Words so delicately provocative that they waft off the page when you blow out the candle.
Truth so deep, one is foolish to analyze, question, comment or otherwise continue to think.
Many seek for enlightenment, striving for bliss… this book will proove to you that striving is indeed a foolish hindrance to finding the very bliss that we strive for.
Many know what dualism is, many have a feeling about unity, many meditate about compassion.
If you would like to be able to say:
“One without two,
I am always the same.
I sit in my heart”
then i suggest that you read this one, and allow I to carry you into a space where you can say those words, and know them to be true.
