Authentic Spirituality The Direct Path to Conscio
The following report compares books using the SERCount Rating (base on the result count from the search engine).
Rating: 4/5 from 1 reviews A challenge to attain spiritual clarity | ||||||||||||||||||||
The topic of consciousness is dealt with only superficially and the emphasis is on spirituality as a route to higher/deeper consciousness. At most this book is an introduction to the direct path to consciousness, it intents to make the reader think archetypes and meta-patterns rather than dogma and teaching. The reader is challenged to look beyond his/her own cultural and religious conditioning into discovering a common thread of human spirituality. The teaching of this book will surely challenge the thinking paradigm of all established religions and organisations.
The book does not provide exiting or entertaining reading material. This is rather an honest book on spirituality stripped from dogma and cultural boundaries. The author illustrates how his own path is still bounded and limited by his own conditioning into the worlds of Sufism and Shamanism. The author, with his rich reference of experience, admits that he himself is on a path of unending discovery and development. What is presented in the book contains visions of truth but it is neither presented as the ultimate truth nor an absolute frame of reference. The book rather encourages seekers of truth to find their own individualised direct entry point into the woods of spirituality. This guideline is recommended reading for those who are disillusioned by traditional religions to again want to find and define meaning in their lives.
The value of ancient spiritual practises like meditation and breathing is presented with a new interpretation of meaning. This is a book for those who are prepared to challenge their viewpoints through critical rational thinking and who are not afraid to step into the shoes of the mystic's discovery of truth.
