You can also join a new e group called Advaita Bodha Deepika. (The Lamp of Non-dual Knowledge) If you would like to receive the Teachings of the Advaita Bodha Deepika in your email click: AdvaitaBodhaDeepika then look upper left and click . The Teachings will be presented with no commentary. The book Advaita Bodha Deepika is one of the few books esteemed by Sri Ramana Maharshi. Sri Ramana Maharshi often quoted from the Advaita Bodha Deepika. This English Translation was thoroughly revised in the presence of Sri Ramana Maharshi. The Advaita Bodha Deepika may well be the clearest, easiest to understand summary of the Teachings of Advaita Vedanta ever written. The book is written in the form of a dialogue between Master and disciple. The disciple doubts almost everything the Master is telling him. Therefore, the doubts that most people have, from those who are just beginning to study Advaita, (Non-duality) to those who have have been studying it for a long time, are cleared up in this book. The eight chapters are: 1. Super-imposition (Adhyaropa) 2. Its removal. (Apavada) 3. The means of accomplishment (Sadhana) 4. Hearing the Teachings (Sravana) 5. Reflecting on the Teachings(Manana) 6. Annihilation of latencies. (Vasanaksaya) 7. Direct Realization (Sakshatkara) 8. Extinction of the Mind (Manolaya) Step by step right to the extinction of the Mind. This book makes lofty and difficult points clear and easy to understand.Again if you would like to receive the Teachings of The Avaita Bodha Deepika in your e mail click: AdvaitaBodhaDeepika then look upper left and click .

Guest guest Posted August 1, 2005 Report Share Posted August 1, 2005 I also thank you very much for the link. as V. Krishnamurthy pointed out, the group is gone, but I downloaded the book (its on my palm for me to readed anywhere). Funny thing is that I tried to download it right now, but it was already on my Palm. I guess I downloaded it last week... but somehow I have forgoten it. Anyway, its funny to sit here and feel that Im an individual, that I have, somehow, forgotten the non-dual, not that is gone, but this maya (I think thats the name for this reality? or it is for another tradition?) is persistent, and somehow I have learned to love it. Thanks again.
