More About the Author
Product Description
Product Description
This title contains a book & CD. It presents a highly original and accessible pathway to self-discovery and personal liberation. Since 1999 the Big Mind process has been experienced by many thousands of people in seminars across America. Big Mind employs a Jungian voice dialogue technique that enables people to step out of limited self-concepts into awareness of their many different sub-selves (emotions/mental states). In addition to exploration of the more familiar sub-voices like anger and fear, author Zen Master Dennis Genpo Merzel uses this technique to help people access the ever-present Big Mind/Big Heart awareness - the clear, 'just being' awareness and the unconditional compassion that we all can experience.The Big Mind process is now available in book form to bring readers of all backgrounds many benefits, including: access to our innate wisdom, compassion and equanimity; openness of mind and ability to shift perspectives; greater presence and empowerment; and, appreciation for the wisdom within all of our many sub-selves even ones we tend to dislike or disown, like fear and anger.

On first glance it would be easy to see how this book could be seen as just another self help guide. In actual fact this is a book that will help your 'selves'. Taking it's roots from Zen, Gestalt and Voice Dialogue practices this book gives clear instructions on how to access your other voices (The Controller, Anger, Fear to name but a few) and to work with the two most powerful..Big Mind and Big Heart. The cd is very good too - with a half hour guided Big Mind meditation included.

This book, this approach, is a true gem. It is stunningly simple yet profound and will help even those with years of meditation practice under their belts to make progress.

Format:Paperback
This book sets out in clear and elegant prose, a deeply wise and compassionate pathway. Free from the spiritual jargon and superior tone that can be so damn tedious and holier-than-thou in a great deal of spiritual writing, the book teases out steps along a pathway on which we can begin to own, embody, and awaken our dualistic and non-dualistic selves.
The process, which elegantly and powerfully synthesises Zen practice with western psychotherapy, encourages us to experience the self not as `I' but as `It.' And as we begin to loosen up and let go off our sense of the `ego-self,' we can also start the process of letting go of attachment to our non-dualistic self as well.
Having identified key aspects of our Small Self and Big Self, Roshi's Big Mind process goes beyond both to include and transcend them in an act of deep integration. By integrating what is `Human' in us, and what is `Being' in us, we may at last begin to glimpse what it really means to be a `Human Being.'
This is a book that makes the mystery of enlightenment accessible and available to all.
For those stuck in ego, read this book.
For those stuck in enlightenment, read this book.
It offers a pathway not only of deep liberation but of liberating laughter at our own ridiculous delusions too.
