Essential reading for those practicing self-enquiry, a booklet of discourses by the semi-legendary 20th century Ch'an Master Hsu Yun.
This blog is about spiritual awakening, maps and stages, the blinding effects of our strong momentum/conditioning (karmic propensities), view, realization, experience, etc. If you're new here, I recommend going through the 'Must Reads' articles (see sidebar). For discussions you are welcome to join the Awakening to Reality Facebook group
