Robert speaks from the position of someone who knows by direct experience like Nisargadatta or Maharshi. The words mostly are as profound as either. Robert also gives practical advice on Self Enquiry and practice in general. Robert calls himself a desciple of Ramana Maharshi as he apparently had a spontaneous awakening as a teenager. A couple of quotes: "There is only one I actually. That I is Consciousness. When you follow the personal I to the source, it turns into the universal I, which is Consciousness. Begin to catch yourself. begin to realize your divine nature. You do this by keeping quiet. The fastest way to realization is to keep quiet." "Grass grows spontaneously, but we can imagine we are making it grow with our willpower. The same with the activities of our bodies." Recommended Was this review helpful to you? Advaita Vedanta for the Experienced Practictioner, December 25, 2002 Reviewer: A reader from United States i would strongly recommend Robert Adams' "Silence of the Heart" as one of the clearest and most pragmatic approaches to actualizing Advaita Vedanta as a practice. Realizing that Advaita Vedanta is a practice of no practices, Robert does a masterful job of describing many simple, practical approaches to "Truth", approaches that take one out of the habitual mind games and move one to directly face the reality of the present moment. His voice comes not from someone else's story, but from his direct experience as a reporter and observer of his own. All that Robert reports are what one does really find at the end of the approaches and they are reported with as much clarity and simplicity as possible. Strongly recommended for the experienced "nondualist" or meditator who has moved to the end game that is no end game.

Read it, read it slowly, read it again. Advaita, American style. Follow the recommendations, they work. Vol. II to follow, hopefully soon.

I have tried reading Maharshi & Nisargadatta but Adams' book talked to me powerfully, peacefully and personally. I highly recommend it. The essense of the teaching centers around "being" as opposed to "thinking". I found myself thinking while reading Maharshi and Nisargadatta, but while reading Adams I found myself letting go and being - beautiful. Was this review helpful to you?
