‘The nature of living a spiritual life is, in its simplest form, the individual in union with the deepest sense of Self, and then knowing that the same divine Self is present throughout creation. It can range from a gentle nudge of joyful love in the heart to a powerful surge of bliss that makes you escape from the tiny prison of self and expand into God-filled omnipresence.’
Volume Six: Writing in the Book of Life is the closing volume in Yogacharya David’s discourses, here he shares the main aim of spiritual masters; ‘to be transmitting stations for the purifying and uplifting power of Divine Consciousness.’ As a fully inspired ‘transmitting’ station, Yogacharya David now, after valiantly overcoming intense health challenges for some time, dropped his body August 12, 2019. This volume includes Yogacharya David’s final discourses, reflections from loved ones, and concludes with a selection of poignant quotes from this series-all designed to keep our ‘transmitting stations’ awake and active.
About the Author: Gathered here, we have a masterful series of discourses from a Western Yogi who found his way out of the reality-box of materialism and the five-sense bounded nature of Western education. Join Yogacharya David as he seeks the Infinite Soul-Force-his and our unique spiritual heritage. He inwardly experiences the path that is seeded in the sovereign heart of every individual. As we take this marvellous but sometimes perilous pilgrimage of sacred Self-discovery alongside Yogacharya David, we too can embody more conscious soul-force and birth a new re-union of soul and spirit.
