This new, expanded edition of our most popular recent title brings forward the importance of joy and love and grace in Short Path practice—with additional meditations and expanded teachings to help readers achieve their goals. These accessible teachings distill the essence of currently popular and traditional sudden-awakening teachings (Advaita, Zen, Dzogchen, etc.). Paul Brunton calls them “Short Path” teachings. A simple recognition, a brief moment of grace, can make what seemed like a far-off spiritual goal actual here and now. But we need reliable pointers for when and how and where to look. Brunton delivers the essence and practices of this path in direct, jargon-free language. Main topics include:
- How to move from the Long Path of spiritual disciplines to the Short Path of direct insight
- Short Path exercises
- Experiences that may occur
- Warnings
- Stages of realization
- Stabilizing the awakening
- The nature of lasting enlightenment
Paul Brunton helps us hear the melody behind the medley of today's "spiritual marketplace." His late writings raise the bar for what we can expect of spiritual teachings and teachers, and what we can do for ourselves. Born in London in 1898, he soon became a leading pioneer of much of what we now take for granted. He traveled widely throughout the world (long before it was fashionable) to meet living masters of various traditions with whom he then lived and studied. His eleven early books from 1934-1952 shared much of what he learned, and helped set the stage for dramatic east-west exchanges of the late 20th century.
