Poetry and Prose of Dancing Emptiness
 

Sri H.W.L. Poonja
. "This" is a collection of succinct jewels spoken by Sri H.W.L. Poonja between 1990 and 1996.  The songs flow from his impeccable experience of the highest and yet simplest Truth:  That we are pure Consciousness, the totality of Existence.  Some of the gems also come from his personal diary.  As Timelessness is a sign of the teachings of the Wise, these songs are compiled by essence only and so have no chronology, often even within a single verse.   It is as practical as it is mystical and is highly regarded by all traditions and especially those interested in Advaita. For more information see the endorsements below. 

An excerpt: 

    All that you are attached to, all that you Love, 
    all that you know, someday will be gone. 

    Knowing this, and that the world is your mind 
    which you create, play in, and suffer from, 
    is known as discrimination. 

    Discriminate between the Real and the unreal. 
    The known is unreal and will come and go 
    so stay with the Unknown, the Unchanging, the Truth.

Endorsements for THIS

We have all loved Ramana Maharshi, the great Indian Saint of the 20th century
of South India.  We had wondered whether there would be a natural succesor to
his remarkable teachings of Liberation.  All who knew Poonjaji were blessed. 
He had this remarkable capacity to point directly to the Truth of things. 
Through his direct teachings he woke people up.
THIS communicates both the letter and the spirit of Poonjaji’s teachings.  I
thoroughly recommend it to those who deeply wish to know the Non-dual.

 THIS is the most elegant and precise rendition of Poonjaji's teachings in print.

Author of: 
I had the great good fortune to spend some time with Poonja-ji at his house in
Lucknow, India, in 1991.  He was a truly Enlightened Master.  And not only
that, he spoke English, which was a great boon, and he was funny, to boot. 
The Master was by then aged and hard of hearing.  We sat at his feet in his
living room, and he shouted at us and laughed at us and with us, while his
brilliant pearls of wisdom fell freely into the laps of us kosher swine.  We
had to shout back in order for him to hear us, which sort of brought us up to
where he was.  And bringing us up to where he is is what this delicious book
is all about.  He is still shouting: "Listen up, The Master awaits!"

 "THIS" is a book that I keep by my bedside to read again and again. It's an exceptionally beautiful and skillful selection of the essence of Satsang from Poonjaji - one of the truly great spiritual Masters of the Twentieth century.

 "This" is so fine. I showed it to a friend and he was immediately transported into the Heart by Papaji's words. Much gratitude to you all.

 Translations
Perhaps one of the biggest endorsements of the this book is the amount of translating that is being accomplished.  Besides being spoken and written in English, 'The Truth Is' is also translated into German and Spanish and nearly published, and its French translation is nearing completion. Some parts of the book are published in Hindi as well.  The time and effort and understanding required to translate this book into all these languages is so appreciated.
