Customer Reviews

An impersonal understanding

This book just says it how it is, this is what the ego fears. It is interesting that there are so many personal attacks on this guy. This shows he is doing something right. Great book on truth, don't care who wrote it because we are all expressions of the one. The teachings are always more significant than the teacher. J

The bedrock of Spiritual Growth

I highly recommend this book and all of Cohen's books. His five basic tenants of enlightenment which he teaches in this book and in others are the bedrock of spiritual development and maturity. His teachings lay the ground work for the personal mastery of every human being. Although he does not teach immortality he understands that the primary purpose of the human is to attain freedom. The road in which immortality is achieved. I also suggest you attend one of his retreats.

Spiritual wisdom and a penetrating scientific inquiry

With Embracing Heaven & Earth, American spiritual teacher Andrew Cohen offers the reader a "psychology of liberation", blending transcendent spiritual wisdom with a penetrating scientific inquiry into human nature. Highly recommended reading for students of Eastern philosophy and spirituality, the major presentations comprising this informative, thought-provoking compendium include "The Five Fundamental Tenets of Enlightenment"; "Desire: The Perennial Obstacle"; "The Psychology of Liberation"; and the title piece, "Embracing Heaven & Earth".

Guide to Enlightenment

I have read many spiritual books during the past twenty years, but none comes even close to Andrew Cohen's newest book, 'Embracing Heaven and Earth'. It is literally a textbook for Liberation. This book is not just words on paper. The words are alive. They vibrate and explode with Andrew Cohen's passionate and inspiring call for each of us to respond to the Evolutionary Impulse, the Mystery beyond name and form, which includes giving up our existential tension, abandoning all beliefs that we are separate from others; from life, and realizing the inherent perfection of Life. In this powerful book Andrew challenges each of us to face into the most profound possibility and potential of the human race and literally become a Messenger of the Divine. This is a must read for anyone who claims to be interested in the spiritual/religious life.
