Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Wisdom and Where to Find It is about common questions that are asked, particularly in the early stages of the spiritual life, and arise out of self-enquiry. Such as: What choice do I have? What holds me back? What is truth? Where is the limit to my rational understanding? What are my moral and social obligations? Are they in conflict with the spiritual quest? Barry Long addresses subjects like these with a rigorous rejection of anything not directed towards the highest truth. The book is full of clear, concise statements that challenge readers to match their own wisdom against that of the teacher. Which makes reading the book an actual teaching process. It is composed of five lectures given when Barry Long was starting out as a teacher. Their titles are: The Mystic Death, The Problem of Choice, Why Man Must Suffer, What Man Must Do, and Observation and Meditation. This introduction to self-discovery addresses the challenges we face in the spiritual life, the false nature of belief, the problem of choice, the question of suffering and the conflicts implicit in conventional morality. It shows what we can do to face the truth through meditation and observation. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. This book contains the heart of Barry Long's spiritual teaching and offers practical ways to be free of the 'unhappy body', or painful self, which lives inside all of us. It describes the causes and effects of unhappiness in us and the world at large, the meaning of karma and what happens if we take our unhappiness with us when we die. The spiritual process is like 'dying for life'. Barry Long shows us how to face all our difficulties and how to live joyously, according to the law of life. Many readers have compared this book to Eckhart Tolle's bestseller The Power of Now.How to be free of unhappiness in an unhappy world. It can be done!The earth awaits a revolution in consciousness as day by day discontent grows around the world. But unhappiness, accepted as normal, is not a natural part of life. Those willing to rid themselves of unhappiness may go through hell on earth to be free. But in them a new consciousness is born.It dawns with the discovery that only fear dies.This book contains a profound spiritual teaching which it is not at all abstract or remote but directly useful to anyone trying to look for truth in this world. Barry Long redirects our attention back to the source of all problems - ourselves. He challenges us: Why do we insist on having the right to be unhappy?First we are shown how to deal moment-to-moment with what makes us discontented so that we can practice staying free of it. Then Barry Long examines the roots of unhappiness and how it attaches itself to us from an early age. He describes how this preoccupation with discontent is played out in the world at large, in politics and the media. There is a prophetic section on the unholy alliance of the media and the politicians - written nearly 20 years ago, but the implications of what is said here become more obvious every day. The later essays are about where responsibility lies, and why we must become more responsible for ourselves. There is a chapter about living under the Law of Life, or Karma. And the final essay in the book describes the drama of life from conception to death and beyond, and how we enter the mysteries of living and dying. This knowledge holds the secret of final liberation from the ills of the human condition. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. A Prayer for Life is an extended essay about how prayer works and how the power of prayer is often misused. The author offers examples of right prayer and describes the consequences of praying for things that are not ours to have. The book's subtitle is 'The cause and cure of terrorism, war and human suffering'. Barry Long argues that these are the ultimate consequences of the unconscious praying of human race for material success and advantage. He predicts that our planet will not be able to withstand the extent of man's corruption and that eventually a more evolved humanity will inherit 'a new earth.' In a few short, closing chapters he offers a vision of a future where human beings will have been utterly transformed. Barry Long writes about why our civilization is being shaken, and predicts the outcome: a vision of a new life on earth, beyond anything that can be imagined today.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Stillness is the way to self-knowledge, to the secret of life and real love. Very hard to find in this world. We need help. It has to be shown and proved to us in our own experience. That's the work of the real teacher, guru or guide. This book is the nearest thing to having the teacher by your side. Follows on from bestselling 'Meditation A Foundation Course'. Detailed guidance in advanced spiritual practice. Participate as you read. Unique insight into the teacher at work. Enter your own inner world. Open the door to reality. 'It is thrilling to discover a reliable guide upon this path of meditation .Barry Long, a remarkable teacher whose words have the certainty of a deeply realised being.' - Meditation Magazine (USA) Most books about meditative practice are surveys of techniques handed down from various religious traditions and explained by authors who've studied them. This is not one of those books. Here we watch a modern master at work over a period of three days with seven people, whom readers can identify with. It's a vivid account of what happens as the truth of a teaching is revealed.More like a documentary than a treatise, the book follows every step of the way, detailing each exercise, and shows how the students face their difficulties and have their questions answered. Each of them is helped to overcome their own 'guardian of the threshold' - the restlessness, self-doubt or confusion that arises to test all who draw near the still centre of their being. Towards the end essential themes are drawn together and the student or reader moves on, beyond the techniques of formal meditation. The door is opened to a new way of being, where truth, love and grace are no longer abstractions but a living reality; where unhappiness may be dissolved and we are free to live our lives at ease, unselfishly, for the greater good. A follow on to "Meditation: A Foundation Course". This text follows the process experienced by several people over the course of a weekend as Barry Long takes them deeper into meditation and they go through their resistance to stillness.
