NB. This blog will not be updated any more.
Instead, I invite you to look at the Facebook group I have started on the subject of Nonduality - Oneness - Advaita. Please click here to go there.


Introduction
As is well-known to many spiritual seekers, non-duality is a spiritual teaching with ancient roots. Often, it is also referred to with the Sanskrit term "Advaita".

The sole purpose of the blog is to share information and references to such material and websites as have been of great use to myself. I have in no way any desire to pretend to be an "expert" in this field of knowledge.

If you have questions, you are welcome to e-mail me at citron16@gmail.com

Non-duality puts an end to all spiritual searching. As Nisargadatta Maharaj pointed out, "the seeker is the sought". Why seek "liberation from bondage", when there is in truth no bondage and nothing to liberate?

Bob Adamson

Bob Adamson - often mentioned with the name "Sailor" Bob Adamson - hosts weekly meetings on non-duality in his home in Melbourne, Australia. A very crucial event in Bob's life was his meeting in the 1970's with the Indian advaita master Nisargadatta Maharaj. I strongly recommend both Bob Adamson's books and those DVD's where you can hear Bob and others speaking about non-duality. Here, non-duality is being explained in a straightforward and simple manner, without unnecessary, confusing or mystifying elements.

In 2010, Kalyani Lawry has published a book about and with Bob Adamson, titled "Only THAT". To me, this is a true gem of a book. In the first half of it, you can read the moving story of Bob's rather turbulent life and how he was brought to Nisargadatta og his teaching.

In the second half of "Only THAT", Bob explains about his teaching and his view of non-duality, through introductions accompanied by questions and answers. This is quite simply the best representation of Bob's teaching I have seen. Roughly speaking, I would say this book is all one needs to absorb Bob's teaching and go right to the very nitty-gritty of it.
"Only THAT" on Amazon 

The book "One Essence - Appearing as Everything" is another concise representation of Bob Adamson's teaching. It won't make much demand on your time to read through the 107 pages in a miniature format - and if you are only interested in the teaching and not so much in Bob's personal life, this is a recommendable alternative to "Only THAT".

Also, the books "What's Wrong With Right Now" and "Presence-Awareness" provide an excellent approach to Bob Adamson's teaching, with Bob's introductions og answers to questions:
"What's Wrong With Right Now" on Amazon
"Presence-Awareness" on Amazon

Additionally, DVD's with Bob Adamson are available. To me, it's a sheer pleasure to listen to Bob and others speak "live" on non-duality. For instance, I am enthusiastic about the DVD "'Sailor' Bob - Pointers on Nonduality". It's available for purchase at this website
