Navigating the Wisdom Path
This book illuminates the path to liberation that those who turn inward and rise above denominational attachments in this life can take in order to attain knowledge of their true nature. In its four chapters, the foundation of this path – the study of the mind, understanding suffering, the inner path itself and the teaching of the path – are presented in detail. The Intelligence of Awakening describes the prospect of the transformation of the conditio humana, which is shaped, from an inner perspective, by identification with an I created by a thinking mind’s restricted worldview.
“I have found it a rare and valuable privilege to read, in the English language, this brilliant, lively translation of a compendium of perennial wisdom. The author’s vast scholarship is matched by his devotion to truth. The scope of this treatment is breathtaking. Within his deep exploration of the nature of mind, he establishes a unique marriage of East and West, as stirring insights into the core of the Christian mystical tradition are offered side by side with the profound understanding of the Advaita stream. Here is an encyclopedia of the inner life, but one that reads like a compelling guidebook for the earnest pilgrim of any spiritual, philosophical or religious path.” (Regina Sara Ryan, author of ‘Praying Dangerously’, ‘Radical Reliance on God’ and ‘The Woman Awake: Female Wisdom for the Spiritual Life’)
