The ACADEMY announces a Book launch titled “EARTH”

 

A book that helps to understand what LIFE really is.

 

Available NOW on www.acadun.com

 

 

 

This BOOK ‘EARTH’ IS THE FOURTH VOLUME in the series ‘Understanding life’. The first three are ‘FIRE’, ‘AIR’ and ‘WATER’. The book contains pointers that he has shared to all men and women in the form of answers to questions that were communicated to him from all over the world.

 

Man is deluded into believing that he is the doer, and from this belief springs the guilt and misery of personal responsibility. The book offers help which once given results in peace that man so desires.

 

Each one of these answers was given as part of a specific question to ‘life’ issues. Every answer goes to the heart of life itself irrespective of our particular circumstance.

 

Dr. Shankar, by his own insistence, is not a teacher and has no pupils; nor does he give advice. His words, arising from the infinite source of all that IS’, reveal things as they are in the nameless ‘HERE’ and the timeless ‘NOW’ –and not as a mental opinion.

 

Life received our birth.

Life accommodated our birth within it.

Life celebrated our arrival.

Life keeps celebrating our presence.

Life reminds that questions are illusory.

Life gifts continuously with every breath.

Life prepares everything.

Life shows its mysteries cannot be questioned.

Understand yet the ego questions.

Dr. Shankar.

 

Some questions (>1000) in this book:

 

Q: I feel so stuck in my life, and I don’t know what to do with it.
S: Life is unstickable. Everyone is stuck with their expectations, that is all.


 Q: I do want to make my own money somehow.
S: There is nothing called own money. Everything belongs to existence. It comes by to everyone exactly to his or her needs. Never less and never more, acceptation of what comes by brings in bliss.

Q: And whatever I start to do, I feel like a failure and that I will never make it.
S: Nobody is the doer, so you cannot be a failure, nor can anyone for that matter. The doer is one: recognize him. Could the real doer be a failure?

Q: The feelings in my body are so strong, and the mind is thinking all kind of negative stories, shall I just go on and watch it? I feel so totally helpless with no orientation,
could you please say something?
S: The body is dead as it is and can have no feelings of its own. The mind is chaos, so watch all this, as you would see a movie.

Comment: CD ‘Comfort’

Elisabeth, Netherlands

Why is it that man is unable to be comfortable right through his life? A fundamental factor which is present in anything which man wants to do is a concept of comfort. Everything the mind likes, it wants to have more of it and that is its function. It is a natural phenomenon of life and life will expand more and more and more.  It is his mind where man is trying to be comfortable, not with the moment where he is alive. The moment you become comfortable with the moment, you will always be comfortable. Be comfortable with the moment, and not what is in the moment. The moment is without any opinion, any conclusion, any interpretation or any expectation. Once you are comfortable with the moment, you are comfortable eternally. Such a clear satsang and I am so thankful for the understanding.

 

Comment: CD ‘To be aware and to know’

Elisabeth, Netherlands

If you are aware, you would be aware that everything is simply moving. An ego will only know, but he will use the word ‘I am aware’, but aware man mistakes for the word ‘known’. There is a difference between ‘to be aware’ and ‘to know’. If one becomes aware of life, it is a phenomenal happening to him, the understanding has brought forth an awareness and alertness to life. An ego can neither be alert nor aware, it is not its function.  Just understand you are in the mind when you use the word aware. It is very difficult for man to understand his daily life is illusory.  The conditioned mind convinces man that his daily life is far from being an illusion. We carry a belief of what real is and what illusory is. What a painfully beautiful sharing from Dr. Shankar. Your statement, ‘the depth of understanding reflects the quality of speech and movement’ made me ponder about movement, how tiny a movement can be, invisible actually, and how forceful a movement can be. Somehow that understanding ‘moves’ me. To be aware and be alert to this movement of life. Thank you ever so much.
