'Light, if is goes in search of darkness will find its absence.' Ramesh is truly a rare light. Rather than dispelling darkness he helps us awaken to understanding that darkness is merely an illusion...a mirage. With astonishing clarity he lifts us out of the morass that is our conditioned thinking and points us to the Truth that is masked by our ego. Through 24 dialogues between the Jnani (Enlightened Master) and a disciple, we are allowed vivid insights into the nature of God, alienation, Love, Joy and BEING. This is a book for the serious spiritual seeker. it point to the most basic of all facts: We are not what we think we are... we are much, much more.

The Final Truth is one of the most complex and rewarding of Ramesh's written works. It may well be the most comprehensive look at Advaita currently in print. It takes us on a rich and vivid journey from the arising of 'I AM' to the final dissolution into identification as pure Consciousness

The Final Truth: A Guide to Ultimate Understanding

Balsekar, Ramesh S.

Religion & Spirituality

A rare peak into the heart of the guru-disciple relationship through a series of letters between the renowned Advaita Master, Ramesh S. Balsekar and two of his "ripest" disciples. Ramesh reveals himself to be a Living Master who sparkles with wit, compassion and wisdom as he undertakes the impossible task of putting into words that which is beyond the mind's understanding. This is a much anticipated reprint of a long out-of-print title.

A Duet of One is a translation and interpretation of the most touchingly beautiful of all the Advaitic texts. It provides us with an illuminating and in-depth look at the nature of duality and dualism. In this book Ramesh reveals himself as a spiritual Master for the modern age. His insightful commentary unlocks the beauty and the mystery in this ancient text. He points us to the Understanding that is the true nature of us all.

Duet of One: The Ashtavakra Gita Dialogue

Ram Tzu says, 'Ram Tzu is accessible from many levels of misunderstanding. 'Serious students of enlightenment are in for a wild ride with this little book. The ironic appeal of the subtitle 'For The Spiritually Advanced' barely hints at how little Ram Tzu is impressed by individual spiritual achievement. The 97 free verse poems in No Way are incredibly funny, but for seekers they may also seem paradoxical, heretical, penetrating and insightful. If you re lucky, you ll recognize yourself in its pages - it s good to see when you ve been taking yourself a little too seriously. One minute you ll howl with laughter at people s pretenses, and the next you ll squirm self-consciously as Ram Tzu gleefully points out that you, like the fabled emperor, also wear no clothes. This widely quoted book is guaranteed not to produce any 'self-improvement' in you at all. It has original line drawings by Ted Kingdon, and in Wayne Liquorman's Introduction, he claims not to know who Ram Tzu really is, but don t you believe it.

No Way: A Guide for the Spiritually "Advanced"

Ram Tzu

A worthy successor to I AM THAT Ramesh's most accessible and easy to understand book. An excellent place to start or end your search. It is highly recommended both for the newcomer to Advaita and the more knowledgeable student of the subject.

Consciousness Speaks: Conversations with Ramesh S. Balsekar

His words resonate with the raw power of one who genuinely KNOWS of what he speaks and writes. Ramesh teaches that all there is is Consciousness. Like his guru, Nisargadatta Maharaj, before him, his sole purpose is to constantly remind us that the sense of separation we feel as individuals is but a thin veil, an illusion. What we truly are is nothing other than the Infinite...God...Christ...Tao...Consciousness. This book is offered as a daily source of inspiration for those who find themselves on the path to fundamental understanding. It contains the most ancient wisdom set down in a new and insightful way by a true Master of the modern age.

A Net of Jewels: Daily Meditations for Seekers of Truth

Kingdon, Ted

Starbuck, Gary

This book is a look into the heart of the Universe. It is simple and profound. Too long and redundant by far and yet too short to even begin to cover its subject. You might think that it is attempting to describe the indescribable but you would be mistaken. Ramesh, out of infinite compassion for the plight of the seeker, presents here a series of pointers, gestures towards a Truth that is omnipresent and yet unseeable.

Ripples

Ramesh Balsekar

This book consists of transcribed dialogues from the last several years at Ramesh's home in Bombay. Ramesh answers questions on an encyclopedic range of topics with breathtaking clarity and a loving Presence. Whether speaking on life as a movie, Shiva-Shakti, free will or concepts of enlightenment Ramesh constantly reminds his listeners that there is no personal action or individual doer. That all actions are the impersonal functioning of Consciousness. This is a 'must' for every serious student of Advaita and an indispensable companion volume to 'Consciousness Speaks.' Includes thirteen new photographs. Appendix I contains devotional letters to Ramesh.

Your Head In The Tigers Mouth

Bardo, Blayne

Consciousness is all there is. So 'who' is to know or seek 'what'? All there is is the impersonal functioning of Consciousness, or God, reflecting within Itself the totality of manifestation. Live life making decisions and accepting the consequences as if you have free will knowing it is Consciousness seeking, doing, living deciding... Ramesh Balsekar is an awakened sage whose long life has been devoted to Ramana Maharshi and whose final Guru was Nisargadatta Maharaj. He perfectly reflects both East and West-born and raised in Bombay, India, thinking and speaking in English, student of Sanskrit and translator of the Bhagavad Gita, intimately familiar with the Taoist and Chan classics as well as the new paradigm (Consciousness is all there is) which has emerged from quantum mechanics. Poignantly clear and precise and delightfully, humorous, his teaching makes life simple.
