Je n'aime guère parler de ma personne ni divulguer certaines expériences. Gilles Farcet l'a pourtant obtenu en un singulier combat où il a su désarmer ma réserve, justement parce qu'il n'était pas armé. Enfin, jouer au jeu de la vérité est aussi un défi. Ce défi, j'ai accepté de le relever Denise Desjardins. Au fil de ce dialogue serré d'une densité poignante, Denise Desjardins (1923-2016) s'est livrée sans masque et a bien voulu analyser son parcours. Des groupes Gurdjieff à Svâmi Prajnânpad, en passant par de bouleversantes rencontres avec Mâ Anandâ Mâyi, Svâmi Ramdas et sa Sainteté Karmapa, de la vie d'artiste parisienne à l'existence de nomade sur les routes orientales, d'un anarchisme frondeur aux exigences et vicissitudes du mariage, de la confrontation avec ses abîmes à la paix des profondeurs, l'itinéraire d'une femme exceptionnelle, le défi d'un destin voué la quête de l'absolu. Augmentée de plusieurs entretiens et témoignages inédits, cette réédition d'un livre initialement paru en 1990 constitue l'hommage que méritait cette femme remarquable.

Radical Awakening
  • Language: en

Radical Awakening

At the age of sixteen, Stephen Jourdain experienced a radical awakening while contemplating (in the manner of a Zen koan) the famous Descartes statement "I think, therefore I am." As a result of this fundamental change in perception--and at that very moment--the essential basis of Jourdain's identity collapsed once and for all, as he realized the truth of what all of us essentially are: the fundamental "I" principle, or Consciousness.Radical Awakening is a collection of extraordinary dialogues between Jourdain and the well-known writer, Gilles Farcet. These spirited talks--provocative and highly original--offer the reader an exceptional vantage point into the nature of authentic spiritual awakening and its embodiment. Jourdain lives the gift of awakening in the most ordinary manner, clearly articulating both the reality and the myth of enlightenment through deep understanding and piercing discernment.

The Baul Tradition

This book traces the Baul Path, a Tantric spiritual tradition, from its earliest roots in the subcontinent of India, to its dissemination in the West in modern times. “Baul” – meaning “madcap” or “taken by the wind” – describes one who has a vision of reality so piercing & clear that they are called to live in a way that goes against the common grain: the safe, plodding life of the mainstream. In the East, for centuries, Baul bards & yogis wandered the dusty roads of Bengal singing & dancing with joy in praise of God. Their poetry-songs uplifted ordinary people, transporting all above the daily grind for survival & into a direct experience of the sublime. Sahaja is the hallma...

The Death of Religion and the Rebirth of Spirit

Social visionary Joseph Chilton Pearce’s indictment of cultural imprinting as the cause of humankind’s cruel and violent behavior • Refutes the Neo-Darwinist assumption that violence is inherent in humanity • Identifies religion as the sustaining force behind our negative cultural imprinting • Shows how infant-adult interactions unconsciously block the creative spirit We are all too aware of the endless variety of cruel and violent behavior reported to us in the media, reminded daily that in every corner of the world someone is suffering or dying at the hands of another.

The Death of the Mythic God

Is God dead? Jim Marion says that what has really died is our myth of God, our worn-out notion of the deity in the sky, separate from us, who intervenes in our lives only when petitioned strenuously. God still exists, but we need to update our interpretation of God's nature. The mythic sky God was never real, says Marion. It was only a concept of God, now outdated.The real God is in the human heart, within the world, operating as the engine of evolution. God grows us from within into ever higher levels of awareness.In a bold revisioning of contemporary spirituality, Marion, author of the acclaimed Putting on the Mind of Christ, shows us how to expand consciousness and follow the genuine path of Jesus and the world's mystics into greater inner development.
