ESSENCE AND THE ELIXIR OF ENLIGHTENMENT

The Diamond Approach to Inner Realization

Essence:

"Almaas demystifies enlightenment, helping us to see it, not as some mysterious event, but rather as a down-to-earth, understandable process with definite stages and sign posts--a process in which the personality gradually releases its grip on our being, and allows essence to emerge and transform the personality itself.

Essence is a revolutionary book in its synthesis of Western and Eastern approaches to psychological and spiritual development." Yoga Journal

The Elixir of Enlightenment:

"An excellent introduction to the process of true Spiritual training."

A.H. Almaas answers the question, "Why do most people on spiritual paths fail to attain what they seek?" by exploring the active relationship between personality and Essence as it inspires and impedes the search. In the light of his own contemporary Diamond Approach, he examines the teachings of Krishnamurti, Rajneesh, and Buddhism, providing invaluable insight for students and teachers on any path.
