Wayne Liquorman Boeken

POWERLESSNESS = STRENGTH We suffer from the most insidious kind of addiction - one we don't even realize we have. It is the addiction to power itself. Both the Twelve Steps of recovery and the ancient teaching of Advaita reveal that powerlessness is the secret to genuine strength. The proposition that lasting peace in life can come through the recognition of complete personal powerlessness may seem counterintuitive and ultimately ridiculous. Yet, lasting peace is the miracle The Way of Powerlessness makes possible.

The letters reveal the personal journey of Wayne Liquorman, a contemporary Advaita sage, between 2004 and 2013. They chronicle his travels, his mentorship with Ramesh Balsekar, and his reflections on current events. Through his correspondence, Liquorman addresses inquiries from spiritual seekers, offering insights into the themes of life, death, and community. This collection serves as a poignant journal that captures the evolution of his distinctive approach to Advaita, highlighting both personal and collective experiences within the spiritual realm.

Ramesh S. Balsekar war Präsident der Bank of India, bis er im Alter von 60 Jahren sein Leben völlig umkrempelte: Er arbeitete für seinen Guru Nisargadatta Maharaj, übersetzte dessen Gespräche, erlangte dabei die „letztgültige Erkenntnis“ und begann 1982, von seinem Guru dazu aufgefordert, selbst zu lehren. Bald hatte er den Ruf, einer der bedeutendsten lebenden spirituellen Lehrer zu sein. Das Buch „Erleuchtende Gespräche“ gilt als klarste und eindeutigste Darstellung der Lehre der Non-Dualität.
