9781936012398: The Short Path to Enlightenment: Instructions for Immediate Awakening

Synopsis

This new, expanded edition of our most popular recent title brings forward the importance of joy and love and grace in Short Path practice—with additional meditations and expanded teachings to help readers achieve their goals. These accessible teachings distill the essence of currently popular and traditional sudden-awakening teachings (Advaita, Zen, Dzogchen, etc.). Paul Brunton calls them “Short Path” teachings. A simple recognition, a brief moment of grace, can make what seemed like a far-off spiritual goal actual here and now. But we need reliable pointers for when and how and where to look. Brunton delivers the essence and practices of this path in direct, jargon-free language. Main topics include:

  • How to move from the Long Path of spiritual disciplines to the Short Path of direct insight
  • Short Path exercises
  • Experiences that may occur
  • Warnings
  • Stages of realization
  • Stabilizing the awakening
  • The nature of lasting enlightenment

À propos de l?auteur

Widely considered the most influential writer on self-realization in the 20th century, Paul Brunton traveled the globe in search of authentic spiritual teachers, with whom he lived and studied. Major reviewers acclaim his integrative writings as "sensible and compelling," "a rich vein of wisdom," "deep and original," etc., that "stand beside Merton, Huxley, Suzuki, Watts, and Radhakrishnan." He presents and makes accessible a broad spectrum of deep teachings, both East and West.

Compilers Mark Scorelle and Jeff Cox are both longtime students of Brunton's work and are immersed in contemporary nondual teachings. Jeff recently retired as president of Snow Lion Publications, publishers of numerous works by the Dalai Lama and other revered Buddhist teachers. Both are available for promotional activities.
