The Light of Pure Knowing

Thirty Meditations on the Essence of Non-Duality

By: Rupert Spira

Narrated by: Rupert Spira

The guided meditations in The Light of Pure Knowing were selected from hundreds that Rupert Spira gave over a period of three years, from 2011 to 2013. They are a deeply contemplative and profound exploration of the non-dual nature of our experience, and have the power to take the listener back to the source from which they arise. You will not encounter philosophy here, but a journey into the most essential and ever-present nature of our experience – pure Knowing, the truth of our own Being – free from the thoughts and feelings that the mind superimposes upon it. Those familiar with traditional teachings will recognise both the Vedantic approach, which, through reason and discrimination, separates out the eternal reality of all experience from its changing appearances, and also the Tantric approach, in which the entire realm of experience is known and felt to be shining with the light of pure Knowing.

Outstanding depth and clarity of instruction

Rupert Spira is the most skillful of nonduality teachers I have come across.

In this audiobook his instructions are very precise and gradual so there’s no chance of overlooking what he is pointing to.

He takes us as first being an “I” in the middle of experience, an observer to whom everything happens. He then skillfully points out to our essential nature but doesn’t stop there as many teachers do and in subsequent sessions helps us go beyond detached awareness to see how everything—all sounds, thoughts, sensations and other perceptions—are happening not only IN awareness but AS awareness.

Thus the term “non-duality”.

Everything arises in and as one seamless field of awareness, including our noticing of it or feeling separate from it.

But I’ve already said too much.

Get this audiobook and listen to it sequentially. And as its excellent companion, a book Presence by Rupert Spira, may also prove useful.
