This book is one of the best Dharma books I have read in many years and it has transformed and clarified my understanding of the relationships between different Buddhist traditions. In a highly accessible, clear language and with gentleness Rob Burbea takes us to ever deeper levels of understanding, of letting go – all the way to the complete release of heart and mind. His approach, founded in his own practice and deep understanding, integrates traditional Vipassana-contemplations with other views and culminates in the understanding as found in Madhyamika-philosophy, but always in a very practical way. Layer by layer we discover ways of how our views, even the most subtle assumptions about time or awareness, limit our freedom and get an inkling of what it means to be free. This is not a theoretical book but a wonderful, practical, non-dogmatic meditation guide with plenty of instructions of how to practice different ways of seeing. Highly recommended for practitioners who are longing to wake up.
