Climbing the Blue Mountain: A Guide for the Spiritual Journey

Rating:
Summary: Practical Spirituality at its best.
Review: For those following Easwaran's 8-point program outlined in his book, "Meditation," this collection of essays sheds wonderful new insights into the spiritual journey. For those not following it, this may well inspire you to. Easwaran has a gentle way of taking you by the hand and leading you through all that lays ahead once you begin the journey inward. And, while he doesn't hesitate to tell you that this is the heardest thing you'll ever do, he's so darn reassuring that you actually believe you can get there. These essays are filled with personal ancedotes and stories from the life of a man who has obviously arrived where we're all trying to go, and yet, still manages to sound as down to earth as any of us. As with all Easwaran's books, highly recommended.

Summary: Simple lessons, difficult practice, worth every moment.
Review: Sri Easwaran shed his body in October, 1999. His lessons will live with us forever. He told us that his greatest tribute as a teacher would be for all of us to continue learning and practicing his 8-point program. This book is just one of the fabulous guides to a life filled with meaning. Get it-read it-DO IT.
