In Every Wave, the Entirety of the Sea

By: John Astin

Narrated by: John Astin

The nearly consensus human view is that we exist as these vulnerable creatures trying to navigate a vast and complex world, a world we imagine we’re separate from, and often find ourselves struggling to make sense of and keep ourselves safe from at almost every turn.

But seeing ourselves as these independently existing creatures trying to make the best of a potentially threatening world of experience and circumstance is not the only way to see life. There is another perspective, one this book invites the listener into and that is the discovery that there is only one thing here, one ever-changing, ultimately indescribable reality that has no findable boundaries or borders, a seamless whole that remains undivided from itself, no matter how it appears. Everything is the activity of this whole, this one reality that is being and doing all things.

The aim of the inquiries in this book is to point the listener back to this one reality, the fact that no findable division between what we think of as “our” individual existence and the existence of life itself can be found, the discovery that the wholeness, the completeness, the fullness that we seek as humans is in fact, already here, shining forth as us and everything that appears.

Brilliant and Transforming

John Astin’s book is a must read for people who are interested in spiritual/non-dual inquiry.

In this book, Astin invites you to step into life’s borderless infinity and discover the brilliant unfolding that is every moment.

I continue to feel the lasting, transformative effects of this book.

- It’s also so refreshing to hear this book narrated by the author, not AI 😊

Marvelous, Easily Digestible Nondual Essays

This is a marvelous book, best listened to slowly, so each chapter can be experienced, not glossed over. The sheer breadth of approaches pointing to Oneness from a clear source is monumental. Whether you’re new to experiencing “this” as it is, or surrender is your lived experience, this book is a must listen. I literally have hundreds of nondual books and have been quite renascent to indulge in another. That said, this book, particularly the audible version for “me”, has provided a number of new and useful insights. I sincerely thank the author for this work of Love and its clear narration.
