Book Synopsis

In "Being Aware of Being Aware" by Rupert Spira, readers are taken on a profound journey into the nature of consciousness and self-awareness. Spira explores the fundamental question: Who or what is aware of our thoughts, emotions, and experiences?

By guiding us through a series of simple and direct contemplations, Spira invites us to inquire into our very own awareness. He helps us understand that awareness is not limited to a personal, individual self, but is our true self - the essence of who we are.

Spira's writing is clear, accessible, and deeply transformative. He skillfully unravels the layers of our conditioned beliefs and points us towards the ever-present awareness that forms the core of our being. With great clarity, he illuminates the inherent peace and happiness that arise when we recognize and abide in this awareness.

Through the book, Spira presents a practical and direct approach to uncovering our true nature. The reader is encouraged to let go of concepts and stories, and to relax into the simplicity of pure awareness. This shift in perspective opens up the possibility of living a life rooted in love, joy, and freedom, regardless of external circumstances.

"Being Aware of Being Aware" is a transformative exploration of consciousness, offering a profound inquiry into the nature of our existence. It is a book that serves as a guide, leading us home to the realization of our timeless and boundless self.
