Beyond No Self by Daniel Erway (top rated ebook readers .TXT) 📕

sense of meaning and purpose back to this relative life of the body and mind, not as a means of gratification

to your idea of yourself, but as a pure expression of the wonder and beauty of this deeper reality. Instead of

living a life in service to the ego’s wants and needs, you can find yourself fulfilling the deepest purposes of a

human life: to serve and express freedom, joy, beauty, peace and love. By itself the realization of no-self can

end up dry and lifeless, but when the heart opens wide to the bigger truth of the true Self, life is anything but

dry and lifeless.”

Gifts With No Giver

A collection of nondual poetry by Nirmala. Here is a sample poem:

every taste

every sensation

every possible pleasure

is already present

in the timeless

awareness

that is beating my heart

what use

in chasing dreams

that have already

come true

Part One of Nothing Personal, Seeing Beyond the Illusion of a Separate Self

(The whole book is available as a paperback for $16.95)

In this concisely edited collection of satsang talks and dialogues, Nirmala “welcomes whatever arises within

the field of experience. In the midst of this welcoming is always an invitation to inquire deeply within, to the

core of who and what you are. Again and again, Nirmala points the questions back to the questioner and

beyond to the very source of existence itself—to the faceless awareness that holds both the question and the

questioner in a timeless embrace.” –From the Foreword by Adyashanti.

“Nothing Personal is an excellent book, very clear and warm-hearted. I love it and recommend it highly.

Nirmala is a genuine and authentic teacher, who points with great clarity to the simplicity and wonder of

nondual presence. He invites you to ‘say yes to the mystery of every moment.’ Good stuff!”–Joan Tollifson,

Advaita teacher and author of Awake in the Heartland
