Spirit and Life-The Four Gospels for Awakening : A Practical Commentary on the Life and Teachings of Jesus Christ, Volume 2 the Way of Liberation

Spirit & Life–The Four Gospels for Awakening offers a powerful, practical commentary on a harmony of the Gospels, and is not a mere biography but a spiritual revelation consisting of both the life and the teachings of Jesus. The author, as someone who has a background in both Christianity and Hinduism (Sanatana Dharma), gives an analysis which is a synthesis of western and eastern perspectives

Far from being a conventional or doctrinal study, this book invites readers into the inner life of the soul, where Jesus is not only the Master Teacher, but the awakened Self within. With clarity and reverence, the author examines the inner meaning of the canonical Gospels, unveiling their universal message of illumination, liberation, and union with God.

Volume Two-The Way of Liberation-guides the reader through the life and sayings of Jesus with an emphasis on spiritual practice, transformation, and divine realization, from the Transfiguration, to Betrayal and Crucifixion, and to the ultimate Transfiguration: Resurrection. It continues to illumine the later teachings, parables, miracles, and final revelations of the Gospels. In its pages, you will encounter:

• The deeper meaning of the Kingdom of Heaven
• The inner teachings behind Jesus’ parables
• The mysteries of death, resurrection, and divine union
• The path of awakening he set before each of us

Whether you are a Christian seeker, a student of the world's wisdom traditions, or a contemplative drawn to the mystical heart of the Gospel, this book offers a path of light and life.
