Summary

Have you ever done nondual inquiry and said to yourself, "I understand it intellectually, but I don't feel it. It's not my experience!" If so, The Direct Path, inspired by Sri Atmananda (Krishna Menon), could be for you.

This book is the "missing manual" to the direct path. Direct-path inquiry is presented from beginning to end and beyond in a user-friendly way. The core of this book is a set of 40 experiments designed to help dissolve the most common nondual sticking points, from simple to subtle. The experiments cover the world, the body, the mind, abstract objects, and witnessing awareness. You are taken step by step from the simple perception of a physical object all the way to the collapse of the witness into pure consciousness. Your takeaway is that there's no experiential doubt that you and all things are awareness, openness, and love.

Also included are a section on teaching and the notion of a "post-nondual realization".

This book can be utilized on its own or as a companion to the author's Standing as Awareness.

The exercises in here can give you a hint of what the masters have been talking about for eons. Goode is an excellent teacher and a good guide to the direct path.

Good, but not as an audiobook

The content of this is good but it doesnt work as an audio book. Buy the paperback copy instead and do the exercises at your leisure.
