Instructions For Spiritual Living

Description

Instructions for Spiritual Living gives the reader answers to the questions that arise on the spiritual path. No matter where we are in our spiritual development, we all have questions about our practice. Discusses what we are experiencing–both the challenges and opportunities. How can I overcome my struggles to meditate more deeply? Is there a need for a guru or can I rely on myself? Can I trust my intuition? Is it possible to hear the “Inner Word,” the voice of the soul, how can I be sure that’s what I’m hearing? Is the Higher Self in the heart?

Offering trustworthy answers to these and many more questions, renowned spiritual teacher Paul Brunton provides instructions to guide one’s development in three fundamental areas of the spiritual path:

meditation,
self-examination,
and the unfolding of awakening.

Guiding you with insight and care through each stage, including advanced states that deepen one’s inner life. He explains how meditation is the art and practice of introverting attention, of freeing oneself for a period of time from thoughts, sensations, and feelings. Allowing the soul to reveal itself out of the quiet that one has created. He explains the goal of each meditative stage and the obstacles you are likely to face. Examines the need for spiritual dependency on any particular guru, teaching, or practice. Showing that following your intuition can bring spiritual success.

Includes writings received by the Paul Brunton Philosophic Foundation after his death, this guide offers transformative wisdom to aid our understanding of what the spiritual journey entails. And helps point the way when the way is uncertain, so that you learn and grow from the challenges that arise as you develop spiritually.
