Dr. Powell is widely recognized as one of the most inspired writers on the subject of Advaita, the teaching of non-duality. He takes us on a journey beyond the realm of the ego, beyond the illusion of subject and object, good and bad, high and low, to the ground on which the manifest universe rests. This is where the mind and intellection cannot reach and which is beyond words. Yet in this book, Dr. Powell does a masterful job clearly indicating the path to where we ever have been.

Robert Powell was born in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, in 1918. After obtaining his doctorate in chemistry from London University, he pursued a career first as an industrial chemist and later as a science writer and editor in Britain and the United States. Robert Powell's personal exploration of spirituality began in the 1960s, and his quest for self-discovery led him to Zen and a number of spiritual masters including J. Krishnamurti and Ramana Maharshi. His own spiritual awakening coincided with his discovery of the teachings of Nisargadatta Maharaj. He is the editor of a Nisargadatta trilogy, and the author of a number of books on what he describes as "human consciousness transformation." Powell now lives a busy life in La Jolla, California, with his loving wife, Gina.
“An approach to so difficult a topic as enlightenment is almost always made more lucid when presented in dialogue. These dialogues are not imaginary but literal, verbal exchanges between Dr. Powell and his audience. They lend an immediate vibrancy to the matters concerned. Anyone who will take the time to entertain the scope of this book will come away moved to begin genuine self-enquiry. Those readers who have already begun this discipline will find the book an invitation and stimulus to an ever deeper self-examination.”
- Dr. Allan W. Anderson, Professor Emeritus of Religious Studies, San Diego State University
