• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

The Spirit of the upanishads delves into the ancient spiritual teachings of the Upanishads, exploring their profound philosophical insights on the nature of reality, the self, and the universe. The book emphasizes the importance of understanding the essence of life through inner wisdom, rather than relying solely on external teachings or material experiences. It explains how the Upanishads offer a path to spiritual enlightenment by encouraging the practitioner to seek the deeper truths of existence through meditation, self-awareness, and direct personal experience. Central to the teachings is the concept of the Atman (the individual soul) and Brahman (the universal soul), with the understanding that they are one and the same. The book highlights the unity of all existence and the interconnectedness of the self with the cosmos. It also covers the practice of meditation as a means of achieving mental clarity and spiritual growth, advocating for a harmonious balance between mind, body, and spirit. The Spirit of the Upanishads serves as both an introduction to these ancient teachings and a practical guide for modern spiritual seekers, offering timeless wisdom for personal transformation and self-realization.

Autorenporträt

William Walker Atkinson (December 5, 1862 - November 22, 1932) was an attorney, merchant, publisher, and author, as well as an occultist and an American pioneer of the New Thought movement. He is the author of the pseudonymous works attributed to Theron Q. Dumont and Yogi Ramacharaka.[1] He wrote an estimated 100 books, all in the last 30 years of his life. He was mentioned in past editions of Who's Who in America, in Religious Leaders of America, and in several[ similar publications. His works have remained in print more or less continuously since 1900. William Walker Atkinson was born in Baltimore, Maryland on December 5, 1862,[4] to Emma and William Atkinson. He began his working life as a grocer at 15 years old, probably helping his father. He married Margret Foster Black of Beverly, New Jersey, in October 1889, and they had two children. Their first child probably died young. The second later married and had two daughters. Atkinson pursued a business career from 1882 onwards and in 1894 he was admitted as an attorney to the Bar of Pennsylvania. While he gained much material success in his profession as a lawyer, the stress and over-strain eventually took its toll, and during this time he experienced a complete physical and mental breakdown, and financial disaster. He looked for healing and in the late 1880s he found it with New Thought, later attributing the restoration of his health, mental vigor and material prosperity to the application of the principles of New Thought.
