Synopsis

The great Sufi mystic Muhyiddin Ibn Arabi once said, "All is contained in the Divine Breath, like the day in the morning's dawn." If we become aware of the power of our breath, we have the ability to bring about real change, both psychologically and potentially on a vast scale. But what is this breath that is fundamental to our existence? In Breathing Alive, internationally renowned author Reshad Feild shows us that it is actually not so difficult to understand when we come to realize that we all share just one thing in common - the element of air.

Biographie de l'auteur

Reshad Feild worked as a naval officer, stock broker, advertising specialist, pop singer with the chart-topping group The Springfields, antique dealer and Radionics healing practitioner. In the course of a lifelong adventure, which he describes as a "continual search for ever finer dimensions of truth", he came into contact with the teachings of Gurdjieff and Ouspensky, met with Tibetan Buddhism and its lamas, American Sioux Indians as well as shamans and masters of the Sufi path. Although Reshad prefers to have no labels, he has been involved with the path of transformation since an early age. But it was not until in the late 60's he met his taecher Bulent Rauf, who himself stemmed from a long Sufi tradition, that he found what is called the Way of Love, Compassion, and Service. He also received initiation into the Mevlevi order of the "whirling" dervishes in Konya, Turkey and helped bring their sacred ceremony to the West. In fact, his whole life has been devoted to the quest for the purpose of life on earth and the unfoldment of the Eternal Truth, which appears and re-appears in the form that is needed and accepted in specific parts of the world, and at the right time.
