"Atoms and mountains and oceans and light, all arising, dissolving,
arising again. The dance of form which is really the dance of
emptiness; a dance which is the beginning and end of all things.
In each moment there is creation and destruction, in each moment
a ne Kosmos arises and dissolves, leaving no trace. And this
continues endlessly, without beginning, without end." |

Roger
Linden teaches in London and Southern
England. The site contains a short essay,
a biography and a diary of meetings.
"Actually
it is consciousness that is mislabeled
as ‘me’, for the idea ‘me’ appears
in consciousness along with all else
that is known and from which there appears
to be a sense of separation. Consciousness
is the knower (me), whatever is known
and the process of knowing (seeing, feeling,
thinking, etc.)." |
Mooji -
born in Jamaica and currently living and
teaching in Brixton, London, Mooji was a
disciple of Sri Poonja. In addition to a
brief biography and gallery, there are numerous
dialogues and details of his satsangs and
retreats in Ireland.
" Water has no shape,
its nature is to flow. If you put it into
a vase it will take the shape of the vase.
In this cup, it has assumed the shape of
the cup. If poured into my cupped hands it
will take the shape of the hands. But water
has no shape. It is the same with the consciousness,
which is subtler than water. It similarly
has no form, but it assumes the form of whatever
concept it is poured into or identifies with,
but it will never be the form. It remains
ever its formless nature. " |

Tony
Parsons - There are extracts from
his books and meetings, including several
in audio. Also, details of talks (around
the UK and in Amsterdam, Munich and Paris)
and retreats in Wales.
"No one concept
or set of concepts can express enlightenment.
To attempt to share through words the
rediscovery and wonder of who we are
is as futile a process as writing a
recipe for plum pudding and expecting
someone reading it to be able to taste
it." |
|
His book, 'As
It Is' is in the list of recommended
books.
Alternatively, here is the link
to Amazon UK. |
Richard
Sylvester - influenced by Tony Parsons,
is now teaching in the UK. The site contains
an edited transcript of an interview
and extracts from his forthcoming book "I
Hope You Die Soon - Words About Non-duality
And Liberation" which is published
by Non-duality Press.
"In liberation
the story continues but now it is seen
that it is just a story. All the passions
of your apparent life are just stuff happening.
The conflicts, the loves, the struggles
for control and power, the victories and
defeats are simply phenomena arising in
oneness and falling away again with no
meaning at all."

Hope You Die Soon'. |
