Practices for the Quest / Relax and Retreat
by Paul Brunton

“There is a difference between aspiration and ambition as they are to be understood on this quest. . . . Aspiration tries not to surrender to the ego’s tyranny whereas ambition directly strengthens it.” —P.B.

“If you begin the day with love in your heart, peace in your nerves, and truth in your mind, you not only benefit by their presence but also bring them to others . . .” —P.B.

Book Details

Description

Part 1, Practices for the Quest, is a detailed overview of what the spiritual quest involves and how to live it. Sections outline the what, why, and how of qualities to develop; techniques, practices, exercises, attitudes, and disciplines useful at various stages of development (including Long Path/Short Path); and how progress is tested and proven in the processes of everyday living.

Part 2, Relax and Retreat, shows how to cultivate spiritual equilibrium—through balancing intense extroverted activity with creative inner stillness.

Please see the softcover edition pages for table of contents, introduction, reviews, and other related information.

About Paul Brunton

Paul Brunton helps us hear the melody behind the medley of today's "spiritual marketplace." His late writings raise the bar for what we can expect of spiritual teachings and teachers, and what we can do for ourselves. Born in London in 1898, he soon became a leading pioneer of much of what we now take for granted. He traveled widely throughout the world (long before it was fashionable) to meet living masters of various traditions with whom he then lived and studied. His eleven early books from 1934–1952 shared much of what he learned, and helped set the stage for dramatic east-west exchanges of the late 20th century. Paul Brunton left more than 10,000 pages of enormously helpful new work in notebooks he reserved for posthumous publication, much of which is now available as The Notebooks of Paul Brunton.
