In this book, Rupert Spira distills the message of all the great religious and spiritual traditions into two essential truths: happiness is the very nature of our self or being, and we share our being with everyone and everything. Drawing on numerous examples from his own experience, Spira demonstrates that to seek lasting happiness through objects, situations and relationships is destined for failure and disappointment, and skillfully guides the reader to recognize that we are already the happiness we seek.

In A Meditation on I Am, Rupert Spira contemplates the essential nature of our self before it has been conditioned or qualified by the content of experience. It is a poem, a prayer and a hymn of praise to the simple fact of being that is the source of the peace and happiness for which we long above all else.

The Heart of Prayer explores the highest form of prayer. The belief that we are a separate person, a tiny part of a vast world, leads us to project the idea of God beyond the world, at an infinite distance from ourself. As this person, we enter into a devotional relationship with God; we surrender to God.

Everyone has the sense of ‘being myself,' but not everyone knows their self clearly. In most cases, our sense of self is mixed up with the content of experience and, as a result, its natural condition of peace and happiness is veiled. Through investigation and analogy, the meditations in this collection take us back to our true nature again and again, until we begin to find our self naturally and effortlessly established there, as that. In time, experience loses its capacity to veil our being, and its innate peace and joy emerge from the background of experience.

The guided meditations in The Light of Pure Knowing were selected from hundreds that Rupert Spira gave over a period of three years, from 2011 to 2013. They are a deeply contemplative and profound exploration of the non-dual nature of our experience, and have the power to take the listener back to the source from which they arise. You will not encounter philosophy here, but a journey into the most essential and ever-present nature of our experience – pure Knowing, the truth of our own Being – free from the thoughts and feelings that the mind superimposes upon it.

The twenty-four yoga meditations in Transparent Body, Luminous World were transcribed and selected from several hundred guided meditations that Rupert Spira gave at meetings and retreats in Europe and the USA since 2012. The meditations explore the experience of the body and world as a continuously changing flow of sensations and perceptions appearing in, known by and made of Awareness. In this approach to meditation – which Spira calls the Tantric Yoga of Sensation and Perception – Awareness turns again towards the objects of experience.

¿Puede haber un descubrimiento más importante en la vida que darnos cuenta de que ya somos eso que anhelamos? En este libro, Rupert Spira destila con meridiana claridad el mensaje de las grandes tradiciones espirituales en dos verdades esenciales: que la felicidad es la naturaleza misma de nuestro ser, y que compartimos un mismo ser con todos y con todo.
