"EXCELLENT."Giten is really a spiritual master of love and silence. He is a loving man, who knows the science of truth, love and life. Whenever I read his words of spirituality, I always find myself in deep silence and in the belly of the divine, where anyone can feel himself as a buddha.”
Swami Prem Pathik, Nepal
THIS BOOK IS LIKE LISTENING TO BIRDSONG. I AM IN LOVE WITH THIS BOOK. GITEN’S NEW BOOK IS HIS MOST ACCOMPLISHED BOOK
“This book is so beautiful; it is like listening to birdsong. I am in love with this book. It is very clear and direct. Giten's new book is his most accomplished book.
It is the capacity and the clear intensity of walking like an arrow directly towards the center of the inner being in meditation that really surrounds this book. I'm speechless.
I have never heard anyone ever been able to describe this as educational and "up to date" as it must be and just is - like the simplicity of drinking a glass of water.”
- Deva Emanuel, musician and participant in satsang with Giten
In this book spiritual teacher and Amazon International bestseller author says that everybody has the birthright to become a buddha. The buddha is inherent in every human being, and not only in every human being, but it is the intrinsic quality of every living being. What is preventing you from becoming a Buddha? The reason is simple, because to become a buddha is also a desire. It is not a question of becoming a buddha. It is a question of entering your being.
The buddha is already in your being. There is a great difference between being and becoming. Becoming is in the future. Being is just here and now. You are already a buddha. It means that we are a buddha, but we are unnecessarily running after being a buddha.
When you go inside, where a silence descends on you, you return to the source. At the source, you are the buddha. At the source, you are one with life and existence.
The buddha is your own being. Make a deep commitment to yourself that you are going to become a buddha in this life. Without being a buddha, you don't have any meaning in your life. When you don't make a commitment to become a buddha in this life it may take lives and lives, because you do not want to become enlightened. Otherwise, this very moment you are the buddha, because you are already a buddha. Just a straight insight into your inner being, and enlightenment can happen suddenly. Within you wait a light that has been within you since eternity, a light that is your immortality. Just enter into yourself and you have entered the temple of existence.
This book is a compilation of spiritual teacher and author Swami Dhyan Giten's lectures on enlightenment during satsang between 2020 – 2021 in Stockholm.
This book is an opportunity to find the inner buddha, to find the silence, joy, truth, freedom, compassion, to find the roots in eternity, immortality and deathlessness, and to be one with life and existence. It is to become one with the trees, with the animals, with the rivers and the oceans. Use this book as an opportunity to become a light to yourself.
