Nothing Personal: Seeing Beyond the Illusion of a Separate Self
Author: Nirmala
Publisher: Endless Satsang Foundation
ISBN: 145230436X
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 272
Book Description
Advaita and nondual teachings are about finding the Truth. This Truth is not a dogma that you study; it is the Truth about life †the Truth about who you really are. This Truth is discovered, not learned. It is discovered through sincerely inquiring, Who am I? What you discover is that who you are has nothing to do with self-images or roles and everything to do with what you experience when you ask this question. What you discover is that who you think of yourself as is just that †a thought! And beyond that thought is a great Mystery †an experience of nothingness, which is your true nature.Nothing Personal leads you to the experience of your true nature and helps you explore its depth. Through exposition, questions and dialogues, it brings you to a place of realization of the Truth: you are that spacious Awareness in which everything appears, including your thoughts and feelings. Your thoughts and feelings do not define you but merely appear within Consciousness along with everything else. This Consciousness is who you are.Nothing Personal offers a gentle and persistent guide to seeing the underlying truth of your ultimate nature. In this concisely edited collection of satsang talks and dialogues, you are invited to honor the limitless love that is your true nature and to enjoy the sweet richness that is revealed when you give this Truth your undivided attention.From the introduction:Unlike most books, this one is not meant to add to your knowledge or understanding. It is about the Truth that cannot be spoken or written. Although the Truth cannot be contained in this or any other book, each word written here is intended to point you toward that Truth. Many of the words and ideas may seem paradoxical or contradictory because what they point to is larger than our conceptual frameworks. Many questions are asked, which are not answered anywhere in the book. Find out what the experience is like to ask yourself these questions, even if they leave you emptier of knowledge and understanding. In this emptying, you just may discover what you are looking for.The Truth is revealed when we allow ourselves to not know, so I invite you to set aside all that you know for the time being and allow yourself to look with innocent eyes at what the words are attempting to unveil. Take the time to experience the unspoken truth in each section before moving on to the next. Resist the temptation to read these words with your mind, which is likely to rush right past the Truth. Allow the words to sink into your heart and reveal the truth of who you are.

Navigating the Collapse of Time
Author: David Cowan
Publisher: Weiser Books
ISBN: 1609253507
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 274
Book Description
The signs are everywhere: Economic crisis, dramatic hurricanes, floods, earthquakes, and increased rates of species extinction. According to New Age metaphysician David Ian Cowan, we are in the midst of a 25-year transitional period of planetary shift as our solar system approaches the Galactic Photon Band, a shift that is also affecting our perception of time. The Mayans had a term for this transitional period: the “Time of No Time,” indicating that, post-2012, time as we know it or experience it may not exist at all or will have changed dramatically. In Navigating the Collapse of Time, Cowan synthesizes a broad range of perspectives about this time of transition, from the writings of the ancient Mayans, Aztecs, and Incas, to speculative theory, quantum physics, philosophy, and the nature of illusion and reality posed by a range of theorists and academics including Ken Carey, Barbara Hand Clow, William Gammill, Zecharia Sitchin, Carl Calleman, Gary Renard, Ken Wapnick, Brent Haskel, and many others. He also lets us know what to expect as events continue to unfold and how to navigate this time of change.

SEEING BEYOND NOTHING
Author: DUANE THE GREAT WRITER
Publisher: Lulu.com
ISBN: 1304174395
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 127
Book Description
As we have all come into a physical body from who knows where... From Beyond Nothing. A study of Human History clearly shows how the documentation the masses look to was contrived by the Political System, who invented the pinnacle of religion for the sole purpose of control from all angles. It is true, there have so many who have had what has been termed as 'spiritual' experiences, which actually have nothing to do with the political formulation of religion. It has been so that the Religious Orders have actually used the experiences of others and claimed them as their own, to then 'sell' to the public 'their' version of what they have decided what took place and how it should be defined according to 'them.' All of this is right in front of everyone, yet most people still look to the Ruling Systems as those to be 'in the know.' I am for the free choice of everyone, and so each person knows their own mind and life and their own free will. www.DuaneTheGreatWriter.Info
