The Magic of Awareness

By: Anam Thubten, Sharon Roe

Narrated by: Fred Stella

The paradox of awareness is very profound and yet very simple. It can't be described because it has no objective qualities and no limitation. Sometimes it comes naturally to the surface when we are fully in the present moment and no longer lost in thought or mental projections. Pure consciousness is neither high nor low, neither pleasant nor unpleasant, neither good nor bad. No matter where we are, no matter what we are doing, we always have an immediate access to that inner stillness. It can be experienced in an instant in all circumstances once we know how to pay attention to it. It is utterly peaceful and it is also insightful, so it sees through all illusions. Whenever there is a moment of being deluded, we can use that moment to practice settling in the very perfect sphere of the Buddha mind without trying to change anything. When we reside in that liberated mind, we find the very thing we have been seeking all along.

Simple to Understand the essence of Buddhism

Basically I learned that the essence of being is through awareness and compassion to oneself, others and the flow of life

Amazing

One of the best books on the Dharma I've ever read. This is more than worth a listen.

Demystifying

great narration. Well written until the last chapter. ..maybe over my head but too many dichotomies for me to make sense of.

the most comprehenible explanation and teaching

the most comprehenible explanation and teaching for anyone aware there is something more than this shallow experience of life without soul

Illuminating!

I listen to “the magic of awareness” over and over, at bedtime and on my walks. Anum Thubten is the real deal.
