How you you’ll benefit from reading this book

Spiritual awakening is not a distant goal. The peace, joy, and wholeness you seek are waiting to be discovered in this very moment. This book is your guide.

Infinite Awakening is a comprehensive guide to the “pathless path” of nondual spirituality. It teaches that awakening is the recognition of your true nature—a state of peace, freedom, and interconnectedness that’s already complete and present within you—and it invites you to explore the immediacy of your “natural state” and embrace awakening as a direct experience.

Drawing from decades of experience, including training in Zen, Tibetan Dzogchen, and Advaita Vedanta, and his many years as a spiritual teacher and director of the School for Awakening, Stephan Bodian addresses essential questions, such as:

• How does nondual spirituality differ from other spiritual perspectives?

• What are the stages of spiritual awakening?

• How does the direct approach of the pathless reveal the innate perfection of this moment right now?

• What are the common challenges on this path, and how can we work with them?

• What is the role of a teacher, and what are the potential pitfalls?

• How can we discoverlasting peace and happiness by living from an awakened understanding in every moment of our lives?

• How does trauma affect the awakening process?

• How do we infuse our life with love and compassion by discoveringour inseparability from others and the world around us?

As a teacher and psychotherapist, Bodian demystifies awakening with his down-to-earth approach, offering practical teachings, meditations, direct pointers, and exercises to help you not only wake up but also integrate your realization into the ordinary situations and relationships you encounter in everyday life.
