The Wisdom of Being
()
About this ebook
This book takes the reader light years beyond the conventional view of a creator and reveals the hidden core behind Buddhism, Vedanta, Sufism, Christianity, Taoism, the Gurdjieff Work and Zen...
It strips the mould, dogma and obfuscation from the great sources of spiritual insight - and uses two in particular - the Gurdjieff Work and Zen - to open the frontiers to unitary knowledge in a profoundly simple and genuine way. It provides a practical guide to self-awareness and its depth of insight, supported by relevant texts from the great transformational disciplines, outlines the direct, intuitive path to the Unborn.
The book addresses the heart of the seeker's confusion then disinters the profound truth behind the major systems of self-transformation.
John Alexandra
John Alexandra has studied with both the Zen and Gurdjieff traditions and is an expert on comparative religion. His intention here is to synthesize both Eastern and Western approaches to self-awareness and self-realisation for sincere people troubled by the apparent differences between them. His book addresses the heart of the seeker's confusion then disinters the profound truth behind the major systems of self-transformation.
