Format:Audio CD
I'm reviewing the CD rather than the book, and I assume the contents are the same. It says 'unabridged' on it, anyhow.
I agree with the three previous reviewers in saying that this is a little cracker of a book/CD. It's not my first encounter with the key ideas of Advaita, and I'm not sure how it would have struck me if it had been. I think I would have been more wowed than baffled.
It does challenge, and that's one of its strengths. Another is that it goes with one good central metaphor (I'll not say which, though the title gives a fair clue) and that metaphor works for everything he is saying, without seeming to break down or mislead. And in case you're wondering whether the exercise is merely cerebral, I felt more gripped emotionally by the end of it than I am by Hollywood's best.

Format:Paperback
Lucid Living by Timothy Freke may be a small and short book, but size isn't everything. In spite of its small size and length, this book is very big in terms of content. There is more spiritual truth in this little book than in many well-known spiritual books ten times its length. Timothy Freke has managed the rare feat of condensing the very essence of real spirituality into just a few pages, and presents it in a manner which is very accessible, easy to understand and even entertaining. No words, no matter how profound, can fully express truth, but this book comes just about as close as you can get. It will probably take you less than an hour to read this book, even if you read it very slowly, but that one hour might well be the most valuable time you've ever spent. This is a book that deserves to become an all-time classic.

This wonderful little book is perfect little gem. Mr Freke - what a name! - takes you on a magical journey to your own deeper nature, where you come face to face with an amazing, most unexpected, but truly delightful surprise. A must read for everyone interested in life and what it means and what it could become for all of us.

Excellent!
If you are looking for a book about enlightenment that is succinct and comprehensive then this is worth every penny. In fact it took my breath away.

Yes you can read it in an hour but as I sit here typing this, some 3/4 weeks after doing just that, I cannot even recall what it was about so no, it didn't change my life!!

Not that impressed.
This (audio) book had a interesting thought provoking start and middle but had no real finally. There was no inspiring ending which opens you up to a realistic outcome. Read more
