Re: True Self-No Self

Now that I've finished his book, "The Mandala of Being," in which Richard Moss presents his approach to teaching others to acces the pure state of consciousness that Zennies refer to as "original mind" or unadorned "presence" I think I'm ready to throw out every Buddhist and psychology book I own. I've never read anyone present so clearly and in such a profoundly simple manner what tons of Buddhists and psychologists who are attempting to steer folks out of their own suffering prattle on about in far less effective ways. I highly recommend this book! Gee, perhaps we ought to have a book recommendation thread. earl

Re: True Self-No Self

Well I definitely intend to read the Mandala of Being, sounds right up my alley.

Harrison writes about consciousness. I picked up a book of his at a used bookshop and found it quite refreshing.
