Book Review: Perfect Brilliant Stillness by David Carse

PerfectBrillianStillness

NOTE:  This is a hard-core enlightenment book.  It is NOT about giving you what you want, it is about giving what the extremely serious Spiritual Seeker needs. Most people are not ready to hear what this points to!  That is no problem — just come back here and check every so often to see if it resonates with you.  But for those of you who are ready, this book is spectacularly powerful.

Preface from the book:

The fine print:

There are many books out there that will help you to live a better life, become a better person, and evolve and grow to realize your full potential as a spiritual being.

This is not one of them.

At the time of this writing, almost every popular spiritual teacher in America and Europe is teaching that ultimate spiritual enlightenment, once attained only by certain yogis, gurus and other extraordinary beings, can now be yours; and that reading their book or attending their seminar will help you toward that end. This book will tell you that these ideas are absurd, because it’s quite obvious that neither you nor anything else has ever existed.

In fact, notwithstanding the enthusiastic blurbs on the cover, I would actually encourage any reasonably normal person not to buy this book. I say this because there’s no point in spending good money on yet another ‘spiritual’ book only to have it turn out to be of no use to you. The subject matter is such that only a very few will be interested in it. What is written about here, if it is really understood, is so genuinely strange that it is on the far edge of what the normal human brain can comprehend or accept. I wouldn’t have understood it myself, or found it interesting, before what happened in the jungle.

In addition, if you do find yourself interested, and are able to see past the words to understand at least some of what they point to, you are likely to find it quite disturbing. Few people buy books on spirituality to be deeply disturbed, so consider yourself forewarned.

And finally, if you read it anyway, and what is hinted at here resonates and is by some remote chance followed to its end, then that will likely also be the end of you. So again, a warning. With any luck, you will not come back from this with a life you can call your own; ‘you’ will not come back at all.

There’s no way to know what the chances are of this happening, but the Upanishads say that “only once in a thousand thousand years does a soul wake up,” so there’s probably no need for concern. Probably.

That said, enjoy.

 

If the above Preface resonates with you, it is highly recommended you check it out on Amazon…
