About this listen

The paradox of awareness is very profound and yet very simple. It can't be described because it has no objective qualities and no limitation. Sometimes it comes naturally to the surface when we are fully in the present moment and no longer lost in thought or mental projections. Pure consciousness is neither high nor low, neither pleasant nor unpleasant, neither good nor bad. No matter where we are, no matter what we are doing, we always have an immediate access to that inner stillness. It can be experienced in an instant in all circumstances once we know how to pay attention to it. It is utterly peaceful and it is also insightful, so it sees through all illusions. Whenever there is a moment of being deluded, we can use that moment to practice settling in the very perfect sphere of the Buddha mind without trying to change anything. When we reside in that liberated mind, we find the very thing we have been seeking all along.

great narration. Well written until the last chapter. ..maybe over my head but too many dichotomies for me to make sense of.

Demystifying

One of the best books on the Dharma I've ever read. This is more than worth a listen.

Amazing

the most comprehenible explanation and teaching for anyone aware there is something more than this shallow experience of life without soul

I listen to “the magic of awareness” over and over, at bedtime and on my walks. Anum Thubten is the real deal.

Illuminating!

Although there is some redundancy in this, there are also some pearls of wisdom. What is life and what is spirituality? This book brought home the fact that often what we actively seek, we never find (or attain). Doing the same thing over and over, such as praying, going to church, etc, may feel good to us, but it will probably never help us attain nirvana.

Decent Read

Chock full of clarity, wisdom and insight. I will def revisit this book. Listening to it with attention is meditative in itself.

Very nicely done.

Good concept just didn’t like that it tries to push Buddhism. It does make you feel better if you are going through a low point. I recommend this to anyone who is unhappy with their current situation.

Focus on the Present

A must read, such a peace of mind to know its contents, and read by the right voice for the message. Will listen again and again!

Eye-opener!

Enthusiastic commercial narration lacks a sense of comprehension and transmission of the direct experiences that the author repeatedly points to. Not a deal-breaker though. A good read.

Great text, narration could have more depth
