He offered no method, no system, no path to follow. He dissolved the worldwide organisation built around him, refused disciples, and insisted that truth cannot be handed from one person to another. For millions, his words opened something no other teaching could reach. For many others - sincere, intelligent seekers - he remained impossibly difficult to grasp.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThis book bridges that gap.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA complete, accessible guide to one of the most radical spiritual thinkers of the twentieth century.

It asks you to look - at the mind, at its patterns, at the gap between what you are and what you think you should be.
