With Polishing the Mirror, he gathers together his essential teachings for being and loving, here and now, in the eternal present. For those just starting on the path, this is a primer for living from the spiritual heart. For those already practicing it, is a reference point for daily life in the spirit.In this audiobook, read by coauthor Rameshwar Das, listeners will discover perennial wisdom, humor, teaching stories, and guidance into Ram Dass's own spiritual practices, including:- Bhakti YogaÑdevotion, opening our hearts to unconditional love- Practices for living, aging, dying, and embracing the natural flow of life- Karma YogaÑtransformation through selfless service- Working with fear and suffering as a path to grace and freedom- Step-by-step guidance in devotional chant, meditation, mantra, and morePolishing the Mirror is Ram Dass's invitation to experience who we are and why we are here, and how to become beacons of unconditional love.This unabridged audiobook includes four bonus tracks:- Pure AwarenessÑa guided meditation with Ram Dass- I Am Loving AwarenessÑa guided meditation with Ram Dass- An Introduction to Vipassana Meditation with Ram Dass- Sita RamÑkirtan chant music with Jai Uttal"This book is a blessing!

Ram Dass is one of the great sages of our time who can make us laugh, cry, and awaken!"ÑJack Kornfield, author of A Path with Heart"Ram Dass has been the most influential person in my own spiritual development. I treasure his wisdom as well as his spirit. Let his words in this book enter your soulÑfor my friend Ram Dass is divine love personified."ÑWayne Dyer, author of The Power of Intention

To be spiritually awake is to deeply feel your connection with the whole of life. The One of Us is an exploration of this sacred connection as it expresses through two human partners. In their first full-length audio-learning program, Adyashanti and Mukti present six sessions to help each of us-whether preparing for or currently in a relationship-to realize and honor this connection, to protect it, and to begin to move, speak, and act in alignment with the love that lives all of us.A Relationship Based in Truth and Supported by LoveWhat if a successful relationship was not about getting needs met but allowing each other the freedom to be who you are? What if the sole agenda of a partnership were to offer the greatest expression of love in that moment? Drawing from their own marriage and their years of teaching, Adyashanti and Mukti share what they consider to be the foundational attitudes and skills for a relationship "based in truth and supported by love." Together they discuss the shift from our conditioned, "me-centered" paradigm to a radically new way of relating not only to each other but to the entirety of our experience."Recognizing our connectedness of spirit-and becoming a living expression of that connectedness-that's what The One of Us is all about," explain Adyashanti and Mukti. Join them in these inspirational sessions to begin to bring forth the fullness of light and love that your partnership is waiting to unfold.Program Highlights:* How loves gives us access to truths beyond egoic structures* Who is "us" anyway? The paradox of autonomy and no separation.* Communicating from your core outward* Sincerity, patience, and intention: three keys to freeing ourselves from conditioned thinking and behavior* The void within as the doorway to awakening* Realizing our power of choice* The relationship between truth and well-being* Redefining the purposes of relationship* Getting out of the "grey zone" of unspoken truths* The five foundations for awakened relationship* How spaciousness leads to harmony* The difference between merging and oneness* The arts of listening, accepting, and nurturing* Knowing when it's time to end a relationship* The revolutionary power of seeing things as they are* Plus a one-hour interview with Sounds True founder Tami Simon, discussing the longing for deep partnership, managing conflict, and more

Nondual awakening—the liberating realization of oneness—is the pinnacle state in the world's great contemplative traditions. While the simple beauty of this teaching has captivated many modern spiritual seekers, the social conditioning of our culture often creates barriers for Western practitioners that even the most advanced Eastern masters have never personally encountered. With Radiant Mind, Peter Fenner—an expert in Eastern psychologies and longtime student of many Tibetan masters—offers you an effective, practical approach for Western students seeking to directly experience and cultivate the healing power of nondual awakening.The Complete Freedom of Unconditioned MindPeter Fenner refers to the state of pure presence as unconditioned awareness because it frees us from our cultural conditioning that creates the sense of separation and prevents us from realizing our transcendent selves. Drawing upon decades of experience as a nondual therapist and Buddhist scholar, Fenner demonstrates an intimate familiarity with the ego traps and unconscious beliefs that so often confound Western students. With gentle wisdom, profound insight, and a lighthearted presence, he guides you on your journey through each step on the road to enlightened consciousness.In his workshops, Peter Fenner has taught thousands of students how to attain a state known as the ultimate medicine, one in which we abide in tranquility, free from the pressures of our desires and fears. Now, this groundbreaking teacher brings you his unique blend of Eastern and Western wisdom on a full-length audio workshop for beginning and advanced practitioners.

Are you preparing for a major surgery? Recent medical research indicates that guided imagery is an effective way to maximize the body's healing resources and take the worry out of surgery.Martin L. Rossman, MD, presents Preparing for Surgery, a series of simple imagery techniques proven to benefit patients with quicker recoveries, fewer complications, less pain, and less bleeding after an operation. Includes three exercises to support a successful surgery and more rapid recovery.Suggestions for Working with Guided Imagery:
For your own safety and the safety of others, never listen to guided-imagery exercises while you are driving or operating dangerous equipment
A quiet, darkened place, or an eye pillow, may make it easier to concentrate
Try headphones or speakers if you have the choice and see which one you prefer
Get comfortable and feel free to move anytime to stay comfortable
Let your answering machine answer the phone, turn off the ringer, or unplug the phone
Tell your housemates that you'd like to be undisturbed for about 30 minutes, unless there is a genuine emergency
Taking some time to write or draw about your experience afterward is a good way to deepen your experience with your guided imagery.

As an analyst working with the dying, Dr. Clarissa Pinkola EstŽs has developed seminal methods to help ease the fear that can accompany the dying process. On The Radiant Coat, this bestselling author shares myths and stories first told at the bedsides of the dying to comfort them and their loved ones. For other cultures, Dr. EstŽs teaches, death holds no terror. It is in fact characterized as an ally, a wise and caring figure, leading departed souls through the starry night into the next day. This application of storytelling as a precious medicine for the terminally ill has attracted worldwide attention to the work of Dr. EstŽs. Fusing stories with useful psychological analysis, she removes the cloak of fear that surrounds the dying process. The Radiant Coat is a uniquely helpful collection of teaching stories, offered to help all listeners who seek to understand deathÑnot as the end of lifeÑbut as another beginning.Additional contents: Death as a companion; consciously preparing for death; the four tasks in crossing between the worlds; dreams of the dying; medical intervention; the split archetype of the doctor as both life-bringer and escort through the doorway of death. Stories include: Godfather Death, The Water Glass, The Radiant Coat, and more.
