Customer Reviews

Another enjoyable read from Satyam Nadeen

I remember reading this book a few years ago and just feeling really good afterwards. It is light mind freeing material. Both this and his first book 'From Onions to Pearls' are fun reads with a nice free feeling of spirtual depth. Not for everyone, but I liked and would recommend them both.

Get onboard the Consciousness train...

The author declares that we are in the beginning stages of a monumental "Shift" in human consciousness and awareness. He states that more and more of us are awakening to the supreme beatitude of knowing who/what we really are: the awareness in which all things rise and fall,i.e. consciousness itself! I agree with his thesis that a transformation is apparent and ongoing in the experience of more and more people every day. The ancient knowledge which had to be taken on faith is now just over our individual horizons awaiting our Yes. This book has the feel of authenticity about it, as if it could have been spoken by a modern American Maharshi or Nisargadatta. The language here is very clear and his ideas are easy to follow. If you are at the point in your journey where you've begun to question your true identity, then this book will resonate pleasantly and perhaps take you a step or two further. In this game of awakening there is everything to gain and nothing to lose except your fear and alienation. The book ends with several pages of quotes from the marvelous Ashtavakra Gita...."striving or still the fool never finds peace, but the master finds it just by knowing how things are...the master goes about his business with perfect equanimity...because he knows his own nature, he does what he has to do without feeling ruffled...his sorrows are at an end".

The Meaning of Life

I just can't say enough about the positive impact of this book upon my life and those closest to me. At last, I know the meaning of life - who I am and why I am here. Not just the mechanical interconnectedness of life's events that so many other books speak of, but the reason and purpose for them. Satyam makes you laugh and marvel at the glory of "what is, as is".

Not Everyone's Mystic

Satyam Nadeen is a self-admitted Type A. He writes like an ad agency account exec. In this book, he still believes that group discussions (satsangs) are valuable and doesn't seem concerned that most degenerate into rants and ho-hum ego trip sessions. (Well, maybe those led by him don't.) He likes the idea (how could he, after being a Rajneeshi! ) of creating a spiritual organization with newsletters, etc. (At least, as of this book, he did.) Nevertheless, if you're not totally in his groove and find his means of expression overly hip for you, he may still have plenty to offer, simply because he doesn't wax ethereal. He is for real and to the point, Poonja-like. He describes the process of enlightenment in a unique and highly candid light from his and his students' own experiences. He has an interesting take on New Age seekers.On Page 146 he responds to the ancient query of "Why suffering?" in a way most people won't want to hear but that probably is the bottom line on a topic that he says can't be understood by the mind. Yes, his gung-ho-ness might get to you if you're over 25, but there's no denying--if you've read his first book, FROM ONIONS TO PEARLS--that he knows whereof he speaks in regard to what he calls the "Shift." This book is a valuable companion to his first, and a "wake up call" that will ring bells for the open-minded. For tired, chronic do-ers, it is another dandy reminder that fixing life isn't possible at any level.

Nadeen Delivers

This book, quite simply, blew the lid off my life. After many years of looking for the key to the trap door, (and I am not a young woman, mind you) reading "From Finders to Seekers" put the truth in the palm of my hand. Sure, the ground had been prepared, and Nadeen's first book "From Onions to Pearls" cleared away quite a lot of rubble, but this one delivered the experience I had longed for full blown. Illusion after illusion was skillfully removed, revealing the state of consciousness produced by what the author calls "the shift". I cannot recommend this book highly enough. If you are ready for the final blow, step under the sword of an excellent marksman. Heads will roll.
