The West has borrowed from the East for far too long. Go create the truly unique Western version\" Ramesh Balsekar\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAlan Shelton, like many before him had his awakening experience that revealed the the nature of consciousness. His lifelong interest, within the corporate arena and the world at large, was how to make sense of such an experience in his own western tradition. One day over tea he asked Ramesh Balsekar, his mentor, how he saw what the west needed now. \u003c\/strong\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe words above are those that Ramesh spoke to Alan\u003cem\u003e. Pointers to Awakening\u003c\/em\u003e is the response to this insight. The way that the West understands itself is to embrace the terrain upon which any journey occurs. Our Western tradition wants to know where we are headed and what are the signposts. Pointers to Awakening is a chapter by chapter, pointer by pointer, build of this terrain. Yes, the eventual burst of awakening is rendered in presence. But what points to that eventuality? Ultimately all there is to understand is that, as a seeker, you likely live in a state of mistaken identity. What then is that identity? Who are you really? This book is for the serious seeker who likely has visited many dead ends in the spiritual process. If you want to onboard the unvarnished version of the spiritual journey, this is the ultimate guide. \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Red Hatchet Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/01\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780984712533\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 342\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.11lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.76d","brand":"Alan E.
