About this listen
The Book of Nothing is a large gathering of quotes and questions that were painstakingly pulled from live satsangs by my dear friend, the late Gordon Goodman, MD. He spent an entire year pulling out helpful quotes and questions from my responses to students during our live, online Sunday Satsangs. It is a book you can read forward, backward, or start anywhere you like. You can listen to one quote or question at a time, or all 624 of them one after the other. Do as you will: It's Your book! And it's my hope that You'll come to recognize this as You go through it.
The Book of Nothing can be used as a morning meditation, or you can use it to take a dose of clarity as many times during the day or night as you want. I’ve always wanted to publish a book like this, with quotes ranging from the deceptively causal to deep-consciousness and questions in the same way that I had always wanted to write a book about both recovery and nonduality prior to publishing Beyond Recovery: Nonduality and the Twelve Steps back in 2012. May you find it as rewarding as I have.
This book has been a real labor of love - my love for you. This teaching is not for everyone, and it doesn’t try to be. But for those who come to call it their own, there’s literally nothing like it in the world. It's the fastest way to wake up that I have ever encountered. It's not "mine:" it just arrived here. Welcome to the living method of spiritual awakening.

Story
The Book of Unknowing continues the leading-edge work begun in the The Book of Undoing and Awaken Now. Those books are about how to awaken, while this one is primarily about the post-awakening experience itself - how to "clear". Topics addressed include how to assess if you're awake or not, why you may need a teacher, how to deal with various experiences in post-awakening, experiments and inquiries, and dozens more.

-
Story
Initial awakening is the most important shift that can occur within our lifetime, but even that key development is no more than an invitation to the larger dance. Ultimately, if we do not clear up after we wake up, then awakening will have been of little consequence. In the absence of that critical clearing process, our awakening is reduced to becoming a pleasant memory of an important event that happened long ago and which we presently cannot quite remember or explain.

Story
Beyond Recovery: Nonduality and the Twelve Steps is a "bridge book" that introduces Nonduality to people in recovery, and recovery to people who are already involved in nondual spirituality. Very often in recovery, participants will hit a "plateau" in whatever system they're using to clean up and clear up. They feel like they've outgrown the rigid dogma sometimes found in some recovery programs, but they still have a pull toward the relative safety of their group or tradition.

In this book of key spiritual teachings from unpublished discourses, the great Advaita Master, Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj, teaches us that we are not limited to the body. Because of our mistaken body identity, we feel separate from what we truly are. Our identification with the body and mind subjects us to endless cycles of pleasure and pain, desire and fear, which cause us to search beyond ourselves for that which we believe we lack.

Love is a transformative aspect of the spiritual path—and, in fact, it is our very nature. A. H. Almaas takes us on a journey beyond a narrow, individual understanding of love to an exploration of what he calls the boundless dimension of Divine Love. This is not the kind of love that we feel toward somebody else; it is nondual, a love without boundaries. Or put another way, it is universal true nature experienced as love.

In the Upanishads, illumined sages share flashes of insight, the results of their investigation into consciousness itself. In extraordinary visions, they experience directly a transcendent Reality which is the essence, or Self, of each created being. They teach that each of us, each Self, is eternal, deathless, one with the power that created the universe.

Story
'Reason and imagination and all mental chatter died down... I forgot my name, my humanness, my thingness, all that could be called me or mine. Past and future dropped away... Lighter than air, clearer than glass, altogether released from myself, I was nowhere around.' Thus Douglas Harding describes his first experience of headlessness, or no self. First published in 1961, this is a classic work which conveys the experience that mystics of all times have tried to put words to.

Story
You lost your friends. A work promotion has by-passed you for who knows what consecutive time. You have no time to think of your personal needs, caught up in the 9 to 5 hustle. You’re lonely. You’re surrounded by too many irrelevant people. You can’t find fulfilling connections. So many challenges to address in our busy, hectic and nearly insane lives. What if we learn to take a step back, slow down, and look inside? Wouldn’t such an approach halt the daily grind and contribute to something much more meaningful, much more exciting?
