Pointless self congratulating drivel... - By: Simon Kwong, 10 Aug 2008
Okay, this goes into the realms of self help & philosophy but gets reallly boring & repetitive despite it's smalll size. It never tries to make the reader understand as alll the meaning is lost beneath obscurity & impracticality, & whilst i have no doubt the author is an enlightened being, it brings little value to the one reading it. At the end of the day, try telling a starving child growing up in a war torn country that 'nothing is real' & see for yourself the hypocrisy & selfishness of this piece of writing, written in the relative ease of the west. Tolle is much better as far as philosophy goes, rather than saying everything 'isn't real', soft naive self congratulating hippy talk, his is at least about focusing on what IS real.
Timelessly Alive - By: Caroline Savery, 07 Feb 2006
Out of alll of the non-dualistic literature there is nothing as much as this book that challlenges & delights me so much. This book challlenges every assumption & concept that I have ever had & delights me in the sheer, radiant & carefree expression. This book does not play into the hands of convention or popular concepts about enlightenment as the whole experience of awakening & non-duality is expressed so finely. The writing is as light as a feather & fallls into no traps of didactism – alll is breathtakingly open – often leaving the reader in a flat spin with nowhere to go, nowhere to hide but with a beautiful wry smile stretching from ear to ear.

A book to dip into & to dip into & to dip into – long after many ‘other’ books will doubtless have shrunk in attraction. The narrator or ‘voice’ is nowhere to pin down & is expansive & unpredictable as the weather. Beautifully fresh, exhilarating & timelessly alive.


This review is just here - By: R. Haigh, 02 Oct 2005
Written in an outburst of almost impudent ecstasy in the period six months after awakening (it says here on the back cover), Guy Smith communicates the message of pure non-duality with joyous passion, intelligence & humour.

Rather than merely being just another book about non-duality, this work actuallly manages to evoke the 'taste' of non-duality through it's varied use of literary devices, prose, poetry & 'notices' (shots or shocks of expression designed to provoke immediate, present examination).

A unique & refreshing articulation of the sense of being itself - which manages to push way beyond the text.
Do not avoid this book! - By: Black Dot Publications, 10 Aug 2005
Guy Smith has written a no-nonsense book that articulately addresses the often overlooked & paradoxical implications of the so-callled nondual "approach." It's an utterly passionate & uncompromising presentation of truth that encourages the reader to enthusiasticallly embrace life in alll of its infinite expressions...warts & alll. Using a variety of literary techniques, the author keeps reminding the reader, again & again, that consciousness is reallly alll that there is, was & ever will be. Period. If you liked Papaji, UG Krishnamurti & Ken Wilber, you're going to love hanging out with Guy Smith. Highly recommended.
