Download or read book Essence of Recognition written by Peter Brown and published by . This book was released on 2020-04-19 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a translation and explanation of the Pratyabhijna Hridayam in clear, modern language, that makes this profound work available to modern yogis who are more interested in succeeding at yoga, than struggling with the arcane details of tradition and the philosophy. The Pratyabhijna Hridayam is one of the root texts of Kashmir Shaivism. It gives in very concentrated form a complete description of the situation and path of highest yoga. Many translations of this text are available, but most are primarily concerned with the philosophy and tradition of Kashmir Shaivism, which while interesting is not essential for realization. This book clearly gives the "short path" yoga in its entirety. Peter Brown is a fully realized yogi, who teaches mastery of yoga to advanced students. www.theopendoorway.org

Download or read book The YOGA of RADIANT PRESENCE Revealed In THE GOSPEL OF THOMAS written by Peter Brown and published by . This book was released on 2020-09-16 with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Gospel of Thomas, the apocryphal gospel discovered in a cave with the Nag Hammadi library in Egypt, is thought to be one of the earliest written gospels of Jesus. It has captivated seekers with its very direct and powerful sayings attributed to Jesus, many of which are completely unique to this gospel. In these sayings Jesus teaches his worldview and presents directions for his disciples to enter into it for themselves. He presents this in unelaborated language centered around symbolism that is difficult to understand, without the context that his disciples no doubt received from more personal contact with him. The Yoga of Radiant Presence revealed in the Gospel of Thomas presents a clear and available explanation of the teachings of Jesus from the gospel, revealing the gospel to be a manual of instruction in the path to realizing one's being to be the actual presence of God, the absolute, directly for oneself. Not surprisingly, the teaching of Jesus turns out to be consonant with the highest Yoga teachings of most traditions (e.g. Dzogchen, Kashmir Shaivism, Advaita, Chan, Taoism, etc.), since they all describe this same sole actual condition from their respective cultural viewpoints.Coming to understand what Jesus is referring to in your own experience enables you to know yourself to actually be the 'son of God' within the 'kingdom of heaven'; these notions are not vague idealistic metaphor, but are the literal truth, when rightly understood. Within this book this is made clear and available to the sincere reader.

Download or read book Dirty Enlightenment written by Peter Brown and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2013-06-26 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dirty Enlightenment is a stripped-down, radical presentation of the Nature of Reality and your spiritual place in it. In actuality, you are a miraculously present infinite field of transcendental being presenting itself to itself as subtle radiant energy of pure intelligence. This truth is consonant with the view of Dzogchen, Kashmir Shaivism, Kundalini Yoga, primal Buddhism, and with all radical spiritual traditions. Since this is already and eternally the sole condition, the spiritual challenge is merely to recognize that this is the case. With the simple recognition of the nature of your actual condition, you are freed from the confused implications of any misinterpretations of what your condition is, that you may have been laboring under. The apparent "imperfection" that you may believe your life to be, is in fact already and inherently an entirely transcendental, miraculous eternal perfection, and it can be easy to discover this fact with self-verifying certainty.

It is a practical book especially for those who: - are sincere practitioners, meditators or seekers of the Truth; - wish to put an end to the misery-creator known as ego in this lifetime; - have struggled with their meditation and spiritual endeavors for a long time but have yet to put an end to all dissatisfaction, suffering or incompleteness.

This guide will make it accessible, direct, and practical. You have been searching for something beyond yourself, beyond the mundane life, beyond the plastic flowers of human existence.

Despite many meditations, spiritual practices, pilgrimages, mystical experiences, and so on, you see yourself sidetracking from your spiritual journey, over and over again. It is as if it were stronger than you. It's not your fault though... it's the false self, posing as the real Self that prevents you from reaching the highest potential of human existence. Its name: Ego. By showing you how the ego works behind the scenes, and leads you to live a life of discontentment and incompleteness, you will finally wake up to your true purpose of attaining Freedom, going beyond Kundalini, Kriya Yoga & all Spirituality into awakening Non-Duality. For a long time you've been invested in your current way of living, afraid of climbing the ultimate step into the unknown, bound by the ego's illusions. As long as you keep investing in your current way of living, you will not climb the ultimate step into the unknown. Recognizing the "I-ego," dissolving it and living without it, is truly being enlightened. Are you ready to dive into this unknown? *This book can be read as a standalone, or in conjunction with the previous three books

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A nuanced satire--both hilarious and disconcerting--that probes the blurred lines between empowerment, spirituality, and consumerism in our online lives. Lilian Quick is 40, single, and childless, working as a pet portrait artist. She paints the colored light only she can see, but animal aura portraits are a niche market at best. She's working hard to build her brand on social media and struggling to pay the rent. Her estranged cousin has become internet-famous as "Eleven" Novak, the face of a massive feminine lifestyle empowerment brand, and when Eleven comes to town on tour, the two women reconnect. Despite twenty years of unexplained silence, Eleven offers Lilian a place at The Temple, her Manhattan office. Lilian accepts, moves to New York, and quickly enrolls in The Ascendency, Eleven's signature program: an expensive, three-month training seminar on leadership, spiritual awakening, and marketing. Eleven is going to help her cousin become her best self: confident, affluent, and self-actualized. In just three months, Lilian's life changes drastically: She learns how to break her negative thought patterns, achieves financial solvency, grows an active and engaged online following, and builds authentic friendships. She finally feels seen for who she really is. Success! . . . But can Lilian trust everything Eleven says? This compelling, heartfelt satire asks us: How do we recognize authenticity when storytelling and magic have been co-opted by marketing?
