Embodied Enlightenment: Living Your Awakening in Every Moment
Description:
Within the pages of Embodied Enlightenment, Amoda Maa offers a profound invitation: to awaken to our true nature and to live the truth of this awakening in everyday life.
Divided into three parts, Amoda comprehensively explores the evolutionary imperative of awakening, the journey of inner transformation and, finally, how to live from wholeness and freedom in the midst of our human experience.
She writes, “Whilst the invitation of my teaching is a timeless one—it is the essential pointer to freedom that cuts through all cultures, all ages, and all traditions—it is also a very timely one. The willingness to recognize the indivisible wholeness of consciousness that underlies all seemingly separate “things”—moment by moment—is the resolution to personal suffering.
This recognition of what is prior to all perception, feeling, thought, and experience, is a falling into inner silence that brings an end to the torment of craving and aversion that is a symptom of ego’s restlessness—it is the discovery of our essential nature as unbounded Being-ness. And it is from here that we can take action in our lives and in the world from this undivided state.
In a world of escalating division, perhaps this fundamental transformation of consciousness from ego’s perspective of separateness to the deepest knowing of our shared Being-ness is the only way forward for humanity.”
This book is a rich resource for the contemporary spiritual seeker. Nonduality traditionally focusses only on the pristine state of emptiness but Embodied Enlightenment delves deeply into the often messy earthly dimension of ordinary life.
