Tat tvam asi: That thou art - The Path of Fire According to the Asparśavāda (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798583067527)

"Tat tvam asi" (That thou art) is the most profound message of the Upaniṣads and constitutes the essence and the synthesis of the Advaita teaching: '"That, which is infinitely subtle, is the essence of all this universe] That is the Reality. That is the Self and That thou art, Svetaketu." "Please, Venerable Sir, instruct me still further." "So be it, my dear," said he' (Chandogya Upaniṣad VI.IV.3). In this book a relizative dialogue takes place between Antonio, a seeker of the ultimate Truth, and an Asparśin. Antonio has participated in every possible kind of experience without finding fulfillment, or any solution to his problems. In his search through the maze of samsaric duality he meets with Raphael, and, guided by him, Antonio enters into a process of realization which gradually transfigures his restless and dissatisfied ego into higher consciousness. RAPHAEL is author and Master in the Western Metaphysical Tradition as well as the Vedānta. He has written several books on the pathway of Non-duality (Advaita). He has also translated from the Sanskrit, and commented on, a number of key Vedānta texts. Raphael interprets spiritual practice as a 'Pathway of Fire'. The 'Pathway of Fire' is the pathway that each disciple follows in all branches of Tradition; it is the 'Way of Return.' Every disciple follows his/her own 'Path of Fire' in accordance with that branch of the Tradition he/she belongs to.' According to Raphael, what is important is to express through living and being the truth that one has been able to contemplate. Thus, for each being, one's expression of thought and action must be coherent and in agreement with one's own specific dharma. After more than 60 years of Teaching, both in oral and written format, Raphael has withdrawn into mahāsamādhi.
