Light
About This Book
Considered as the most important book after Autobiography of a Yogi , this book narrates the Spiritual Journey of Guruji. It also contains the life of his guru, Maharshi Amara, who spent his entire life working for the welfare of this world with the Light Beings in the higher planes known as Rishis. The book clearly explains many Spiritual Truths and the real meaning of Guru, Ashrama, Sanyasa, Vairagya, Meditation, Astral Travel, Samadhi, Energies, the New Age, Pralaya and many unknown and intriguing facts never published before, making it one of the most relevant books of current times. A must read for every sincere seeker of spirituality.
What You'll Learn
• Understand light as a spiritual reality: the distinction between light as a metaphor for understanding, light as a physical phenomenon, and light as the subtle luminosity that the Vedantic tradition identifies as the most direct experiential form of the divine — and why this third understanding is the one that the spiritual practice described in this book is designed to access
• Grasp the jyoti brahman teaching: the Vedantic understanding that the divine is fundamentally self-luminous awareness — that God is not an object that can be seen in a light but is itself the light by which all seeing occurs — and what this implies about the relationship between the practitioner and the divine
• Recognise the light in meditation: the specific quality of inner luminosity that appears in meditation as concentration deepens, how to recognise it and sustain it, and how Krishnananda Guruji understands the relationship between this meditative light and the divine light that the Vedantic tradition identifies as the ground of all existence
• Learn the practices for developing light awareness: the specific meditation approaches, the devotional practices, and the daily life orientations that cultivate the capacity for sustained recognition of the inner light — with particular attention to the practices for maintaining this recognition through the challenges of ordinary life
• Appreciate the devotional dimension: how Light balances philosophical precision with genuine bhakti (devotion) — Krishnananda Guruji's understanding that the intellectual recognition of the divine as light must be complemented by the heart's devotional response to that recognition if the understanding is to deepen into genuine realisation rather than remaining a philosophically interesting idea
