Product Description

Synopsis

This is an uncompromising and provocative book about non-duality. In liberation it is seen that all phenomena simply arise in awareness with no person mediating them. Purpose, religion and paths of spiritual development all lose their meaning when it is seen that there is no one who exercises choice. "Richard's description of what has been seen in liberation is both eloquent and down to earth. His direct, uncluttered and concise expression can be readily identified with and speaks directly to that knowing which is beyond seeking." Tony Parsons - author of The Open Secret

5.0 out of 5 stars A book that dares!, 5 Jun 2008
Other than Charles Dickens's character, Sydney "it is a far far better rest that I go to than I have ever know" Carton, there is a general, social taboo against talk of our existence being an imposition upon us. It sounds negative, seems ungrateful and it sticks in the throat. Besides, we are engrained with the view that it is the other way round: life (the project of being "me") is a desirable possession and death is an outrageous imposition. "I Hope You Die Soon" is undeterred, firstly taking a momentous risk with its title and then forging on to defy our taboo. In "I Hope You Die Soon", Richard Sylvester eases us out of old conventions and into new vistas, but not as "us"!

New vistas: summer has come, hawthorn blossom can be detected upon the air and the hills are rolling out willingly before us in the sun. If you pick up "I Hope You Die Soon" in any sort of crisis, however, you can be sure that you are looking for something for yourself, some help perhaps. But awareness, of which this hawthorn blossom and those hills are emblematic, resists being just "for you" or "for me". Richard shows us that they are for no one and no purpose. And, as it were, how nevertheless to snap it on your digital camera!, upload it on your PC, make it "just for me", having outrageously more fun than ever with the "me" story!

Richard's book conveys his characteristic wit and irony. They glint through his writing. One thinks that he and Socrates might have had a great chat. Not just Socrates, however; the style of "I Hope You Die Soon" allows one to feel that one is having a really valuable chat with the author.

Alan Watt's book, "The Book : On The Taboo against Knowing who you are" relieved me of my life in the Seventies, but also left me striving in various unforeseen ways. Richard's Sylvester's book is its successor - relieving all striving in all its varieties.

5.0 out of 5 stars Stunning, 27 Aug 2009
One of the most lucid descriptions on non-dual reality that I have come across. Cuts through all of the confused drivel that the mind usually employs to remain mesmerized by the appearance.

1.0 out of 5 stars rubbish, 6 April 2009
By M. Toerien (surrey) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
One of those guys like Tony Parsons who's had a satori and then thinks he's a guru,but hasn't anything useful to teach except the one idea of individuality & free-will being illusory so he wrongly thinks that as theres no doer ther's no effort you need to make.How badly WRONG and unhelpful.
