Book Description

May 1, 2008 Sounds True Audio Learning Course
For those serious about enlightenment, author and teacher Adyashanti has some advice: better know what you¿re getting into. Because with spiritual awakening, you find that the strongly held beliefs and perceptions you¿ve taken to be ¿you¿ and ¿your world¿ vanish into the unmanifest nature of all that is. The End of Your World presents a landmark six-CD course on the reality of enlightenment and the total ¿re-wiring¿ of your being that accompanies it¿what Adyashanti calls ¿our journey into the infinite, our true nature as pure consciousness itself.¿

On Life After Awakening February 27, 2009
Format:Hardcover
First, I want to acknowledge Tami Simon for the outstanding service she has provided spiritual seekers for over two decades through her amazing company, Sounds True. Tami had the wisdom-eye to spot Adyashanti's spiritual genius relatively early on in his teaching career and has made his teachings available to the general public through Sounds True.

This book (or cd), "The End of Your World," is once again a creation of Tami's wisdom/compassion. She saw the vital need for clear spiritual guidance not only into awakening, but through it and beyond. She asked Adya to respond to this need and the result is this essential book.

The great awakening traditions have their own ways of dealing with life after awakening. Unfortunately, their methods too often require the assumption of cultural affectations and reprogramming into a particular stance or relationship with reality. How is it that someone who claims to have awakened continues to identify with being a yogi, sufi, zen buddhist, taoist or christian- all human created over-lays of reality? Our spiritual/religious identity is part of what is awakened out of. Hence, the end of your world. You don't even get to keep your spiritual delusional system, as nice as it may be!

Adya points to total freedom from self and its multitude of identities, including the spiritual ones. No abidance anywhere.

This is an essential guide book for anyone experiencing true awakening. It isn't a program or even a map, just a gentle reminder that everything that happens is only an expression of absolute freedom. So relax. What's the worst that can happen? The end of your world.

Great company December 27, 2008
Format:Audio CD
Feeling kind of alone with my experiences on the awakening path, Adyashanti is a great understanding company for me and i only can recommend his Audio CD's, describing all traps i could fall into.
I read Tolle, Balsekar, Ramana, Nisargadatta etc., all helped and Adya definitely helped me further through his language.

The End of Your World June 11, 2008
Format:Audio CD
In his usual intelligent and no nonsense manner, Adyashanti warns the spiritual seeker that they just might find what they are looking for! This is straight talk about the nature of enlightenment and outlines the pitfalls of the spiritual awakening process.

With penetrating insight, Adya navigates beyond the common traps which include the sense of meaningless, the ego's attempt to co-opt spiritual awakening for its own purposes, the sense of superiority that may accompany profound breakthroughs, and grasping the intoxicating bliss.

This is an honest investigation into the truth of who you really are and offers direction in how to live this truth once it has been discovered. In addition, the six cd set also offers teaching stories and an interview with Adyashanti.

He frankly shares that awakening does not offer a "new version of you," but rather no version at all. The wisdom of this collection points to the profound spiritual realization that lies beyond "you and your thoughts," "you and your emotion" and "you and your personal will."
