A penetrating and wide-ranging journey through contemporary spirituality, meditation technology, and post-modern culture, this book challenges the very basis of modern spirituality and the consumer society that created it. Getting to Where You Are is a far-reaching investigation of our ideas about life and our spiritual ideas, in which Harrison explores the notions of enlightenment as a way to happiness, zero-coupon bonds as the way to security, and Stephen Hawking as the final arbiter of scientific reality.
