Some say that my teaching is nonsense.
Others call it lofty but impractical.
But to those who have looked inside themselves,
this nonsense makes perfect sense.
And to those who put it into practice,
this loftiness has roots that go deep.

Table of Contents
Introduction
You have been searching for something beyond yourself, beyond the mundane life, beyond the plastic flowers of human existence.
Yet, every time you seem to be closing in on the Truth, something has gotten in the way. Maybe you didnt even notice it, or maybe you did but temporarily gave up, or perhaps you persisted to this very day.
What you are looking for was probably never taught to you by your teachers, parents, culture, books, society, or even your spiritual guru. Even when something truthful was said, those were mere words grabbing your attention, perhaps providing a glimpse into your own thoughtless and blissful Consciousness, but more often than not, they were just stories you heard.
Yet despite many meditations, spiritual practices, pilgrimages, mystical experiences, and so on, you see yourself sidetracking from your spiritual journey, over and over again. It is as if it were stronger than you.
Motivation can only sustain your quest for so long. The illusion of Maya seems to seduce you, ever more subtly, as you progress along your spiritual pathor shall I sayin your path toward yourself.
Daily life and society have pulled your attention onto other subjects, genuinely important subjects, society says. Those side-tracks eventually turned into your main focus, and now you live a life where you have a good job, a solid house and a warm family. At night, you read a spiritual book that keeps your heart alive, and sustains the delusion that one day you will discover the everlasting bliss of enlightenment sang and poetized by Saints and Sages. Or maybe you dont have a good job, a solid house or a warm family. Either way, this ping - pong game has to end.
Investigating further, one realizes that its not truly societys fault, or anyone elses fault for that matter, but ones own. But, its not really oneself! Rather, its a little false self, posing as the real Self.
Its name: Ego.
This is a book for those who wish to put an end to all misery and dissatisfaction once and for all.
This is a book for those who have struggled with their meditation and spiritual endeavors for a long time but have yet to put an end to their persistent self-centeredness.
This is a practical guide for those who wish to put an end to the misery-creator known as ego.
This is a practical guide for those who wish to find their eternal completeness. 25 Non-dual practices will be given that point directly toward your true nature, helping you to recognize the eternal Consciousness within, and abide there. Please, do not skip ahead to those practicesthey need a mature mind. Read the whole book in order, chapter by chapter, because in the rest of the book lie the missing keys to make these non-dual practices work.
Hopefully, this is not just another spiritual text you are reading. Do not use it as an instrument to increase your intellectual capacity, to discuss philosophy, or even to create new beliefs. Enough of those long, dense and complex spiritual volumes that often, rather than clarifying things for seekers, make them even more confused.
This book will help you to shorten your spiritual path by awakening real discrimination between the real and unreal, the eternal and temporary; and by unlocking profound Insight into your true absolute blissful nature.
The content presented herein is beyond common meditation or intellectual insights. Rather, it points toward the Consciousness that is prior to thought, ego, mind, and intellect. It guides you toward abiding in your own bodiless empty Consciousness, which is already the ever-present Truth, but seems to be obscured by the ever-deceiving ego.
Yet, theres a high chance that the egoic mind will not readily accept this text. To combat that, I will be repeating the same instructions throughout the book in different ways.
Every practitioner will face countless obstacles. Although they are illusory, since their very source, the ego, is also illusory, they need to be dissolved with the light of Awareness.
You can practice right after reading this book. Or at least repose for 5 minutes, just being still. Let the energy fill you up, quieting or even stopping your mind temporarily. Thats much more important than words. Even though they may seem like a big deal, because they help us to convey information, intellectual knowledge and instructions, words are actually the least important part of what Im trying to communicate here. It is the direct experience from which everything arises that is the true pearl were trying to reach in the deep ocean dive we call our spiritual journey.
By showing you how the ego works behind the scenes, and leads you to live a life of dissatisfaction and incompleteness, you will finally wake up to your true purpose of attaining Freedom. All ego mechanisms, schemes and deceiving tricks will be exposed.
This publication should be read with extreme awareness and focus, as if you were meditating. It has the power to elevate your normal day-to-day consciousness to a higher meditative-consciousness. Please be open-minded and consider the chance that what will be revealed points toward the Truth that the ego often seemingly obstructs.
