Description
Gautam Sachdeva first visited the Advaita sage Ramesh Balsekar in February 2000, and has been attending his talks ever since. Over a period of eight years, he also found himself taking on the role of a publisher, working intimately with Balsekar in the process of publishing some of his books. This collaboration not only deepened his understanding of Advaita philosophy but also allowed him to witness firsthand the profound impact that Ramesh’s teachings had on countless seekers.
In May 2007, Gautam wrote an article in Life Positive, India’s leading spiritual magazine, as a tribute to Ramesh Balsekar on his 90th birthday. With the heartwarming response from readers to this article, and Ramesh’s suggestion to make it into a booklet, he then put down what he considered the core of the teaching as presented by Ramesh Balsekar – to seekers from all over the world – in his morning talks. The article’s transformation into a booklet marked the beginning of a new chapter in sharing Ramesh’s wisdom, reaching an even wider audience who sought answers to life’s deepest questions.
Most of Balsekar’s books have been published from his original hand-written notes, or are transcripts of dialogues with seekers. These books capture the essence of spontaneous conversations where wisdom flows naturally, unfiltered and directly from the source. This book is a summation of the core concepts in the “spoken word” of Ramesh Balsekar, as if he were walking the seeker through his entire teaching in one morning talk.
This is what Pointers from Ramesh Balsekar is about – pointers to dealing with life’s situations, its pleasures and pains, with equanimity and peace of mind – from one of the world’s leading Advaita sages. In this book, readers will find practical wisdom that transcends cultural and temporal boundaries, offering timeless guidance on the journey towards inner peace.
