3 books for your spirituality



How difficult it is to choose from the deck, sometimes. Especially if the deck is a huge, immense library, with a number of books that tends to infinity. Yes, because a treatise on the cultivation of aromatic herbs in the vegetable garden can also be very spiritual. Or a travel report. Or a recipe book from the world.

But somewhere you will have to start and you will have to stay on the present. So today, we offer you this triplet of books to enter the world of so-called spirituality.

1. Robert M. Pirsing, Zen and the art of motorcycling

For adventurers of feeling, of thinking, of being in the world:

The sense of research here falls into a reality of fatty oil, saddle skin, mechanisms to be known and relationships to take care of. This book is a story of travel and investigation. It teaches us that the Divine can be " in the circuit of a computer or in the gears of the change of a motorcycle with the same ease as at the top of a mountain or in the petals of a flower ".

Transforming what you do into art, caring for meetings and nurturing relationships. These are some of the key messages of this text that no publisher wanted to publish and that the author has been refused several times.

"[...] we should make a list of important things to remember and keep it safe for moments of need and inspiration".

2. Osho, the female mystery

For those who want to make peace with the masculine and the feminine who live inside each one.

      But why should a book that helps us make the masculine and feminine that inhabit us have a dialogue oriented towards the lunar, the Yin? Because it is from here that what Osho calls the New Revolution takes place. It is not a blind rebellion on the part of women to become virile and take on the roles themselves under which men have been imprisoned for years.

      Osho reveals the importance of feminine abilities, inner qualities of joy, kindness, receptivity, patience, listening. These are the qualities, the gifts to be sought beyond gender.

      "[...] The words" masculine "and" feminine "have meaning and have meaning only if they refer to the body and the mind, but there is something transcendent that goes beyond both: it is your center more deep, of your being. That essence is simple awareness, and it only asks you to be a witness and to remain perfectly alert: it is pure conscience! [...] "

      3. Eckhart Tolle, The Power of Now

      For those who are on the path to appreciating the here and now , the Power of Now was written by a man who in 2011 was defined by Watkins Review as the person who has the greatest influence on the spiritual plane on the entire globe. And if not this, one thinks, what other book could be called "spiritual"? Indeed it is. But in a very practical way. Tolle speaks to us of his mystical experience, of his awakening and extends a hand towards those who want to enter inside themselves, those who want to develop an inner discipline, those who want to stop complaining and start developing a proactive attitude.

      "[...] Every negativity is caused by an accumulation of psychological time and the denial of the present.

      Discomfort, anxiety, tension, stress, worry (all forms of fear) are caused by an excess of future and a lack of present.

      Feelings of guilt, remorse, resentment, resentment, sadness, bitterness and any form of forgiveness are caused by an excess of the past and an insufficiency of the present. Ultimately there is only one problem: the mind tied to time. [...]

      "[...] The pain you create now is always some form of non-acceptance, some form of unconscious resistance to what exists. At the level of thought, resistance is some form of judgment. On an emotional level, it is some kind of form of negativity. The intensity of pain depends on the degree of resistance to the present moment, and this in turn depends on the strength with which you identify with your mind. The mind always tries to deny the now and escape it., the more you identify with your mind, the more you suffer, or we can put it this way: the more you are able to honor and accept the Now, the more you are free from pain, from suffering, and free from the egoic mind. ] ".
