About this ebook
The globally renowned spiritual teacher offers a guide to awakening our most enlightened nature—the unified awareness behind all consciousness.
Interest in nondual awareness as the essence of spiritual awakening is rapidly expanding throughout the Western world. Those who follow spiritual paths, such as Buddhism, Hinduism, Sufism, and Kabbalism, often come up against a kind of ceiling due to their religion’s cultural context or a belief system that places awakening beyond the reach of adherents.
For years, Elias Amidon has helped seekers break through their blockages with his nine-month Open Path trainings conducted all over the world. In The Open Path, Amidon shares the lessons and exercises of these trainings. It is a guide to the realization of the silent ground of all being, and to expressing that realization in your daily life.
