I feel touched and so glad that such people exist. Looks like John David has done a great and very worthwhile job. Excellent. Lots of love and appreciation. This is good enough to be a life's work. --Paul Lowe, Spiritual Teacher and Author

I really loved this book. It's the kind of material that you can just open and read from there. I always find something new. The people interviewed make up a beautiful mix of teachings and wisdom from the traditions of India. If you want to know yourself, I recommend this book as a 'must-have'. --OpenHeart

This book was really interesting for me as it comes from a Westerner's (Premananda) vision of mapping the spirit of Indian Sages, from the intial inspiration of Sri Ramana Maharshi. As such the questions asked really get to the heart of what a lot of seekers want to know; like 'What is enlightenment, Who am I, etc.... Very beautifully in this book, the speakers create a sense of grace arounda all these subjects. Ajja, Ramesh, and Radha Ma ( I don't like to pick them out usually ) especially speak with such directness and clarity, that it doesn't matter if you get something from them, for the words themselves take you to that place of silence, the mind is just quietened. Sometimes I got the feeling that the Western perspective was quite oppressive on the Indian Masters, but that's just another challenge. How great that the two old divisions, West and East, are meeting like this in dialogue. The varied teachers present their responses to the questions in different ways, so it is always a change in the next chapter, with the new flavours of these enlightenend people. The message, however, is always the same, they are pointing to the truth of who we are, the truth of Oneness. It is a delight to receive the wisdom in this book, to hear the advice, or just to enjoy the conversations and the pointers to wisdom. A beautiful book. --Atmana

Reseña del editor

Blueprints for Awakening is for everyone who has an inner passion to know who they are and what they are doing here as a human being. It is for all who ask the question 'Who am I?' and for those who are looking for guidance on the teaching of Bhagavan Sri Ramana Maharshi to 'be as you are'. In India he is regarded as a Saint and many consider him the most important guru of recent times: Sri Ramana Maharshi, simply called Bhagavan, God, by his devotees. Premananda has succeeded in coaxing sixteen impotant Indian Masters to speak into his microphone. He asks each of them the same questions about the teaching of their fellow Master, Sri Ramana. The result is a compendium of astonishing wisdom about the biggest secret of all times: the nature of our true Self and how to realise it.
