Advaita Vedanta - Being the self. by Prabhuji (Hard cover - English)
){kind=link}
Advaita Vedanta is Hinduism’s most pristine philosophical pearl. It is reserved for seekers of Truth who want to know their own essence and aspire to liberation or mokṣa. It suggests following the path of knowledge, called jñāna-yoga, which leads us to knowing ourselves as Brahman and realizing our reality as the transcendental Self, beyond time and space. It teaches self-inquiry: “Who am I?” This question is an expression of the noblest rebellion. It restores our dignity and accepts us as the only authority on who we are.
In this book, Prabhuji presents the principles of Vedanta that will help seekers take their first steps on this path. Rather than offering information, explanations, and answers, he inspires us to inquire, doubt, and investigate our own essence. He tells us that all efforts to achieve enlightenment are superfluous because we already are what we aspire to be.
Prabhuji is a realized master, an avadhūta, a universalist Advaita mystic, an authorized representative of Hinduism, and the founder of the Retroprogressive Path. His profound religious dedication is expressed through his artistic work as a writer and painter.
A mystical experience at the age of eight inspired his quest for Truth, or Ultimate Reality, transforming his life into a genuine inner and outer pilgrimage. He has dedicated more than fifty years to the exploration and practice of different religions, philosophies, and paths of liberation. He has absorbed the teachings of great masters, shamans, priests, machis, shifus, roshis, shaykhs, yogis, pastors, rabbis, kabbalists, monks, gurus, philosophers, sages, and saints whom he personally visited during his years of searching. For him, awakening at the level of consciousness, or the transcendence of the egoic phenomenon, is the next step in humanity’s evolution. Prabhuji chose to retire from society and lead the life of a hermit. His days are spent in solitude, praying, writing, painting, and meditating in silence and contemplation.
