About this listen

Inspired by Sri Atmananda (Krishna Menon), the Direct Path is a "pathless path". It simply articulates the being of you and the world as loving, open, clear awareness. If this truth is realized as your experience, then nothing need be done. The path disappears, and life is lived in sweetness and celebration! But if there are still questions or doubts, the Direct Path contains unique and powerful resources that stabilize this truth as your everyday reality. This is a revised edition of the book, expanded to add chapters on the Direct Path in addition to its selection of dialogs from a decade of "Nondual Dinner" gatherings. The first three chapters unfold the basics of the Direct Path, such as standing as awareness, being in love with awareness, and exploring awareness. Included are several experiments that help establish your everyday experience as awareness, always and already. The dialogs cover questions such as the desire for enlightenment experiences, the relationship between the brain and awareness, the question of "nondually correct" language, the belief in physical and mental objects, the idea of having a sage's experience, and more.

Great content frustrating narration.

The content is excellent. Direct path explanations and exercises set Greg apart from others and this book is no exception.
The narration is poor. It’s a book about nonduality it has frequent references to Nisagardatta Maharaj but the reader reacts to the name as if it’s new to him every time and bodges it in so many ways it’s 5 syllables Nisa-gar-da-tta you wouldn’t be selected to narrate a book on the atom bomb if you couldn’t fathom how to pronounce Oppenheimer. In the end he just drops part of the name altogether 😂. It’s funny until it’s annoying. Get the kindle/book or find an alternative narration if you can.

simple and good experiments

I was a bit hesitant about buying this but I am surprised how good the experiments are in it! Google is a trained philosopher and the book can get a bit analytic but it really is for those half way up the ladder like me.
