This book is for those who want Illumination itself, not a description of it--and for those who want to know how to live it. 
This volume, THE AWARENESS OF SELF-DISCOVERY, is a companion to A GUIDE TO AWARENESS AND TRANQUILLITY. It will expand the themes presented in that book and permit a degree of insight into the not always easy, but requisite living of them... 
 This book is intended for those who want peace of mind and are prepared for it. Those who are prepared are those who are willing to leave old landmarks--willing to forsake ego and intellectuality. Those who do will find these words instantaneously effective. 
 All of us who have lived this philosophy have found that we are able to see the immediate end of much personal agony the instant we pull the rug from the under our former value judgments. It is our continual ''This is good and that is bad; I love this and hate that; this is valuable and that worthless; this, dangerous, that safe, etc.'' that precludes either a clear perception or a full enjoyment of the Perfect NOW.

Two Plus Two Equals Reality

A Synthesis of Science, Religion and Metaphysics by Legendary American Mystic William Samuel 
 There are Mysteries and Secrets contained in these pages, all of them related to the Divine Imprint already present in the reader's Heart.
 This book is dedicated to the carefree, joyful, triumphant Child within each of us.
 Much more than an academic compilation and comparison of ideas about reality, identity, Illumination, time and space...
 Much more than an imaginative theorizing about one's true identity, about life's perplexing mysteries... more than a commentary...
 THE CHILD WITHIN US LIVES! charts a practical and livable course through the labyrinth of the objective sciences and religions into the mysterious states of the new sciences and metaphysics... and, further, we are taken to the transcendence of such divisions in the discovery of our original nature, the Child within.
 Here is a working and proven metaphysics that does not decry the reality of matter, but insists that matter be understood as part of one's self-discovery in process. Samuel speaks to the primal nature of light and linear time and to the necessity of understanding them.
 Those on the path of self-discovery will appreciate this well written work that is filled with clarifying analogies that relate to transcending dualism and understanding the reason for this human experience.
 Many of the prophets have spoken of a mysterious Child and childlikeness to prevail in the end days of linear time -- This book is about that Child, the Unobstructed Spirit and the grand view which includes the rediscovery of simple subjectivism, a new mark in non-space, non-time, and the fulfillment of the Original Purpose for tangible life on earth.

The Child Within Us Lives!

In this tapestry of personal anecdotes interwoven with the wisdom of her humble and respected philosophical mentor, William Samuel, Sandy Jones shows us her own personal journey of discovering the child within.
Through stories of her childhood in California, to her life falling in love and raising a family in Aspen and back to California again, we are taken on an intimate tour of the joys and heartaches of living and the power of trusting in what is innate and true in each of us. We discover the wisdom of the child-like spirit seen through the eyes and experience of one who embodies that very spirit. 
With Sandy as our guide and William's words strung throughout, we remember what it feels like to be free and unafraid, like children running through sprinklers barefoot and laughing and falling down and laughing again. 
Barefoot at Heart is at once an autobiographical narrative, a conversation with life, a glimpse of a philosophy lived, and a love letter to the great mystery that holds us all. 
Sandy takes us on a secret path she has forged, past the huckleberries, through the brambles and into the wide open field of our own sweet hearts, and whispers that we can go there any time we like. And we pause, and look around and feel a new freedom and say, like Celeste from Sandy's own childhood record, That's the place for me.

Barefoot at Heart: The Alchemy of Love and the Power of Light

Sandy Jones

PURPOSE, SCOPE AND PROMISE Reader, I have discovered a peace of mind and tranquillity that are utterly beyond belief and with the discovery has come the ability to communicate it to others! By peace of mind I do not mean the ecstatic ebbing and flowing happiness of religion. I have discovered an unfluctuating, unchanging, permanent sense of well-being that transcends every human concept. I call it Transcendent Tranquillity. It is not new. It is the peace beyond understanding spoken of by the saints and sages throughout history. No, it is not new at all, but I have found it; and, miraculously, with the finding has come the ability to give it to others. Indeed, to the special few who want it and are willing to listen, I find myself able to speak of this Transcendent Awareness such that they are able to understand for themselves and be it! 
Listen: The purpose of this book is to give this Awareness of Tranquillity to you. More than that, this volume is intended to prove to the reader that the awakening to Reality and its experience of Peace does not, contrary to the popular belief among the students of metaphysics, require the difficult, step-by-step processes of metaphysics, education, experience and unfoldment. Instead, simplicity and honesty are its keynote. Tender, childlike simplicity and honesty are the hallmarks of Reality's Tranquillity. If this sounds presumptuous, I will make it more so. I tell you that the nearly effortless practice of the tender precepts spoken of in this work will open the reader's door to a tangible, practical, down to earth bedrock, unfluctuating Tranquillity such that nothing the world has to offer can prevail against it! 
This is not another idealist's vague promise of happiness; not another metaphysical system nor philosophic fantasy intended to explain away despair, disease and death! This is not another fanciful theory. These words are written such that you may prove them and see for yourself if they are honest. 
Tranquillity--call it Equanimity, Serenity or Peace, if you like--has little to do with education and less with religion. Even metaphysics, that esteemed (and disparaged) higher religion of the intelligentsia just coming into its own in the highest places of human authority even that metaphysics of the Absolute has little to do with the Transcendent Identity destined to survive the upheaval already begun; yet, the Reality which is its warp and woof is effortlessly available to the childlike, right here and now. How do I know? Because I have found it! I am it! It is I! The days have already begun when we shall see the world as it is presently perceived come tumbling about our feet in a strange sickness and inscrutable insanity. Within a personal concept of self, it is inevitable that we shall see what appears to be a mysterious mental madness eating away at the vitals of a society holding itself separate and apart from Reality. Indeed, soon to make its appearance under the beguiling label of individual and collective freedom will be a searing, drug-abetted, uninhibited and nearly unrestrained metaphysical upheaval of such masochistic proportions that it will lay bare, dismember and devour everything conventional and familiar. 
It is our inescapable obligation to help as many as are willing to discover, uncover and be the Tranquillity untouched by turmoil a tranquillity as effortlessly available as our own Identity. Those who find it are enabled to be passers-by, tall and untouched by the world. Those who find it are healed. --William Samuel
