5.0 out of 5 stars profound!, May 10, 2003

By	Zen (sherman oaks, ca United States) - See all my reviews

As usual Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj's words are powerful and profound. This book is a great compliment to I AM THAT.
What we have here is Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj giving very direct discources on apperceiving yourself as the Unborn. In this series of Q & A's Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj continually dismantles the concepts of the seekers and brings us back over and over to pointing us to our True Nature.
The talks are very focused and direct. Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj's methodical approach is designed to help you question and discard all the false ideas you have carried around about your mistaken identity and instead seeing your Self beyond body/mind identification. The talks are made to make you question, inquire and go a step beyond even spritual practices. This is a great book for those that are interested in cracking the shell of the false and peering into the Infinite and going past being a "seeker" learning yet more spiritual practices etc., etc., etc. These teachings are very direct pointers into Self-Knowledge of the Absolute reality and understanding what you really are and what was the state you were in prior to consciousness.
These are amongst some of the most concise and direct teachings I've come across in print.
"There is no birth, there is no death, there is no person, it is all just a concept, an illusion!"

5.0 out of 5 stars For those who looks inside to solve outside personal situati, January 8, 1997

By A Customer

Everybody, sometime in his/her life, has a turning point. One of the multiple ways to choose is having pschicoterapy, or looking for a ready formulae, such as religions or stablished ways of thinking. Nisargadatta can give you a new experience on looking answers inside. Barely using technical words, sharp as a razor blade, as clear as possible, sometimes even funny, Nisargadatta can bring you to a totaly new self-experience. The very question, the only one that really can change our whole life, "Who am I?" is found all over the book, but no explicited. Words do not explain, indicates only. The most important is the EXPERIENCE: YOUR EXPERIENCE. This is not a book to be read in a week or a mounth. You'll have the chance to tasted it all your lifetime. You'll see how you will can change your points of view in family life , business, social relationships, everywhere. Read it, tasted it, discover your real self making the reading you own experience of finding your real self, the ultimate YOU.

5.0 out of 5 stars Straight to the Absolute, August 10, 2005

By	Felicia Krakowski (New York, NY) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

The amazing Maharaj does not hesitate to go straight to the point, the Absolute. His words elucidates you in the Absolute experience and does not hesitate on reviewing anything else other than attaining this state. I simply loved reading this book. I have read it for the second time and yet it seizes to amaze me ever more. His profound subliminal messages carry important meanings which are not hard to comprehend at all. A great sequel to I Am That.
