Unfolding Now : Realizing Your True Nature through the Practice of Presence

The keys to self-knowledge and deep contentment are right here before us in this very momentif we can simply learn to live with open awareness. In The Unfolding Now, A. H. Almaas presents a marvelously effective practice for developing the transformative quality of presence. Through a particular method of self-observation and contemplative exploration that he calls inquiry, we learn to live in the relaxed condition of simply "e;being ourselves,"e; without interference from feelings of inadequacy, drivenness toward goals, struggling to figure things out, and rejecting experiences we don't want. Almaas explores the many obstacles that keep us from being presentincluding defensiveness, ignorance, desire, aggression, and self-hatredand shows us how to welcome with curiosity and compassion whatever we are experiencing.
