Publisher's summary

We live in a world defined by duality, yet our true essence remains nondual. "Being in the world, but not of the world" encapsulates this profound truth. This Glorious Dance invites you into a nondualistic and paradoxical exploration of life, challenging conventional views of existence with piercing insights and whimsical musings.

Touching on nuanced experiences of separation like anxiety, depression, unforgiveness, daily challenges, and even death, Seye Kuyinu masterfully uses vivid examples and playful inquiries to scrutinize science, religion, and philosophy. This examination urges a reevaluation of widely accepted beliefs and theories, suggesting that these perspectives, often revered as sacrosanct, may be simple interpretations of a much more intricate, unified, non-separate, yet beautiful dance of existence.

This book probes deep into the nature of duality-good and evil, beautiful and ugly, love and hate, light and darkness, life and death-proposing that true understanding transcends these conventional dichotomies. Its apparent goal is to explore who we are, what we are, and what all of this is. This is an invitation to perceive life not as a sequence of random events but as a beautifully orchestrated dance. It encourages listeners to transcend their preconceptions, discover the music in the mundane, and realize their role as an integral part(and whole) of the universal melody.

You may find that nothing was ever wrong with you or the world. Irrespective of what anyone may have made you believe.

This Glorious Dance is an analogy used throughout this book, representing life's intricate play. As we clearly perceive this dance, we recognize ourselves as the One dancing. Dancing is like pain and pleasure. Dancing as good and evil. Dancing as resistance and play. Dancing as poverty and wealth. Possessing nothing but owning everything.

I was hooked

Loved it! So good! Definitely got me thinking! I highly recommend! 10/10! great job Seye

Very thought provoking! Loved it!

As a busy mom of two rambunctious boys, I don't have much time for navel-gazing. But "This Glorious Dance" stopped me in my tracks and made me really think about life's bigger questions in a totally new way.
At first, I was a little put off by all the philosophical big words about "nondualistic" this and "conventional dichotomies" that. But Seye Kuyinu draws you in with vivid examples and amusing pop culture references that felt super relatable. Whether discussing anxiety or perceptions of the world, his insights encourage you to challenge your beliefs about pretty much everything - good vs. evil, life vs. death, even who you really are.
While some parts went over my head, the core message of finding beauty and meaning in life's messy, mundane "dance" really struck a chord. In our hectic, divisive world, Kuyinu offers a wise reminder to look beyond surface distinctions and negativity to the profound interconnectedness underlying it all.
Was it life-changing? Maybe not. But this quirky book provided some much-needed food for thought and fresh perspective during the daily grind of work, chores and family chaos. For a philosophical reset, I'd recommend giving it a whirl.

Lots of philosophical answers

Ever wondered who you are and what you are doing here and how the world perceives you? This book helps in discovering it. There are several analogies and quotes from various sources to navigate this question for you.

See the world and yourself in a different way.

Seye Kuyinu challenges you to think about the basic why and who you are and why you perceive the world the way you do. Using analogies and quotes from scripture, philosophers and even pop culture, he walks you through visualizing the world from a different perspective.
I recommend the audio version as the smooth female voice allows you to focus on the imagery of his words.

A unique, thought-provoking look at life

This is a unique, thought-provoking study of who we are as humans and the overall meaning of life. It asks many big questions and uses fields such as science, religion, and philosophy, to try to answer them. This includes the use of analogies, pop culture, and various examples. It's worth checking out for something different.
