⭐ Reader reviews
Reader rating
As someone who reads a lot in this field, I can be picky. Solid binding, decent paper — holds up to heavy use. The font runs small in the appendices. Solid, if not essential.
A friend in my study group recommended this one. The ideas are old but land with surprising force today. A few pages arrived with light corner wear, though nothing serious. Good, with the caveats above.
Nisargadatta’s discourses are a powerful tool for dissolving illusion, but they demand total surrender from the reader. This is not a gentle guide; it actively attacks the seeker's identity, which may alienate those seeking comfort or gradual spiritual progression. It is unsuitable for readers who prefer intellectual analysis over direct experience or those unwilling to face the void of ego death. However, for the dedicated practitioner ready to shatter their own constructs, this volume offers an uncompromising and authentic route to immediate liberation within the Tantric Nath tradition.
