In this third book, the author Gian Kumar has ventured into experiential awareness. His earlier books had shown that in spite of material and digital comforts in the world today, we are still living a life of dualities. Happiness-unhappiness, good-bad, God-devil, all exist side by side. Following spiritual teachings of gurus or masters do not give the much needed solace; there still seems to be something missing.

The mind, with its constant chatter and habit of delving into past experiences and anxieties about the future, does not allow to live in the present moment and be aware in the 'now'. By the time our mind can register it, there is already a new 'now' which has taken its place.
Here, the author has brought us into a deeper existence, where through experiential realization and higher consciousness, he has shown us by what methods we can attain this state. This brings us to the core, centralizing both extremes, helping us to realize an awareness of oneness with the universe.

A Simple Balance

I have been touched by the simplicity and honesty of the author, Mr. Gian Kumar, right from his very first book "Know Thyself". I found I could relate totally to his subject of not really knowing, and accepting, my true self, with all my faults and flaws. His second book as well, set me on to the path of self-awareness.
In this third book, "The Ultimate Reality", he continues with the same honesty, admitting that he is neither a spiritual teacher, nor very spiritually inclined himself. Yet he very beautifully shows us how, through "experiential living", we can attain that pure balance in our lives, between ourselves and the environment in which we live. "The experience of a separate self is just an illusion", he says.
The author's methods of arriving at such a balance are simple and easy to follow in our daily lives. This book definitely goes on to my list of favorites!
Our culture has taught us to believe in many ideas which aren't actually real. Exposing these illusions allows us to recover the power to live our lives according to our deepest desires.
