Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most spiritual seekers have no real idea of what exactly it is that they are seeking even after having spent years chasing the chimera of Enlightenment. It stands to reason that if you want something desperately you would take great pains to find out what it did for those who have got it. So if you desire Enlightenment, it would make abundant sense to at least check out what the Enlightened ones have to say about the state of self-realization. That is what Enlightened Living does for you. In this book Ramesh Balsekar, arguably the most renowned exponent of the ancient philosophy of Advaita today and the author of 30 well-known books, presents you a clear perspective on the self-realized state, in his hallmark lucid style. If you have believed the sage to be a glorified vegetable, passionless and neutered to all pleasure and all pain, if you have believed that he is in a never-ending state of cocooned bliss or if you have believed that there is some- one out there to enjoy that blissful state, this book shows you just how mistaken you are. To make its point, Enlightened Living presents an impressive array of Masters from Adi Shankara to Ramakrishna Paramahamsa, from Ashtavakra to Ramana Maharshi, from Jnaneshwara to Nisargadatta Maharaj and Sengtsan to share with you, in the simplest terms possible, the reality of the state of self-realization. Pointers are used, insights are bestowed and cobwebs vigorously dusted away till what you are left with is a deeply satisfying clarity which may or may not be intellectual.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Would you like to learn the most powerful method of self-development? A technique more effective than any form of meditation, more powerful than any ritual, mantra or secret initiation. What if the most spiritual of secrets has been hidden in the most mundane of things all along? Could the most effective tool for personal transformation be in the very approach you take to your daily life? This book consists of a series of contemplations, which give specific techniques, lessons and insights designed to give you the keys to use every moment of every day to release your full potential. They contain important principles concerning aspects of life, good health or insights into the nature of the mind. Including suggestions of different ways of thinking, correcting your mind, or methods of taking advantage of how your mind already works. Of course, all of these principals can be applied on many different levels. The universal lessons contained in this text can be applied to anyone, no matter what their background or inclination. However, it will be of particular value to those who practice meditation or are undertaking any dedicated training program in which they seek the ideal state of consciousness. Readers will find the lessons contained in this book and the approach to life it suggests easy to apply due to its simplicity and effective techniques. These lessons can also be used to build upon skills already mastered, helping to grow those skills that are less developed. A collection of lessons, the reader can dip in and out of the book as they wish, finding their awareness growing with increasing ease. As their awareness expands, so will engagement with daily life leading to greater fulfilment. Enlightenment is in how we live our lives, not hidden behind closed doors or contained within spiritual practice only. This text aims to be a part of a revolution in teaching whereby the focus of our self-improvement is on the actions of our daily life bringing wisdom, focus and high consciousness to everyday tasks. So that once again we can create a result based practice, where practitioners who seek enlightenment be associated with stability, practicality, clear vision and, above all, excellence through harmonious action. True enlightenment cannot be hidden because it shines forth in every thought, word and action, creating goodness wherever it touches. This book will aid the reader in applying the skills of enlightenment to their daily life. Martin Faulks has extensive experience in this field as a meditation expert who has spent over twenty years dedicating his life to personal development. He also runs the Seshan School of Hermetic Meditation, a successful meditation school where he assists and advises students in their practice.

Religions claim to have answers, but they are couched in faith and constrained by rituals that make each religion different from the next. The inevitable result has been conflict and war. Enlightened Living is neither religious nor spiritual, offering instead a rational and practical path that is available to everyone. Enlightenment isn't found by austerity or following rituals but by the sustained practice of observing attachments and letting them go.

Book excerpt: It’s moving day and just the thought of packing, loading, unloading, unpacking, and starting a new life seems daunting, except this time the move is not to a new house or location. This time, the move is within–a spiritual shift–and you can’t hire or ask anyone else to do it for you. LIVING ENLIGHTENED--THE JOY OF INTEGRATING SPIRIT, MIND AND BODY presents an integrative path to transcending the ego, releasing preconceived ideas, letting go of fears and resentment, and allowing ourselves to become fully immersed in the present moment. As you shift to the joy, peace, wealth and prosperity, overwhelming love and divine intuition, you’ll know you have moved to a new home – only now you’ll be in alignment with the All There Is. Author Elizabeth Cantey had been living a life that seemed happy and prosperous on the outside but one day that life collapsed, leaving her unsure of what true happiness is and where it can be found. Seeking a new life, she looked everywhere yet came up empty time after time. That’s when she realized her “moving day” had arrived. It was now time to move from her familiar life to an enlightened life. Here in this powerful new book you will follow Cantey’s journey as she learned to embrace love, joy, and peace from within, regardless of her outer circumstances. All this from a woman who has walked the path.
