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?

Mark West

Mark West lives in Australia and like his fellow-countryman 'Sailor' Bob Adamson, he has attended numerous talks with Nisargadatta Maharaj in the 1970's. It is a sheer blessing that both Mark and Bob have been able to impart non-duality to all the rest of us on that background of direct personal contact with Nisargadatta. Moreover, they accomplish this in a straightforward and easily accessible manner, without complicating or mystifying elements.

In his 37-page booklet "This ever-present unqualified immediacy", Mark conveys the essence of non-duality in a kind of a hard-headed, simple and almost spoken-language style. There are no "sacred cows" in this text, no illusions to protect. I warmly recommend this booklet.

On Mark West's website, you will find a wealth of excellent material in the form of free audio interviews with Mark, as well as his blog named "Notes from Kings Cross". You are likely to find yourself amply rewarded by investing time in this website!

On the DVD "'Sailor' Bob - Pointers on Nonduality" that I have mentioned in the entry about Bob Adamson, you can also see Mark giving a few comments.

Finally, as I have mentioned in the entry about Nisargadatta Maharaj, Mark has also published the book "Gleanings from Nisargadatta".

  1. Presumably you're asking how people become "enlightened". Meditation, basically. Train the mind back to the original mind. non dual awareness
