The Real Thing!

This is an extremely valuable book; in fact, it's a rare gem in a world of pseudo-advaitists and counterfeit gurus who claim to have overcome the ego, when in actual fact, they carry the biggest egos of all. While reading this book, especially Aziz's life story at the back, you can feel that he is the real thing. In short, he is a human being who has devoted his life searching for truth and, in the end, has found it. What's more, he has the rare and unique ability to explain the process of awakening to others. For sincere people on the spiritual path who truly yearn for a direct experience of God, his teaching is refreshingly clear, practical and brings results. I've never found such valuable guidance in books of a similar genre. Highly, highly recommended! Pierre D'Amours

Clarity, Understanding, Energy, Method - The Only Currently Complete Teaching

This book is not for the simple seeker. Its distinction in clarity and understanding, that is directly understood only at the level of ones evolution and need for understanding, and in fact some level of intelligence, is unparalleled and never seen before. Aziz takes us through the entire process of Enlightenment, what it really entails, and I mean Really, what the different stages and levels of realization are, and offers the most direct, crystal clear, and sensible path to embracing it. He demystifies very correctly the entire tradition of Enlightenment till date, gives credit where credit is due, and exposes that which is simply confusion and incorrect teaching where such is observed. While Totality is certainly the only truth at the highest level, the relative truth is still our truth and always will be as long as we are incarnated. We are not incarnated by some flaw of the universe and our purpose is not simply to transcend and forget everything about this dimension, it is to live in our duality, to live as a human, to understand what it means to be human, but to have energetic union on various levels and crystal clear understanding of who we are and why we are here. Those who are infatuated with concepts of "No Self", and simply want liberation, want the pain to stop, and believe in a one-moment of grandeur theory of enlightenment would not like nor understand this book. This book is about wholeness and transcendence, about cutting out of the human ignorance into realization and union with the Divine, with the eternal Self, while not staying there for that is not the complete reality as is true from the perspective of where we truly abide - in this dualistic incarnation - but returning to what it means to be human, acknowledging the natural common sense of what it means to be human, while remaining in the embrace of the Divine. Those who are strongly affiliated with one tradition or path or the other naturally are not seeking Truth - for a true seeker would see that all traditions point to the truth in some way, but all have different understandings, ideas, and paths, some even denouncing each other. If you seek your idea of Reality, your idea of enlightenment, your idea of liberation, or simply liberation from the plane of Time-Space-dual humanness, you will not like this book nor understand it, let alone connect with it. If Reality is what you seek, first and foremost, if blissful union while remaining true to yourself, and indeed, you do exist, is what your heart longs for, then this book will not fail you, it will be the end of your search. The clarity and understanding of this book is phenomenal. The first 1/4 of the book is guided meditation. As someone has said, the real meat of the book is in the Q & A part of the book, which is the remaining 3/4th. Find all your confusions about the traditions and ideas of enlightenment put to quiet and correct rest. This is the third book in Aziz's series. Enlightenment Beyond Traditions

A phenomenal book on the quest for the Self

Aziz Kristof is now Anadi. He came out of self imposed seclusion last year. Anadi lives in Almora, in the north of India and holds spiritual retreats, all over the world, the latest of which is in Israel. Before going into seclusion, He had authored two books - The Human Buddha and Transmission of Awakening, and co-authored another book Enlightenment Beyond Traditions with his soul brother Houman Emani. Simply put The Human Buddha is the most advanced book on seeking you will ever find. Yes, this book is even more advanced than Nisargadatta Maharaj's I am That, by whom Aziz was profoundly impacted. If you have reached this far, then consider it to be an act of providence. Read this book, and prepare to be transformed. The first half (1/5th of the book) consists of Aziz's guided meditations, in which He talks about absolute meditation, and living in the present. The second half (most of the rest of the book) consists of question/answer sessions in which Aziz answers the questions of His disciples. At the fag end of the book comes a short, but profoundly inspiring autobiographical account, in which Aziz, talks about His early childhood, His growing up years, how He had to compulsorily serve in the army, His subsequent escape and travels throughout Asia, and His final journey to India. He finally attains enlightenment in Kerala, to the south of India. Unlike most other masters (many of them genuine) who seek to assemble large groups of disciples around themselves, Aziz has no such ambitions. He wants to keep His work private, and open to only the genuine seeker, not someone who is looking for thrills or a sense of mystery. While this limits His appeal, it also makes Him more open and available to the genuine seeker. My search has ended after reading this book, and I am profoundly grateful to have found Anadi.

A Deep Understanding and Incredible Work

This large book consists of two parts. The first 1/4 to 1/3 is Aziz' guided meditation. There is some insightful material but the real meat of this book is in the remainder which is question and answer which is grouped into chapters of like questions/answers. An amazing book, something like Nisargadatta's "I Am That", that I would return to time and time again.
