One thousand years ago in the valley of Kashmir, a great Tantric master named Ksemaraja wrote his masterpiece: the Pratyabhijna-hrdaya, which means "The Essence of the Recognition Philosophy" - recognition, that is, of oneself as a direct expression of the universal divine Consciousness. Recognition also that this Consciousness is, in truth, all that exists, and that its five fundamental powers of awareness, enjoyment, willing, knowing, and acting are the sacred endowments of every sentient being.

Some reviewers have stated that they received nothing of the promised accompanying pdf. I got a very incomplete—choppy—version of it. Can you send me the full version, please.

Historia3.5 out of 5 stars 21
Barry Lyndon, first serialized in 1844, is a swashbuckling romp through the aristocratic Europe of the 18th century. The central character, a roguish Irishman, narrates most of the story in the first person, relating his adventures as a soldier in both the British and Prussian armies; as a gambler and confidence man under the guidance of his uncle, a practiced fraud; and as a fortune hunting gigolo in search of wealthy widows and heiresses.

Superb Rendition
Revisado: 09-07-16
Would you listen to Barry Lyndon again? Why?
Yes. This is a fictional autobiography of a most engaging rogue, an Irish adventurer, Redmond Barry. Mr. Griffin gives the definitive voice to the first person narrator. To my ears this is a perfect rendition with his affected Anglo Irish accent, and witth a most expressive delivery of all the emotions of the tragic- comic Barry.
Would you recommend Barry Lyndon to your friends? Why or why not?
Wholeheartedly
Which scene was your favorite?
Chapter 10, as Redmond Barry plays hard and gambles for the hand of The Countess Ida.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
No, i savored one or two chapters at a time
Any additional comments?
Thackery wrote a period piece centered on a fiercely articulate narcissist. The language employed is a joy to experience as read expressively by Mr. Griffen.
