Essence of Recognition: The Yoga of Radiant Presence Revealed Within the PRATYABHIJNA HRIDAYAM for Modern Yogis

Absolutely incredible, short and straight to the point. This book alone is sufficient for awakening and ultimately realization. I’ve found all of Peter’s books to be incredible precise. He describes path in a very unique way free of standard terminology used in so many esoteric teachings.

The book is about really great stuff. I am about halfway through it. It requires frequent breaks. I have to go over each page lots of times because the sentences are very long and complex. It would help if there could be more parables and metaphors and examples to connect such abstract ideas with daily life. I'm worried that no matter how much I read this book I still won't ever know what to do with it.

I rest my case..(These other words are only added to the above, to meet the required numbers of words.)

If you are a yogin or sincere seeker of truth, this little book has the power to trigger the direct recogntion of your true nature. Savour each sutra and you will realize your jiva is in fact Shiva! ~ Tom Thompson

Quality eBook. Got to give it to Peter. He's somehow managed to distill thousands of years of Buddhist naval-gazing into about a twenty minute read. Seriously. He couldn't make it any more direct and simple. If you still can't get your head around what enlightenment is after this, just buy a crate of beer and watch the Super Bowl instead.

Don Juan told Carlos that the world is a feeling,, Adi Da spoke of feeling-without-limitation, and while these ideas seemed significant when I came across them, it was Peter Brown who brought the bacon home with his notion of exploring the direct feeling of experience as a textural presence. In his recorded meetings, time and again Peter elaborates on free falling into the feeling of experience which is simultaneously a dropping out of identification with interpretive structuresI resonate deeply with this book

Ho apprezzato il testo per la sua sintesi, chiarezza e essenzialità. Niente di più e niente di meno dell’ essenziale.
