Synopsis

Eli Jaxon-Bear presents a radically new model of the ego and the psyche. Bringing together his background in Buddhism with his Sufi work on essence, he presents a fresh approach to awakening by using the Enneagram's nine fixated structure of ego to clearly describe who you are not.

You will see how habits of egoic identification continuously appear to veil the pristine consciousness that you truly are. When these habits of mind are exposed, there is a clear choice to end the bondage of ego-based suffering and to realize the vast, inherent freedom of one's true nature. In this book Eli gives us the map of the prison of mind and the keys to freedom.

About this title

About the Author:

Eli Jaxon-Bear was born Elliot Jay Zeldow in Brooklyn, New York, in 1947.After an eighteen-year spiritual search that took him around the world and into many traditions and practices, he was pulled to India in 1990 where he met his final teacher, Sri H.W.L. Poonja.

Confirming Eli's realization, his teacher sent him back into the world to share his psychological insights into the nature of egoic suffering in support of self-realization. Eli infuses the teaching of the Enneagram with a living transmission of Silence, presenting this unique map of egoic identification as a vehicle for ruthless self-inquiry and deepening realization of true freedom. He dedicates his life to passing on the transmission of his teacher.

Eli Jaxon-Bear is the author of The Song of Freedom. He is the editor of Wake Up and Roar: Satsang with H.W.L. Poonja.
