Publisher's summary

The life of Jesus offers each one of us a map to the direct realization of our eternal and divine nature. On Resurrecting Jesus, Adyashanti excavates the deep, mythic underpinnings of the Gospels to show how we can all find in the story of Jesus the spark for our own spiritual unfolding. Jesus crossed all of the boundary lines that separated the people of his time because he viewed the world from the perspective of what unites us, not what divides us. In these intimate sessions, Adya invites us to consider the man known as Jesus as a model of enlightened engagement with the world. He examines the story of Jesus from his birth to the Resurrection to reveal how the central events in Jesus' life parallel the stages of spiritual awakening that we may be called to experience ourselves. Adya concludes by illuminating five central archetypes of the Jesus story - Peter, John, Mary Magdalene, Judas, and Pontius Pilate - and the key insights they hold about the way we might relate to the spiritual impulse within. "Jesus symbolizes the spiritual mystery of each one of us," explains Adya, "and points us toward the radiance available right now - the grace through which we realize that we are each sons and daughters of a living God." Resurrecting Jesus will inspire you to pour yourself fully into "the transmission of infinite love" that he represents - to discover how that love revolutionizes our lives and our world.

Brilliant book!

This book helps make the Jesus story accessible to everyone and everyone should read it.

A pearl of great price. Transformational. The best kind of knowing.

Do you know nothing of Jesus Christ beyond what you’ve heard from the world outside of you? Or have you had your own personal experience/awareness of Jesus Christ and you want to deepen and expand that? If so I invite you to set aside everything you know and engage this book with an open heart and a beginner’s mind. Come willing to discover something you never knew before. Come have new life breathed into your experience of yourself and your relatedness to the world around you.

Captivating and enlightening

I have read other titles by this author and this is my favorite. A very thought-provoking viewpoint that I feel is valuable to Christians and non-religious types alike. It has been years since I listened to this title and I still think about it often.

my kind of stuff

echoes my journey the way it happened to me and how i found and talk with god

Radiant Interpretation

Would you consider the audio edition of Resurrecting Jesus to be better than the print version?

I have not read the the print version, but I am glad my introduction to Adyashanti's writings was through the sound of his own voice.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Resurrecting Jesus?

It was a joy to connect to Adyashanti's interpretation of the Jesus story as one with deeper meanings than were ever brought forth in any church group I have attended. Being a lover of Zen and Buddhist philosophy, this work was right up my alley as it tied the histories and philosophies of the East with Jesus' own message and the writings of his disciples. Highly recommended.

highly recommended!

thank you adyashanti for a retelling of the Jesus story in a way that is accessible to Christians and non-cristians, it is universal!

Life changing

This was an amazing adjunct to my spiritual formation program. I fell upon it and it highlighted everything I’m learning. Aydashanti has a beautiful and calm way of teaching and it pulled everything together. I highly recommend this audible to all. It’s a universal teaching for all wisdom traditions.

Outstanding

This book gave me a new and deeper way of interpreting the Jesus story, and Adyashanti’s narration was enthusiastic. He’s an amazing storyteller. I would recommend this book to anyone who is searching for truth and a more personal experience of the Devine.

Excellent. Great coverage with zen balance.

Great depth of coverage and balance with zen perspective. Really great interpretation with emphasis on spirituality and mythology /archetypes without religion specific dogma or elitist exclusionism. Home run! Really went to the core of the teachings n makes them accessible to all. Will listen repeatedly for deeper absorption. He gets it.
