilitates a swift journey to enlightenment and whether there are practices that accelerate the process. Rupert responds that the best recommendation is ‘hanging out with this community,’ suggesting this is both the swiftest and most enjoyable way to discover one’s true nature. When pressed on how long enlightenment might take, Rupert humorously but compassionately gives the man ‘until the end of the week,’ noting this is a concession he wouldn’t offer most people. Another participant interjects to affirm the power of the community, noting that when Rupert was absent due to illness, the gathering continued seamlessly – a fact Rupert considers the highest compliment to his teaching approach.
