Seeker of Wisdom Posted February 22, 2014 http://www.box.net/shared/3verpiao63 Â This guy also has a blog called 'awakening to reality'. I haven't read much of that, but I've started reading his eBook and so far it's quite impressive. It's clearly based on experience, too. Â The way he handles Vedanta's 'I AM' realisation in unison with Buddhist realisations of anatta and shunyata is very intiquing. Â He presents Vedanta as emphasising the 'luminosity' aspect and Buddhism as emphasising the 'emptiness' aspect, but suggests that both them are necessary wings of awakening. Â Start with emptiness or luminosity, but in the end they join up with the realisation of all phenomena as dependently originated, empty, yet vivid. Â Also well reasoned criticism of ideas like 'just rest in the now' or 'you don't have to any practice because you are already That', which is going around a lot these days, based on understanding how deeply engrained delusional views are.
