Product Description

In his hard hitting book, author Keith Loy refers to the spiritually awakened mind as being the true natural state of humanity. He draws deeply from his own life experience as he exposes many of the beliefs, teachings and distractions which he found to pollute the simplicity of spiritual awakening. With a little humour and a lot of boldness he speaks in the lay mans tongue, as he takes the uncommon risk of delving psychologically into the mindset of the average spiritual seeker, uncovering many reasons why they remain as seekers and not finders. He has written this book only for those who have finally reached that `crunch time' in their search, and now feel daring enough to leave behind the spiritual search, in favour of awakening with ease to their present Reality!
IN HIS OWN WORDS: - If we could only give up searching for the extraordinary - for the weird, the wonderful and the mysterious. If we could only come to our senses, attentive to the present, uniting our attention with life just as it is; then we would find much to our surprise, that the mystery which we have been seeking for all along - will no longer be a mystery!

An eye opener!
This book opened my eyes a lot and helped me to see, that rather than getting on with the practice of presence, I have been distracted by many various spiritual subjects (what the author calls a spiritual sideshow). The book helped me to let go of much baggage and inspired me to bring my search right back to simple presence and awareness of the now moment. He asks you to let go of authority, belief or path and what he calls 'second hand opinions and beliefs' when reading this book because it is strictly geared towards discovering reality or spiritual awakening within your own personal experience. The author gets very tough at times but is also very funny as he brings you deeply into his world, giving a helpful and detailed autobiographical story about the up's and down's of his own spiritual search and awakening, hiding nothing from the reader.

The overall message is, have you found what you are looking for? If not, do you only want to follow someone else's philosophy for the rest of your life without awakening ever happening for you? It's either philosophy or reality, that's the basic theme of this book. I found it to be inspiring, useful and funny, he's not afraid to say what he has to say, and he certainly doesn't hold back with the points he's trying to make, so there's a chance that it might hit off some spiritual nerves, but if you really do want to awaken and are sick of being led astray by others, then I think this could be the book for you.

Excellent

This is a wonderful book, it made me feel that awakening to spiritual reality is closer than I am lead to believe and just maybe I can wake up too. Attentive presence I keep reminding myself as I go about my chores. Thank you Keith

knocks most of the non-dual books for six
This is a funny, enjoyable and interesting book. The message is clear, needed and for anyone interested in non dual teaching an essential read. This man tells it how it is, pulls no punches, and knocks most of the non-dual books for six.
