9 CD Set

AU$170.00

THE ESSENTIAL TEACHING is a journey through the human psyche which forms our existence. The journey covers the descent into yourself through the stillness of right meditation, self-knowledge through the nature of truth, the fact and truth of death, sexual love, and the divine law or karma. It leads you to knowing, so that you eventually realise or make real, the living truth or the truth of your being.

A Journey in Consciousness

I am going to make real for you the final mystery of existence. This is the rarest knowledge on earth.’

The journey of self-discovery leads back through everything we know about ourselves to a point of perception, beyond the brain. Barry Long draws us back towards that point by telling us the story of existence and helps us see ourselves as we truly are • CD One / Tape One: The Unbelievable Truth - Why truth is unacceptable to the human brain; how it makes sense of the world; how to get through to the consciousness at the centre of it • CD Two / Tape Two: Who I Am - An exploration of a reality beyond the brain’s comprehension; a demonstration in our living experience of the perception at the centre of every spiritual realisation - the knowledge of what ‘I’ am and where ‘I’ come from.

How to Live Joyously

'Stop living in your own shadow, and the sun, the joy, immediately shines.’

Barry Long teaches that joy is our natural state. To reveal our true being we have to shed the tensions and burdens of living. To do this requires new energy and a willingness to live responsibly and consciously under the law of life, often called ‘karma’ • CD One / Tape One: How To Live Joyously - Tells the story of the being behind the mask, the real you beneath the personality; how to make yourself free; with exercises to release the energy needed to live more joyously • CD Two / Tape Two: The Law Of Life - Karma: The law which governs the lives of conscious individuals; what it is to be consciously responsible for your life; how karma operates in the mystery of life, death and rebirth.

Seeing Through Death

‘The living don’t perceive the purpose of death. But the dying eventually do — only then it is too late for them to return and tell us what it is. I tell you the purpose of death and convey the art of dying.’

Few dare speak of death, let alone make conscious preparation for it. Barry Long puts the taboo aside in an uplifting account of what happens when we die. He has counsel for the bereaved, compassionate words for those actually dying, and advice about explaining death to children. This CD prepares all of us for death - by telling us the truth of it. The fear of death is a barrier that must be breached to realise the truth of life. 'In the game of living, the rule is: everyone dies. You win by finding death before it finds you. The prize is life.
