The Inner Reality
Author: Paul Brunton
Publisher: North Atlantic Books
ISBN: 1623170168
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 257
Book Description
When actor Christopher Reeve was asked in a BBC interview which book he would want if stranded on a desert island, he replied, "The Inner Reality by the philosopher Paul Brunton." A provocative and compelling work, The Inner Reality is an essential guide for spiritual seekers. First published in the 1930s, this remarkable book interweaves the teachings of two great religious figures: Jesus and Krishna. Identifying a common current running through both Christianity and Hinduism, Paul Brunton argues that an "inner reality" or "kingdom of heaven" can be found within each of us. Defining religion as simply the practice of binding oneself with divinity, he encourages readers to embark on the quest for self-knowledge and spiritual communion through a commitment to the contemplative path. With his profound interpretations of the world's sacred texts, from the Gospel of St. John to the Bhagavad Gita, Brunton bridges East and West to guide the reader into the living heart of these ancient traditions. This new edition has been updated to incorporate the author's final revisions and includes a foreword by the Paul Brunton Philosophic Foundation.

Creative vision and inner reality : easing the beginner's way : the essential points of creation and completion

ISBN: 9788878341241
Category : Buddhism
Languages : en
Pages : 132
Book Description
CREATIVE VISION and INNER REALITY is a translation of "Easing the Beginner's Way: the Essential Points of Creation and Completion," written in verse at the age of twenty-seven by the amazing nineteenth century realized master and profound scholar Jamgon Kongtrul Lodro Thaye. Born in 1813 in Kham in eastern Tibet, Kongtrul offered this advice based on his own experiential understanding of these two basic methods in Tibetan Buddhist tantric meditation. The aspiring practitioner's way is eased by clear and extremely practical explanations of firstly, the phase of "creation," referring to the gradual imaginative process of recreating, with the aid of mantra and mudra, one's self as the deity and the environment as the mandala, while maintaining the awareness of the lack of real existence of these and all appearances; and secondly, the phase of "completion," referring to the dissolution of the visualization until the mind rests in its natural condition, the inseparability of bliss and emptiness, a state accomplished by, among other methods, concentration on one's so-called vajra body and its channels, winds, and vital essences. Thus, in the first phase of this aspect of Vajrayana teaching the goal is imagined, and in the second it is directly experienced. In reality those who have some familiarity with Mahamudra and Dzogchen, the two systems that represent the ultimate sense and final goal of all teachings, will find in the text a subtle guide to deeper knowledge. This volume contains a second text, Jamgon Kongtrul's "Advice to Lhawang Trashi," in which the neophyte meditator is instructed in an inspiring and direct manner on how to recognize the landmarks and pitfalls that may be encountered along the path. An Introduction and substantive notes by the translator are included in this useful and beautiful book. The translator Elio Guarisco is a founding member of the International Shang Shung Institute of Tibetan Studies whose goal is to preserve and deepen the knowledge and understanding of Tibetan cultural traditions and has translated many works by the Institute's founder, guide, and inspiration, Chogyal Namkhai Norbu.
