Awakening to Reality
===

This would be the one-page version of the guide. It has the benefit of being easily searchable, and still has a TOC on the left.

Linking to headings within the document is a bit tricky. If the headings have long names, then the links become long (e.g., `#Stage-7-Presence-is-Spontaneously-Perfected`) and brittle: if you change the heading name, you have to change all links to it manually. There are a couple of workarounds:

1. Give headings short names and never change them. E.g., just "Stage 7" (and make its full name a subheading, like I've done in this document, except for Stage 1). This is only feasible for headings that will really almost never change, like the stages (and perhaps some of the appendices).
2. Don't link to things whose names might change or are easily searchable. Just refer to them by name. E.g., "See the section 'Vipassana'." or "See Stage 7." The reader can use their browser's search functionality and look for matches in the left pane.
