For three thousand years, what is known generally as a nondual perspective has emerged in a variety of ways, housed in major religions, eastern and western philosophies, the declarations of random individuals, and, more recently, the findings of modern physics. The differences among these various presentations are staggering, making it difficult to realise they are all saying the same thing, but using different words. The traditional way of cutting through the confusion of the words is to acknowledge your own experience of life in the simplest way possible. This Summary of Existence is that very simple acknowledgment and one may find that it is a key to opening the essence of a thousand teachings.
