Produktbeschreibung
The separation of the eye-sense from the dictation of the mental being with its permanent differentiating, separating and prejudging habits was the first highlight of his spiritual expedition. The character of this experience is first a complete stop of thinking, followed by a collapse of the dualistic division in subject and object. The illusion of subject and object is perpetuated by the habitual identification with thinking, and break to pieces when it stops. The body or the senses find back their original vision. And there is more to it than that. With the stop of thinking also the time, a mind-construct, ends and is replaced by a presence without past and future. In this eternal presence one doesn't have feelings of necessity, there is no need, no shortcoming, no wanting, no Ananke. Instead of one is full, complete, self-contented, fortunate and blissful. No words are able to express this experience, and every approach will end in speechlessness. The vision of the eyes freedfrom all separation is the vision of Oneness, endless, unspeakable. Whoever constantly lives in this consciousness, he is enlightened. But it is usual to fall back in the world of separation, of thinking, and so the memory becomes the guardian of the awakening and the heart the impulse for the journey to Oneness. Experiences like this are points of no return. Nobody can go back to the old ways of living, too strong is the yearning of the soul and too dull the old identity. The actual book wants to transfer the timeless beauty, the beauty without an opposite, to the heart of the readers and the same time arouse an enthusiasm for their own way of seeing and their individual journey back to Oneness.
Autorenporträt
The Author was born 1960 in Germany. With nearly 18 years he went to India and visited the Sri Aurobindo Ashram, where the root of spiritual yearning was planted in his heart. All seed need time to increase and to mount, in modern times most of all a spiritual seed. So, he first studied economics but changed after the intermediate Diploma to sociology. After the degree he received a training as systemic therapist and worked in an addiction clinic and for a welfare association. After the doctorate as Ph.D., he went freelance in Düsseldorf with legal guardian-ship, life counselling and motivational training. A heavy burnout with severe depressions and lots of failed therapies led finally to an occupational disability. On the basis of his diaries, he recapitulated his life and started to travel to Asia. Meanwhile he is married with his Thai-wife, lives in a farmer village und writes about the stony and thorny way from the tree of knowledge to the tree of life. This involves the whole life and leads to a fundamental different paradigm whereby the identification with thinking (¿cogito ergo sum¿) ceases and in place of thinking and word the inner silence has priority. But with that also our identity is changing. The silence led to the heart as the new centre of identity. Here, the people are connected with the whole, whereas the thinking identity is separating itself from all. And still more, we find back from thinking our life to experience our life ¿ a fundamental change! So, this spiritual revolution is not a singular event but the paradigm of the future. The last culture representing this heart-centered identity was the high culture of the Native Americans. All the troubles, the world is now facing, will lead to an overcome of the mind-centered ego to the benefit of the Divine self, or in Buddhist language, to a non-ego and the freedom of duality. All books of the author are circling around this fundamental and evolutionary step forward to a higher species, the Hyper-anthropos. Humankind will either triumph in transcendence or die out in decadence. Anyway, the victory of the light is sure, either on this wonderful earth or elsewhere in the endlessness of the Divines manifestation in space and time.
