The Most Direct and Rapid Means to Eternal Bliss

Rate this book
In this book there are practice instructions for seven different methods of meditation including: 1. The Awareness Watching Awareness Method. 2. The Abandon Release Method. 3. The Eternal Method. 4. The Infinite Space Method. 5. The Loving All Method.

For thousands of years humans have been stuck in the same pool of inward unsolved problems. Thousands of years ago humans had the problems of suffering, sorrow, anger, fear, violence, conning, cheating, lying, death, etc. Today humans have the problems of suffering, sorrow, anger, fear, violence, conning, cheating, lying, death, etc. All of those problems have a single cause. In this book the cause of the lack of progress and the solution that actually works is revealed.

There is a secret, a missing link, a vicious circle, that is keeping humans stuck in the same pool of unsolved problems. That secret, that missing link, that vicious circle is revealed in this book. How to break free of that ancient human trap is also revealed in this book.

The solutions taught in the past have failed. Not even one in a million humans has been freed from all suffering and been established in absolutely perfect infinite-eternal-awareness-love-bliss by the solutions that have been taught in the past.

It is possible to be free of all sorrow and suffering and to experience absolutely perfect infinite eternal joy here and now in this lifetime. It is possible for all humans, not just a few humans. There is a rapid means to infinite bliss. That rapid means is taught in this book.

Whatever spiritual path you are on, this book will be a great help. The problem of the ego distorting, distracting and keeping theattention directed outward is a problem shared by all humans, whatever path they are on. The ego's tricks have seldom been looked at in spiritual literature. The ego's tricks are revealed in this book. How to put an end to the ego's tricks is also taught in this book, making this book a unique and immensely valuable contribution.

This book is a great help to all humans, including those who are not on a spiritual path, because the most direct and rapid means to end suffering and sorrow and to live in awareness-love-bliss, is of benefit to all.

For human consciousness to be transformed something new must be introduced. This book introduces something new into human consciousness. It is rare that a spiritual book goes into detail revealing the tricks the ego uses to avoid liberation. The Most Direct and Rapid Means to Eternal Bliss is such a rare book. Step-by-step instructions in how to put an end to the ego's tricks are given in this book. This book shows how to directly experience infinite-eternal-awareness-love-bliss in this lifetime. This book contains a detailed description of the difference between the True Self and the imposter self. Detailed instructions in how to directly experience the True Self are given in this book.

Of the thousands of spiritual books you could purchase, The Most Direct and Rapid Means to Eternal Bliss is the best first choice. This is the book that created a spiritual revolution that is continuing to transform all human life. The direct experience of infinite-eternal-life is available to all humans. There is a fork in the road. One road leads to ideas, beliefs, concepts and opinions. The other road leads to Direct Experience. This book shows the difference between these two roads and how to choose the road that leads to eternal-perfect-love-bliss in this lifetime.

This book is a new doorway for humanity. On a combination lock that you have been unable to open it is not the numbers on the dial that are new. It is the combination that opens the lock that is new. The more than fourteen hundred sentences in this book reveal the combination that opens the lock. On the other side of the door is eternal Life-Love-Bliss.

This is a fascinating book.

I read it not quite as intended, simply because a good friend recommended it.

One would suspect that this is a sincere path, which may work for some. In my own case I simply feel that ACIM is more to the point for me, so I don't get overly excited about yet another path, but the book seems very helpful in the way it takes the reader by the hand, and helps us bust through the walls of preconceived notions.

Tüm hayatımın EN ÖNEMLİ kitabı. Açık, net ve kesin. Aydınlanmak, kalıcı ve gerçek uyanış için bu kitabı uygulayabilecek miyim, bir milyon uyanış yolcusundan bunu uygulayan bir kişi olacak mıyım bilmiyorum. Bu yolu seçip tatbik etme potansiyeli olanları Michael Langford bu şekilde oranlıyor. Kitaba göre egomuz bir şekilde bir yolunu bulup bizi bu tek, gerçek ve kalıcı aydınlanmadan alıkoyuyor. Hepimiz bu yolda büyük tuzaklara düştük ve düşüyoruz. Kitap hilekâr egonun müthiş kapasitesini gözlerimiz önüne sererek, güçlü özgürleşme arzusunu motor güç olarak kullanıp kalıcı, kesin aydınlanmanın yolunu öğretiyor.

Kitaptaki öğretiyi tatbik etmek %99.9'umuz için söz konusu olmayacak. Bunu kuvvetle, kesin olarak istiyorum ve kendim için başka, daha mühim bir görev olamaz diyorsanız KESİN OLARAK bu doğru yol. Bunu biliyor, anlıyor ve iliklerinizde hissediyorsunuz. Peki bu yola çıkacak mısınız?

A serious, no nonsense guide to awareness and awakening. For serious spiritual seekers, for sure. Essential, put away your other spiritual books!

I read the 6th Edition: "The Most Direct Means to Eternal Bliss". I do not believe this book is for everyone at any moment in their life and the author stating that this is the only book you need, does the literature disservice. The religious and spiritual text I've read increased my confidence in the ideas presented. With that said, if this is one of the first spiritual books you've read or the only time you've attempted to look inward, I don't believe you will gain much. Because of the directness, I believe that either you will be completely deterred by such a difficult task as the one presented (with your ego being skeptical, as the text says it will), or you will be enthralled and create "spiritual intellectuality," rather than having a direct experience.

The Most Direct and Rapid Means to Eternal Bliss, is exactly that. Although quite methodical in its approach to Absolute Truth, Enlightenment, Awareness, etc., the content is rich in wisdom and unless you have a Spiritual Teacher guiding you, some of it might go right over your head (I had a lot of questions). Excellent book; though, again, quite methodical which at times became a little monotonous.

Had some very strong messages in the beginning of the book however he didn’t really speak to me as I continued reading. I will continue with more direct writings from Sailor Bob, Rupert Spira or Francis Lucille…

50 sayfada anlatılacak konuyu, aynı cümleleri tekrar tekrar kurarak anlatan dev bir tencere temcit pilavı. Yazarın anlattığını ve uyandırmaya çalıştığı konu, önemli ve dikkat verilesi. Fakat kitap, bunu anlatmakta oldukça başarısız.

One of the best books ever written giving a practical nondual teaching and several methods of direct inquiry or direct abiding. The book takes the 'awareness' teachings approach and has for its main practice that of directly resting in/being aware of 'awareness' itself.. that's it. It substitutes the word 'awareness' for 'consciousness' in places. Secondary approaches are also given which may instead allow the mind to rest/stop, and thus approach nondual awareness indirectly.
This book has been one of my core 'teachers' for a number of years, and I go back to it on occasion.
Highly practical and highly recommended.
