Review
Through the teachings of Swami Lakshmanjoo my heart has been filled with more peace, more freedom and more bliss. Yet Swami Lakshmanjoo is gone, and there is no one that walks the talk. Yet then I discovered Peter Wilberg's books and website, and upon reading more and more of his teachings my heart is filled with inspiration, joy and hope. Acharya Peter Wilberg has really updated this age-old tradition of Tantrism in a way that makes it totally applicable for a modern mind and a modern humanity. Peter Wilberg speaks from a place where he not only expresses understanding of the Trika but also seems to have such in-depth knowledge of it that he have made it his own and is able to express it in a creative way. I find it interesting that Swami Lakshmanjoo was considered by many of his devotees as the incarnation of Acharya Abhinavagupta's teacher. How appropriate then, that the guiding light of the revived Trika Shaivism and Tantrism of Acharya Peter Wilberg embodies so strongly the spirit of Acharya Abhinavagupta himself. --Visarganath (Associate of the Universal Shaiva Fellowship)
Product Description
In this book, Acharya Peter Wilberg offers an introduction to Hinduism from a number of radically new perspectives - historical and philosophical, economic and political, socialist and Marxist. Its aim is to overcome the whole idea of Hinduism as just one major world 'faith' among others - and instead to reveal anew the radical essence of Hinduism as the 'Eternal Truth' or 'Sanatana Dharma'. At its heart is an understanding that the question of God's reality is not a question of the existence or non-existence of a single divine being - one that merely happens to have or 'possess' some form of consciousness. Instead the 'Eternal Truth' of Hinduism is the recognition that God IS Consciousness. This is not a consciousness that is 'yours' or 'mine'. Nor is it the Private Property of ANY body or being - human or divine. Instead God is consciousness AS SUCH - that 'pure awareness' recognised in Hindu religious philosophy as the Divine source and Divine essence of ALL things and ALL beings.
