Not Two: The Essence of Non Duality

ìThis royal path (Advaita), revealed by the sages of yore, is now in danger of being closed. The by-lanes are being taken for the royal path. Our effort now is to make people realize that these diversions from the royal road will lead them nowhere. Lifeís real problem is not solved with these shortcuts to spirituality. These shortcuts will only result in endangering the seekerÖ This is a movement for the propagation of the true Vedantic wisdom, the legacy left behind by Shankara Bhagavathpada, the timeless knowledge that is eminently adaptable to the modern times.î ----Shri Yellamraju Srinivasa Rao What is the Absolute Truth? What is my essential nature? How can I grasp the truth and make it my every-day experience? In this book, Shri Yellamraju Srinivasa Rao, with great insight and clarity, answers questions that intrigue seekers of the truth. Srinivasa Raoís clear and lucid explanations of the Absolute Truth resonate deeply, and awaken the seeker to a direct experience of the Self as Pure Consciousness. ìThis book is a very useful addition to the Vedanta texts in English. It is an excellent summarization of Advaita.î --- Dr. Aravinda Rao Karanam, Retired DGP, now teaching at www.advaita-academy.org ìShri Yellamraju Srinivasa Rao imparts a no-frills Advaita that has a high fidelity to Shankaraís core teaching. His unique style of explicating the Knowledge Path captures analytical minds and makes one marvel at the rigor of logic and precision of the ancient Indian Sages. His metaphors are often enthralling and highly instructive. Here is a truly rewarding Advaita text that challenges everyoneís intellect.î ---Dr. Ramesam Vemuri, Author of Religion Demystified, and writer at www.advaita-vision.org.
