Beschreibung

Eternal Self is a practical explanation of the power of Tantra Yoga, an introspective, spiritual science of Consciousness, to create a life of balance, harmony and joy. This book is the product of 50 years of practice, study, and teaching the science of Tantra Yoga, both in the United States and the Himalaya Mountains in Nepal and Northern India. While religion, philosophy, and even science tells you WHAT you should do to achieve this, Tantra Yoga shows you HOW. Through simple tools, such as breathing, concentration, meditation, and other practices, we expand our normally limited awareness to the spiritual-Self, the spiritual core of Consciousness within each of us. Eternal Self begins by exploring the mystery of Consciousness. It then shows how Tantra science shares the fundamental requirements of all science: experimentation, replication and verification. However Tantra explores reality, and in particular Consciousness, through direct introspective experience rather than analyzing material phenomenon. Yoga science understood both mind and matter as energetic structures thousands of years before modern quantum physics. Although Tantra Yoga is a spiritual science, it has more in common with modern science than with organized religion. Eternal Self outlines how each of us participates in this creative process although in contracted, limited ways. This is accomplished through the energetic body that is the underlying reality of our physical body, including the brain. The book shows that through the chakras and subtle senses we experience the energetic quantum reality as a see/touch objective reality. Through systematic meditative practices, we become conscious of these powerful energy centers and utilize them for personal and spiritual growth. The finest instrument we have for material and spiritual success is our mind, but it also prevents us from experiencing the spiritual-Self. Eternal Self presents a unique analysis of the mind as an energetic field consisting of thought-constructs as energy patterns. It maps the relationship of the spiritual-Self (soul) to the energetic Subtle Body involving the chakras and subtle senses, and the physical body and the objective reality. It recognizes that each individual mind is part of a greater energetic field consisting of all human thought that Carl Jung called the "e;Collective Unconscious."e; Eternal Self describes the four functions of the mind and the power of each to create knowledge. Our single most important personal skill is the ability to focus attention, to concentrate. Eternal Self clarifies the nature of attention/concentration and its impact on the mind. It describes the power of curiosity to intensify our focus, and the great damage that fear does to all levels of the mind and the ability to focus. Tantra science provides the method of transcendence, or mystical experience, but its practical utility and value lies in its transformational power to enhance intelligence, substantially increase emotional intelligence, and lead to spiritual realization. Eternal Self speaks to the fact that all organizations (political, economic, religious, social) are only as healthy and effective as the egos that lead them. The introspective tools and methods of Tantra science gently dissolve the ego issues that are the sources of imbalance, suffering and dysfunction in ourselves, and thus in our organizations, cultures, and nations. It provides a prescription to develop spiritual humanism through education by utilizing the powerful tools of concentration, stillness, and introspection provided by Tantra and other meditative traditions.
