Decipher the language of spirituality for yourself, by getting to the heart of fundamental questions. Look beyond the confusing rhetoric of dogmatic and philosophical views that focus more on differentiation than on discovery of the Truth. Traditional teachings, conceptual understanding, and intellectual discourse are great, but as the saying goes, don't mistake a finger for the moon. A Billion Fingers Point at the Moon appears to be about words and language in the context of spiritual traditions, but actually, it is all about the fullness of the moon.Matthew Lowes is the author of That Which is Before You: An Invitation to Enlightenment. As a spiritual teacher, Matthew offers direct insight into awakening. He addresses the deep mystery of our true nature through present experience, and when necessary, through a broad knowledge of traditions and practices. His teachings are universal, not tied to any specific religion or philosophy, and are uncompromising of a truth which lies beyond all words, all thoughts, all concepts.Praise for A Billion Fingers Point at the Moon:"I've read a baffling number of Buddhism, Advaita, and nonduality books, and I find Matthew Lowes' books to be the most coherent, authentic, and helpful of them all." -Paul Paese, PhD, lecturer at Washington University and founder of PMC leadership servicePraise for That Which is Before You:"This is a deadly serious book, direct and to the point. If you read it, follow the instructions, and the time is ripe, it will kill your false sense of self and reveal That Which You Truly Are!" - Joel Morwood, Author of The Way of Selflessness"Matthew Lowes articulates spiritual awakening as only a skilled writer can, and in so doing, provides a map for others to follow. This is an important book." - Liz Cratty, MAAT, Theologian and Author"Like a gut punch to your consciousness and beliefs about the nature of reality. Sometimes your delusions need to be knocked out of you. It can hurt and be scary, but there's a clarity that's impossible to deny." - Kaizen Taki, Founder of Movement Daily… (more)
