Ian Posted February 21, 2008 Sean has mentioned this guy before, but I think he deserves his own thread. Apologies if there's one already. Basically, he's an arahant, by his own assertion, and reckons it's not that hard to become one too with reasonable dedication and proper instruction. So he's written his "unusually hardcore dharma book", which you can read online here Suggest you read it all through before you ask him any daft questions (unlike me). He's pretty thorough, and really quite funny. Best wishes, Ian Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
joeblast Posted February 21, 2008 Interesting, thanks Ian! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sean Posted February 22, 2008 Love this book. I've read it more than once and plan to read it again. For a quicker introduction to this teacher, listen to the podcasts he was on here: Daniel Ingram on FallingFruit.tv All of them are fantastic. Really sharp, unique dharma guy IMHO.

三江源 Posted March 5, 2008 I'm reading this book online, it's very fascinating in delineating in detail, different enlightenment experiences. Ian, I am also reading the Magus of Strovolus thanks to you. You have a knack of finding good books, methinks. thankyou. I'm bumping this up to encourage readership of your link and hopefully talk about it and our experiences a little. I'll post again when I have read more.

What I really like is how he's so straightforward about what enlightenment of his sort does NOT do. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mal Posted January 29, 2009 Anyone interested in reading through this one together? (Sean keeps poking me ) If so pop onto http://www.thetaobums.com/Mastering-the-Co...ddha-t8295.html Thinking about starting in Feb so if you are interested have a look at Contents Foreword and Warning Part I: The Fundamentals 1. Introduction to Part I And then we can venture forth from there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sunya Posted January 29, 2009 this book is awesome so far. thanks for the tip. Daniel Ingram seems legit, awakened, free of dogma, fierce attitude, and great sense of humor. reminds me of Glenn Morris and Jed Mckenna Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
