Recensioner
Easy to read and understandable treatise on Advaita philosophy or non-duality. As the Teacher said, there is nothing new under the sun. But some teachers resonate more with some readers. The final section of this book (available in the later edition and in the Kindle app version) is especially clear.
Most profound spiritual book I've read in my entire life.

I felt that the first half of the book was quite good and gives the reader some interesting points to consider, but then, about half way through the book, he started babbling on that the universe is governed by some divine omnipotent being that knows what its doing -- like WTF!!!
And then the book just goes downhill from there as i will always just switch off once someone starts creating gods to support their spiritual point of view -- and attempting to disguise this god in spiritual mumbo jumbo speak just made it worse for me.
It's like the first half is there to draw you in before springing his divine-being trap upon you, and then spends the last half of the book running around in circles, repeating himself, trying to justify something or other.
Like i say, it was free and you may find something worth while in it, but i certainly wouldn't suggest paying for it and i won't be reading anything else by Nirmala as i don't do god grovelling.… (mer)
