Oneness
 Be As You Are
Edited by David Godman
People of different cultures, ages and levels of diverse spiritual paths came to Ramana to ask questions. Many people recorded his answers. I have read four excellent books containing many questions and answers. Two recurring themes are:
* Seeming contradictions are instead, Ramana's answers exactly appropriate to the level of understanding and the special needs of each unique person, and
* Ramana himself is unique. At 16, he reached self-realization suddenly, directly and thereafter, he was never without it. Godman began his Indian studies in 1976; he is past librarian of Ramana's ashram in India and former editor of The Mountain Path, a Ramana Journal. Reviewed by Roberta Beckman.

 Emptiness Dancing
by Adyashanti
Discovering our true nature could be called the discovery of emptiness - of the vast stillness and loving silence that lies beyond and within all that exists. Our lives are the dance of this emptiness as it flowers into form. This book and Adyashanti’s audios offer dynamic teachings that come directly from the emptiness and draw the open heart into profound realization. Reviewed by Andrew Macklem-Cross.

 I Am That
by Sri Nisargadatta Maharji
These words spoken with directness and lucidity reveal the experiencer not as the mind, but the self, the light in which everything happens. I Am - prior to the world, this body and the mind. I Am the sphere in which they appear and disappear. Reviewed by Andrew Macklem-Cross.

 Nothing Ever Happened
by David Godman
This is a fascinating and powerful three volume biography of a fully realized sage, Hariwansh Lal Poonja or Papaji as he is affectionately known. Vol. I includes stories of his early life in Punjab: absorbed in silence at age three and staying up late nights at sadhu camp. Vol. II looks at his life when he leaves his family to become a sadhu on the banks of the Ganges. Vol. III looks at devotees' awakening encounters with Papaji. This wonderful telling of the life of a rare jivamukta or liberated soul will sweep the reader into the winds of the infinite. Reviewed by Andrew Macklem-Cross.

 Loving What Is
by Byron Katie
Through the revolutionary process called “The Work” Byron Katie asks four questions that can change your life. These four questions applied to a specific problem enable you to see what is troubling you in an entirely different light. She says: “It’s not the problem that causes our suffering; it’s our thinking about that problem.” Contrary to our popular beliefs, trying to let go of painful thought never works. Instead, once we have done “ the work,” the thought lets go of us! At that point we can truly love what is, just as it is. Reviewed by Andrew Macklem-Cross.
