Reading

March 21, 2017 in Patrons

I enjoy to share my favourite books with you. 

From time to time.

This one is the Ashtavakra Gita. 

It's not Zen. 

Yet it is…

“Awareness is Everything.” 
— Ashtavakra Gita

It's an ancient Advaita (nondual) text, pointing us to the same place.

You can view a range of editions here. But this edition is my favourite book of the Ashtavakra, it has a beautiful commentary. This one  goes everywhere with me on my Kindle. This third one  has another interesting commentary.

It's a simple book. 

A pure, direct teaching, a pointing to who you are.

Go look.

Ultimately you don't need the book. 

I will show you that here.

But for now it's good to have some inspiration, to turn within.

Find a book, sit a while.

Or leave your books, and sit a while.

 

 


Footnote: From time to time, I will share quotes and verses from the Ashtavakra Gita, and other books I enjoy reading.
