The realization that there is no explanation for existence or awareness of existence is ultimate liberation. John Astin's book offers an opportunity for this liberation, if you are ready.' Deepak ChopraThis book has the power to transform lives. Shauna Shapiro, author of The Art and Science of MindfulnessAnyone who attempts to describe what is ultimately indescribable faces the same challengehow does one use words to explain something that transcends language? Many writers fall into the trap of using more words to do the job that most words arent even particularly suited for, the ideas growing ever more allusive and abstract as the verbiage piles up. But in trying to unmoor the essence of lived experience from the concepts and stories we use to construct it, author and spiritual teacher John Astin takes a different approachusing fewer words instead of more, and grounding them with exercises designed to evoke the actual experience of what hes describing.Evoking the true nature of experience in words is a tricky proposition: perceptual reality has no beginning and no end, making it impossible to delineate, and what arises internally as thoughts and feelings are equally limitless, indeterminate, and unresolvable. While we have countless ways to categorize, conceptualize, and label things, the truth of whatever is being felt, seen, tasted, touched, or heard is infinitely more complex and multidimensional than our conceptual or linguistic structures would have us believe. By becoming more intimate with experience itselfrather than trying to narrate, avoid, or escape itwe can begin to discover that our experiences cannot possibly limit us in the ways weve imagined, owing to their radically openended and ultimately indefinable nature.This Extraordinary Moment invites you on a journey of boundless inquiry, which becomes a liberating freefall into the mysteries that lie just beyond our understanding of lived realitywhich words can never quite describe. Built entirely around personal experience and exploration, this book provides activities, dialogues, exercises, and meditations to help you unlearn the basic misapprehensions about the nature of momenttomoment experience, and shows you how to gain distance from the stories you tell about what youre experiencing, so as to better focus on whats actually happening in the present moment.With ultrashort chapters grounded in experiential practices, and without the use of the usual spiritual jargon, this fastmoving, highly readable book makes the esoteric accessible to allfrom anyone interested in stress management, wellbeing, or positive psychology to the devoted spiritual seeker.
