Product Description
Product Description
What mystics have always said, is here to view from the perspective of modern living: That actions are "happenings", and not something done by someone. This understanding is what actually contributes to and helps us in discovering the state of equanimity and peace.
About the Author
Ramesh S. Balsekar, married to Sharda and a father of three, is
known and loved by seekers from around the world as an eloquent Master of
Advaita, or Non-duality. After retiring as President of the Bank of India,
Ramesh translated many of the daily talks given in Marathi by his Guru,
Nisargadatta Maharaj. The teaching began in 1982 after Maharaj had twice
directed him to talk, and since then he has written over twenty books on
Advaita as well. Ramesh is widely regarded as undeniably unique and
uncompromising in his presentation of the concepts, in keeping with an
early premonitory remark by Maharaj that as a teacher Ramesh would not be
"parroting" the words of his Guru. In response to the appreciation
frequently shared by visitors at his talks for the singular clarity and
'purity' of the teaching, Ramesh himself has perhaps best expressed it with
his view of the Master-disciple relationship:

"The purity of the teaching lies in the absence of an
individual teacher and an individual learner - that is to say, in the
absence of a subject-object relationship. The purity lies in the
spontaneity of the happening."
