Description
Book Synopsis
The keys to self-knowledge and deep contentment are right here before us, in this very moment--if we can simply learn to live with presence and open awareness A. H. Almaas presents a marvelously effective practice for developing the transformative quality of presence, emphasizing the importance of being attuned to one's immediate experience. Almaas explores the essence of spiritual fulfillment, not as a quest to transcend reality but as an invitation to fully embrace it. He challenges the notion of striving for idealized states, proposing instead that true peace and authenticity arise from a deep engagement with our current state of being. Through the practice of inquiry, readers are encouraged to cultivate a curious and open-hearted approach to their experiences, fostering a genuine connection with their true nature.The book offers valuable insight into the dynamics of identification, the interplay between knowing and not knowing, and the barriers that hinder authentic experience. Readers will discover the richness of their true selves by learning to disentangle from limiting identifications and embracing the fluidity of their existence. Almaas's teachings guide individuals toward a more fulfilling and genuine life, free from the constraints of judgment and fear, by recognizing the inherent value of each moment and the interconnectedness of all experiences. For those seeking a deeper understanding of self and a more authentic way of living, The Unfolding Now serves as a gentle reminder that the answers we seek are often found in the quiet spaces of our own hearts.
Review Quotes
"Almaas is a genius at revealing both the core qualities of Essence and the veils that obscure it, always in language that helps peel away those veils, always holding open the door to the unfolding presence and awareness that remains when the veils have dissolved. The Unfolding Now leads the reader through a masterful series of inquiry processes, invitations to sense and know ourselves at increasing levels of subtlety, gently walking us deeper and deeper into Truth."--Sally Kempton (Durgananda), spiritual teacher and author of The Heart of Meditation: Pathways to a Deeper Experience
"I love the unfolding Almaas! His clarity never diminishes, yet each book brings an increasing simplicity and gentleness. As I worked with this latest material, I felt like I was receiving a transmission of pure compassion. His strong, true voice reminds us that beyond the endless self-improvement projects and idealized mystical states with which the spiritual path is strewn lies the simple but exquisite taste of our own being."--Cynthia Bourgeault, author of Mystical Hope, The Wisdom Way of Knowing, and Centering Prayer and Inner Awakening
