This is an uncompromising and provocative book about non-duality. In liberation it is seen that all phenomena simply arise in awareness with no person mediating them. Purpose, religion and paths of... This description may be from another edition of this product.
I think this book either speaks to you, or misses you completely. A year ago this book would have missed me completely, but at the time I found it, it was what I was looking for. I have thrown away most of my old spirituality books, and purchased some of the "different" sort of enlightenment books. Of course it is completely useless anyways, but whatever. I like the way he explains things, it worked for me, well as best it could :) I also like Jed Mckenna's books, but they are of a slightly different perspective. "I hope you Die Soon" is one of the best books about nothing that I have come across, but hey, it is all relative.

Book about Nothing

I have read numerous books on non-duality, and I find that this book by Richard Sylvester useful to be used as a revision book on non-duality. This book reminds me that there never was an "I". On page 19, it is stated that "Oneness is writing these words and oneness is reading them". How true this statement is. I have read this book three times already and I shall continue reading it.
Clarity with a funnybone.

There's nowhere in this easy-to-read book that allows even the tiniest space for the "persn" to go to hide out or even take a moment's rest. The author is relentless. Clearly, consistently and funnily driving home again and again the point that there is no real person. Let's all join the land of the living dead! Enough wasting time with all these high-maintenance "personalities"--let's die soon.

"Richard's description of what has been seen in liberation is both eloquent and down to earth. His direct, uncluttered and concise expression can be readily identified with and speaks directly to that knowing which is beyond seeking." Tony Parsons - author of `The Open Secret'
