Summary: Enlightenment and humor too- I give it an A+
Review: With each new chapter, Jaxon-Bear unveils another breed of ego cover-up, another mask, another method of subconscious madness. And yet, he gives us a way out.After all nine styles of "fixation" are revealed to be only self-hypnosis, role playing- the reader is then set free and may begin a life of true happiness, peace and mental quietude. The Enneagram of Liberation differs dramatically from the Enneagram books of Riso, Palmer and the like...in that here, the tool is used to LIBERATE instead of further identify with another brand of personality, to better the surface area of personality. The Enneagram of Liberation illuminates where the ego is stuck and believing itself to be real. When really, ego is mirage, nothing at all. The title is a signal alert to readers that unlike most books on the subject, this one is totally unique by freeing them from what they are about to learn, the very make-up of "who-ness" will be liberated. Readers will no doubt examine that who-ness, who they have adhered to so adamantly as self. Other books on the subject while informational, lean towards further identification with the points...as in, "How to be a better Eight." But now we see in Jaxon-Bear's context, that is comparable metaphorically with "How to better dress up the jail cell of imaginary confinement and suffering." Clearly, this is a new way of presenting a very ancient symbol, one meant to liberate, not to further enslave. (good quote alert:) "Here we have a radically different approach. Those interested in waking up shouldn't miss a page of the book's wisdom, truth, and humor. No one need pass a new age exam to understand. There are no practices, no mandatory mantras. Just a direct route to the core Truth... through self-examination." With his masterful insight, Jaxon-Bear places the sacred tool of the Enneagram within the context of enlightenment, Satsang, Truth, of waking up to a different kind of identity..no identification at all. He leads us so wisely and simply to what the Tibetans call Super-Consciousness, our own nature. He shows that Self awareness is possible in this life. (Enlightenment and humor too- I give it an A+)
