At the Left Hand of God

Aghora, Book 1

De: Dr. Robert Svoboda

Narrado por: Dr. Robert Svoboda

The first book in the Aghora trilogy containing the teachings of Dr. Svoboda’s mentor, the Aghori Vimalananda. Written almost entirely in Vimalananda’s own words, it presents events from his life, tenets of his philosophy, and highlights from his spiritual practices. Designed partly to shock and partly to comfort, but wholly as an offering to his Beloved, Aghora is a picture of a man who was a riddle wrapped up in an enigma.

Magik in the flesh

True potency from the devotion ,discipline , love and transmissions of a master dedicated to Devi

Among the finest spiritual texts available!

This was an accidental discovery for me while looking for interesting audiobooks pertaining to spirituality. It’s impossible to stop listening once you start. The author, who is also the narrator, is simply phenomenal. Raw, rich, elegant, and direct… very much in the spirit of a true aghori. You can’t go wrong with this book. It’s a text book. I’ve followed the author ever since, and have become an absolute super fan. I only wish he releases additional titles soon!

Rare, Divine, Beautiful

Once I started the book I could not stop. It’s all I listened to over the past few days. As mentioned with some of the other comments about the book, it’s so amazing to get to digest something so rare and misunderstood as a spiritual practice in this way. It’s so clear, organized, and inspiring to hear something in detail of those who have lived it like this.

Holy Shit

This is the best book I’ve ever listened to or read other than Memoirs of a Geisha, but probably better… a must read for any spiritual aspirant. Wow.

Sublime, timeless.

Not only is this book unparalleled as a record of Aghora from a lived perspective, but it benefits immensely from the wonderful narration of Dr. Svoboda, whose lively and engaging way adds a dimension of charm to the experience. I hope he releases the second and third installments of this essential work. Well done.

Spiritual beings having a human experience

The idea that we are immortal spirits is fantastic. The story is hard to believe but definitely thought provoking. Enjoyed this a lot!

Required Reading for Being

This book takes you beyond what it means to be human and toward what it means to be eternal. It is both the most familiar and most transformative book I have ever read. If you are ready for your deepest truths and some hard facts, listen now. I advise listening while reading the hard copy or on Kindle for the most potent experience, and if you don’t have familiarity with Sanskrit, to more easily process the terms.

Timeless

Nothing else like it. Finally a comprehensive narrative about a misunderstood spiritual path. Spirituality is about what is real and exists which is not always gumdrops and rainbows. I read the paperback about 20 years ago and this text is becoming more and more relevant each year.

Amazing

Incredible. Mystifying. Real. Wonderful to hear Robert's own voice. There is no book like this, anywhere.

One of my favorites

The narration is good to an already stellar title. It introduces complex concepts explained clearly and understandable to a lamen. This is essential reading for people interested in esoteric and spiritual studies, and while extreme and sensational to western views in many places, it makes sense as explained by the author. I would highly recommend this purchase if you’re reading reviews because you're on the fence.
