Infinite Awakening: A Guide to Nondual Wisdom and the Pathless Path - Paperback

by Stephan Bodian (Author), Adyashanti (Foreword by)

Spiritual awakening is not a distant goal. The peace, joy, and wholeness you seek are waiting to be discovered in this very moment. This book is your guide.

Infinite Awakening is a comprehensive guide to the "pathless path" of nondual spirituality. It reveals that awakening is the recognition of your true nature--a state of peace, freedom, and interconnectedness that's already complete and present within you. It invites you to explore the immediacy of your "natural state" and embrace awakening as a direct experience.

Drawing from decades of experience, including training in Zen, Tibetan Dzogchen, and Advaita Vedanta, and his many years as a spiritual teacher and director of the School for Awakening, author Stephan Bodian addresses essential questions, such as:

• What are the stages of spiritual awakening?
• How does the direct approach of the pathless path encourage awakening?
• What are the common challenges on this path, and how can we work with them?
• How does nondual spirituality differ from other spiritual perspectives?
• What is the role of a teacher, and what are the potential pitfalls?
• How can we live from an awakened understanding in every moment of our lives?
• How does trauma affect the awakening process?

As a teacher and psychotherapist, Bodian demystifies awakening with his down-to-earth approach, offering practical teachings, meditations, direct pointers, and exercises to help you not only wake up but also integrate your realization into the ordinary situations and relationships you encounter in everyday life.

Those new to the spiritual path, as well as fans of teachers like Adyashanti, Eckhart Tolle, Loch Kelly, and Sam Harris, will find this an invaluable guide to nondual wisdom and the pathless path.
