A New Book on Spirituality

I have published a book on Natural Spirituality with the help of Collective Ink (UK, USA) publishers. [They are also known as John Hunt Publishing]; December 1, 2024. Natural Spirituality is not governed by any belief system or anti-belief system. Title of the book is “The Journey into Oneself”. You can find the book on Amazon.com, Barns and Noble, Ingram and such retailers.

The following are the talking points about the book:

What Does This Book Deal With? The Spirituality beyond the Religions Mindfullness and Inner Silence Afterlife and Reincarnation Some Aspects of Peacefulness in Practical Life.

Who Will Benefit from this Book? The book is intended to be a wayside companion to those who wish to explore the spiritual side of life even as they passionately fulfill their daily responsibilities. The resulting spirit would imply an adventurous attitude and the curiosity to sense what lies beyond the apparent.

What is the Focus of the Book? The theme of the book focuses on how we can take a journey into ourselves through quiet self-awareness. Though some verbal concepts are used in the book for initiation, the reader is encouraged to move on to a non-verbal understanding of life, body, mind and death. Just as is the case in the deep ocean, the deeper we go into ourselves, the more peaceful our mind becomes.

What will be the Benefits of Reading the Book? The byproducts of reading the book are likely to be: A Deepening Peace of Mind A universal feeling of compassion towards all living beings, and even towards the inanimate things! Attachment to belief systems would disappear. Such things as herd mentality, which holds one group against another, would leave the planet.

How Does the Book Help? As one takes the journey into oneself, the more peaceful one’s mind becomes, without having to practice any method or technique. Dos and Don’ts cannot help much. Thus, one becomes effortlessly released from the conventional mindset and its habitual neurosis.

Where Does This Book Fit In? This book can help the mind move into the zone of unspoiled consciousness indicated by Enlightened Masters from India and other countries. It also deals with some paranormal phenomena such as the Near Death Experience (NDE). Paying attention to such phenomena widens one’s perspectives and brings about freedom from the fear of death, as also from other mental problems such as self-pity, loneliness and boredom.

What Is Different about this Book? While presenting issues for serious reflection, this book puts forth a rather uncommon pointer that a lighthearted attitude also plays a healthy role in spirituality. It looks at “What is it to be a Comedian in the Drama of Life?!” Such legendary figures as Sherlock Holmes and Tarzan too perform their little dances in the narrative of this book. It can bring in an affectionate detachment towards life – like standing back and observing the river flow. As the reader goes through the pages, a strange non-verbal understanding of life, mind and death would have a chance to blossom. Subsequent reflections on those insights can bring about stable peace, helping one meet life with equanimity.

Who would be interested in this book? People imbued with a spirit of adventure, having an aspiration to lead a vibrant life and, at the same time, discover what lies beyond the apparent. People who are interested in leading a peaceful life through exploring the universal spiritual field – that is, the spirituality which goes beyond concepts and exclusivist religious practices.

The Journey into oneself

I have published a book on Universal Spirituality that can help people to strike their own trail towards Divinity. It is not affiliated to any belief system. That is how it can be universal. The byproduct of it can be a peaceful mind in daily life.

It is good to observe how we unknowingly burden ourselves due to the habitual neurology.  The fear of life and the fear of death arise due to living with that burden. It is possible to drop that burden and live with freedom. Deepening self-awareness and the non-conformist attitude help in this regard.

[tcgopal]

The conventional psychology of human beings have arrested them in prison from which it becomes difficult to free oneself.  This has led to a sad humanity with its never ending violence and unhappiness. Freedom from that situation is possible when people apply themselves to both the practical and spiritual responsibilities with gusto.

[tcgopal]

The topic of parallel lives adds an intriguing aspect to the study of reincarnation. Many case histories have been recorded.

[tcgopal]

Observing oneself and being clear about how we fall prey to the rigmarole of the thought process can help us release a lot of the burden that we unknowingly accumulate. There is the treasure of the silence beyond the conventional field of the mind. Listening to the Enlightened Masters or to the near death experience people can take us into that source of silence. Deep relaxation is possible.

[tcgopal]

Releasing oneself from the conventional neurology can help us free ourselves from the common psychological negatives such as fear, anger, regret, attachment, resentment etc.  One can discover the factors that give us a push in the direction of a radical departure from the habitual road in which thousands of people are on a mad rush. In-depth living becomes possible.

True spirituality is not associated with any religious practice because they all inevitably feed the ego; otherwise there would be no quarrel or war based on religion.   When man turns inward and begins to discover his deeper being, he finds the contents of universal spirituality, untouched by sectarian beliefs and dogmas. The heavens open into the universal consciousness.

Known as the Sage of Arunachala, Ramana Maharishi lived in Tiruvannamalai, Tamil Nadu, India.  His universal message is for people who understand the value of self-awareness and the inward journey that frees them from the shallowness and confinement of the conventional mindset.

[tcgopal]

Research on near death experiences have revealed many amazing aspects of our Deeper Self. Because people live oblivious of it, their personal life gets governed by the ego. This leads to mediocrity in life and to the self-importance that destroys harmony in oneself and others.

[tcgopal]

One of the interesting aspects of near death experiences is the matter of aftereffects of the experience.  They confirm that NDEs are indeed spiritual experiences giving a glimpse of the vaster consciousness. Debra Diamond has brought out a nice book entitled "Life After Near Death" after careful research studying twelve resounding cases of NDE. This book reveals interesting and important information that can help people move into higher levels of perception.

[tcgopal]

The human mind is driven by habitual neurology, so much so it is afraid to step outside belief systems.  As a result, quite often it submits itself to slavery of such systems and resists taking on a free journey to find the truth.  Thus, it is driven by group psychology and the associated herd-mentality.  To free oneself from that slavery is essential to understand Natural Spirituality and the possibility of lasting peace.  

[tcgopal]

It is good to apply ourselves to the issue of afterlife because it helps to bring about a natural orderliness in our present life on earth.  In that direction, messages from Near Death Experiences can be of great help.

[tcgopal]

Our minds usually circle within a limited zone of awareness.  That leads to the formation of the ego and its domination.  Looking into the wider consciousness, we have the opportunity to release ourselves from the tyranny of the conventional mind.  Here some paranormal phenomena can be of great help.
