5.0 out of 5 stars If your were searching for the Truth, you found it !, February 1, 2002

This review is from: Unveiling Reality (Paperback)

This book gives one the opportunity to hear John's gentleness at play. The book is a written version of 4 meetings with John de Ruiter and a public (in a question/answers format).

Everytime I meet him, I am always surprise at how much he does not compromise the truth for any reason. I know him now since about 8 years and I can say that the book is great but being in his presence is unexplainable. The community, here in Edmonton, keeps on growing so beautifully and expect even more for the years to come.

To all sincere seeker !

5.0 out of 5 stars Pure Truth but who is talking?, December 27, 2003

This review is from: Unveiling Reality (Paperback)

This book hits home again and again. The style is all John's own and that's why I think it goes so deep unlike much of the "Advaita Deluxe", spiritual muesli, which is on the non-dual bookshelves now days.

While every sentence spoken by John is packed with meaning it is a pity that it not made clear where one dialogue ends with an inquirer and where another starts. If this had been indicated then it help give an additional context and meaning. For example, I know that 'Chapter 7' included an historical exchange with Dave Oshana who one year later became an enlightened teacher with his own unqique style. However, the same chapter merges a discussion with Oshana and another inquirer, and so it is not clear who is talking.

Perhaps, the editors made this choice to not distract in any way from John's delivery but for some readers the removal of information lessens the chance to get the full picture.

5.0 out of 5 stars A one of a kind book., March 11, 2004

Amazing man, amazing book. This book simply contains direct transcriptions of dialogues from John's live question and answer meetings. For me personally it has been one of the simplest and clearest books I have ever read. John's message is more deeply moving and more timely than the entire fields of science, religion and psychology put together. No doubt, John is a truly enlightened master, right up there with Jesus and Buddha themselves.
