Becoming Transparent to the Transcendant:  Karlfried Graf Durckhein

While visiting with Francis Lucille during his retreat outside of Munich, Germany this summer, he stunned me with a quote from Karlfield Graf Durckheim, the German diplomat, psychotherapist, Zen "master" and deeply enchanting Christian mystic. Enjoyed by Jean Klein, Graf died in 1988 at the age of 92.

"Suddenly it happened! I was listening and lightning went through me. The veil was torn asunder, I was awake! I had just experienced 'It'. Everything existed and nothing existed. Another Reality had broken through this world. I myself existed and did not exist..."

"I had experienced that which is spoken of in all centuries: individuals, in whatever stage of their lives, have had an experience which struck them with the force of lightning and linked them once and for all to the circuits of True Life."

We continue to great a great reception for the new film series on The Direct Path of Sri Atmananda Krishna Menon. Last newsletter we shared two film clips from the new 2 DVD set. This week we share two more, " Where is Perception recieved?" and "Are we physical?" Click here to watch the Atmananda Krishna Menon dialogue with Greg Goode.

"Truth without Love is no Truth at All."

What is Love? What does our common experience tell us? What  does Love have to do with advaita and non-duality? How is the dissolution of the "separate  sense of self" synonomous with the fullfillment of our deepest desire for Love?

Beyond the analytical questions needed to satisfy a hungry and, sometimes, unruly mind, there is the deeper inspection of sensing and feeling at the level of the body, targeting "ignorance", the continuing belief in separation and the  "individual sense of me."

In this new DVD, Rupert Spira explores the relationship between our sense of lack and the veiling of Love, that which we are. These formerly taboo subjects are explored in depth in an all new dialogue with Rupert Spira filmed in May 2010 in Temecula, California.

In these first two short video clips from the DVD set, Rupert intimately unlocks the hidden meaning of  the ancient Indian sanskrit term,Nama Ropa Sat Chit Ananda using western terms familiar to everyone.

There is much excitement regarding the intimate, experiential approach of Rupert Spira. StillnessSpeaks.com proudly presents new film clips  from it's continuing conversations with Rupert Spira for your enjoyment.  Click here to see the first of seven short clips from the upcoming 2 DVD set.
