5.0 out of 5 stars The begining of a wonderful trilogy, March 29, 2000

By

This review is from: Seeds of Consciousness: The Wisdom of Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj (Paperback)

This book comes as the first of three books edited by Jean Dunn. The next are two books, Prior to Consciousness, and Consciousness and the Absolute. All three books are set up as interviews between seekers from all over the world asking questions to Nisargadatta about issues relating to the nature of being. In Nisargadatta's clear and simple language he strips away all false notions and lays before the questioner the Real, ever present, and without attribute, nature of the Self. It is a rare experience to read the conversations of a fully awakened individual, and soak up the wisdom that is present on every page and imbued in every sentence. A finer book on the simple truth that every one IS, that which they are seeking is extremely hard to come by. His words are tremendously powerful, You Are the Absolute, beyond time and space and without attributes. The wisdom within this book will plant a seed that will sprout and bring with it the nature of what you are, beyond all notions or conception.

The wisdom of this teacher comes from Being in That space, not from books, not from learning, not from hearsay. As a result, this collection of "answers" can pierce us as no other. It takes us right to That Place. So much so, that I dare you to try to read more than 4 pages at one sitting. If you want to get tossed into your soul, read this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Wisdom of Nisagadatta, November 29, 2006

Nisargadatta is for me one of the extremely, extremely rare voices that was able to speak directly to the heart of the mystery of the Self. What can I really say, except those who are able to find value and meaning from his words will know that they have found the key that unlocks the mystery of life.
