Synopsis :

In the Open Path, acclaimed Sufi teacher and thinker Pir Elias Amidon delivers timeless wisdom and steadfast companionship for those of us grappling with fear, confusion, and spiritual aimlessness in an uncertain world.

Interest in nondual awareness as the essence of spiritual awakening, free from the obligations and cultural references of a particular religion, is rapidly expanding throughout the Western world. Those who have sought out and followed spiritual paths, such as Buddhism, Hinduism, Sufism, Kabbalism, etc., have often found themselves coming up against a kind of ceiling in their longing for spiritual awakening. This can be a result of the religion’s cultural context or a belief system that may not see awakening as something within the reach of adherents. The Open Path is an excellent guide to the realization of the silent ground of all being and to the expression of that realization in the diverse conditions of their lives.
