The Ultimate Medicine
About this book
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj was one of the important spiritual teachers of the twentieth century. A realized master of the Tantric Nath lineage, he lived and taught in the slums of Bombay, India. A steady stream of students, Indians and Westerners, fortunate enough to discover Maharaj during his lifetime, came to sit at his feet in the small loft where he received visitors. In the tradition of Ramana Maharshi, he shared the highest Truth of nonduality in his own unique way, from the depths of his own realization. The profound yet simple words of this extraordinary teacher jolt us into awareness. Like the Zen masters of old, Nisargadatta's style is abrupt, provocative, and immensely profound. His terse, potent sayings trigger shifts in consciousness, just by hearing, or even reading them. Compiled during the last year of Nisargadatta 's life, The Ultimate Medicine provides advanced instruction for spiritual aspirants. Not for those who like their spirituality watered down, but for serious students seeking powerful antidotes to unawareness. Edited by Robert Powell, renowned spiritual author.
