Editorial Review:
An intimate account of spontaneous spiritual enlightenment and its implications in a life lived beyond the individual self, Perfect Brilliant Stillness is a guidebook for the more advanced spiritual seeker who is ready to go beyond popular new age ideas to explore in depth the perennial wisdom of the non-dual tradition of Eastern spirituality. Perfect Brilliant Stillness offers an invitation to finally let go of the false sense of individual self and to go, completed, beyond.

Rating:  - Throw this book in the Advaita Stew and serve it generously it's a great read.
This is a very skillful account on the subject of Advaita by the entity david as he describes himself. He is an excellent story teller with a very engaging approach to this subject. I note several negative feedbacks regarding this book which I found a bit odd. Firstly, awakening is not boring it is in fact the contrary and generally it is from illusion of ego that one arrives at such a comment. Secondly, as far as the writer appearing contradictory and dry at times, that is certainly within the nature ... Read More
Rating: - From the first, not one thing is
This is not Feel-Good Spirituality.
The author opens with, "There are many books out there that will help you live a better life, become a better person, and evolve and grow to realize your full potential as a human being. This is not one of them."

"It seems a shame there have to be so many words...volumes and volumes...so much verbosity"..but is this true? does there really have to be so much said about the Great Silence?

Rating: - excellent
if this illusory world is just a dream and i dream because i want to sleep, then what is waking up???? and what will i wake up to? this illusory book gives some peaceful thought and non dualistic thought to "well if it is not this, then what is it?" absolutely nothing, never was, never happened, the world was over long ago and this me that i think i am is part of what was over long ago.......thank you david carse for writing one great illusory book on nothingness.

Rating:  - Good, but
I liked this book - but: I agree with another reviewer who pointed out that he's hammering these unnamed teachers who have organizations, charge money for their weekend seminars (does he think they're renting space for free?) etc etc - implying you should avoid them, they don't "have" the full Understanding - and then he quotes nearly every possible teacher you could imagine he's referring to (Ramesh, Gangaji, Byron Katie, Wayne Liquorman, Tony Parsons) implying that they "have" the Understanding. He ... Read More
