Rating: Summary: Awesome Book on Tantric Buddhist and Occult Thought Review:
This is an awesome book on Tantric Buddhism and the occult under Buddhist thought, one grid of measurement in the sea of beneficial blueprints to view humanity and reality under. In this T. Lobsand Rampa goes into the idea of human body and the atomistic view in its relation to smaller and higher forms of matter, the etheric and magnetic fields, the aura and it's colors, the wave fields of telepathy, clairvoyance and psychometry along with other waves of of existence in all matter.
Written as a mail order course combined into a book format, lessons are conveyed on how to understand and read the auric sheath, it's colors, the ability to see the etheric and aura fields, escaping the limitations of the body through meditative practices beyond thought and conceptual thinking, intuitively feeling existence. In this are out of body auric experiences, the auric body travel while dreaming while attached by a psychic silver cord. How life as we know it is a school of suffering for growth towards higher existence beyond our incarnations of existence through reincarnation.
In order to grow psychically, one has to leave the highs and the lows of thinking in moodiness of euporhia and depression to that of the sound stable waves of inner composure and calmness. Our minds consist of electrical waves when kept level and balance exist for us in an inner peace with calm faith in the universal laws of karma where we can maintain a peaceful inner existence which induces our psychic abilities of telepathic hearing, clairvoyant visions and the psychometric ability to feel the vibrational frequencies of history in objects, places, things and people. And there is reading the Akashic Record which contains the knowledge of all history.
And T. Lobsand Rampa expounds on the act of giving, forgiving and letting go of anger and fear. This includes practices of breathing and balance of non-thinking that lets go of anger and emotional turmoils. To continue fear anger and anxiety is to run an engine in lower gear going the same speed.
There is mentioned self-hypnosis to the subconscious, to train our minds to do as we wish. The wisdom is in living in a peaceful state of kindness, tolerance, understanding and balance beyond all the petty concerns of the physical competition, of the constant clinging and aversions of the materialistic and ignorant. Generosity, agape, tithing to your causes are essential. I really enjoyed these spiritual principles. It makes me smile at the ignorance of the monotheists and Christians that condemn the occult, while these teachings endorse the only acts of receiving are through giving, an attitude and life of service to others.
There are no doctrines, no religious dogmas, but the endorsement to let people have their own philosophies, religions and doctrines, unless of course the reader is dogmatic about these teachings or any other he or she reads.
Rating: Summary: Simple wisdom Review: A book that came to me highly recommneded which I initally scorned as it seemed too simplistic (I was young and ignorant a few years ago, and thought I already possessed much more wisodm than the book could impart)- but I soon found it to posess a depth of wisdom and simplicity seldom found in texts dealing with the same subject matter. My only complaint with the book is with the sentence "softlee softlee catchee monkey.", which Rampa says is an ancient tibetan saying. For some reason I doubt the ancient tibetans were speeking broken accented english, but, if you can look past the occasional lame detail, it's pretty excellent.
Rating: Summary: You Forever Review: A complete course on Metaphysics by Lobsang Rampa. This edition has very nice quality.
Rating: Summary: Spiritually Enlightening Review: A practical guide into the realms of, what seems to others as, magic and beyond-belief, but in actuality - the Truth. A book to awake the sleeping soul of each and everyone who wants to delve into mysteries beyond the ordinary and everyday life and solve those which are unexplainable to sceptics even today.A BOOK FOR THE BEGINNER AND THE LEARNER OF THE MYSTICAL SCIENCE CALLED META PHYSICS.
Rating: Summary: You Forever Review: As you can see by many of the reviews, Dr. Rampa is a genuine Tibetan Buddhist/Surgeon. This book is a boon for those trying to understand 'emptiness'. He makes it quiet clear what it is in the first two chapters. He teaches you how to relax your body and your mind so that you can begin your adventure into the realm of the Greater Reality. There are no big words, no fancy words and no very strange words that don't mean a thing to us here in the West. This book is ideal for getting younger people into the realm of metaphysics and truth, a realm which is hard to perceive nowadays. All of his books are well worth reading because in them and in "You Forever" he gets right down to the straight stuff, the right stuff, to gain enlightenment. You do not need to abandon loved ones or live in the wilderness nor do you need to give away all of your possessions. Dr. Rampa is the missing link to all the other Buddhist writings out on the market today. Dr. Rampa makes things easy. All you need to do is work for them with practice, practice, practice.
Rating: Summary: GREAT Review: HAVING PUT INTO PRACTICE, methods mentioned in the book, I recommend it to those that want to improve their lives.Especially the section on the power of the mind.
Rating: Summary: left me a little peeved... Review: I really had high hopes for this book, but towards the end the author's self-righteousness got pretty annoying. Expect to get insulted if you are a vegetarian. Although a lot of good material appears in the book, I felt like I was being judged by the author even as I was being told not to judge others. It just didn't give me a good feeling by the time I finished.
Rating: Summary: I love this book Review: I think this is a wonderful book and throughly recomend reading it to anyone interested in, Psycic abilities, psycic touch, seeing Aura's and Clarivoyance. For anyone searching for inner peace in this world of hectic work and noise, very well written and thought provoking, this book would go very well beside William Hewit's Psycic development for beginners. If I could recomend an order for reading, I would suggest,William Hewitt's book on Pchchic Development followed by T. Lobsang Rampa and most anything by ted Andrews.
Rating: Summary: It is not an easy reading Review: Take your time. Dont read it in one day. It migth take you a entire live. Belive in it. Its true. And if you want results work hard. Dont spect to astral travel if you smoke 20 cigarettes a day. See you
Rating: Summary: Read this book now! Review: You Forever was written some years ago now, in the 1960's, preceding much of todays "new age" literature. Whereas a book such as The Celestine Prophecies deals with these issues in a parable form, Lobsang Rampa approaches subjects such as astral travel, telepathy, and karma from a teachers point of view. If you've become aware of your spirituality but need more practical guidance then this book is for you. And ignore the reviewer who says Ugh they still print this crap! As a result of this book I have learnt to travel in other dimensions and much more, changing my life for the better a hundred times over.
