<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Every verse and episode of the story of Jesus is a profound metaphor for the experience of spiritual awakening. Now in paperback, <i>Resurrecting Jesus</i> brings readers an exploration of the transmission of infinite love that Jesus represents--and how that love revolutionizes the world.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>For almost two millennia, the story of Jesus has shaped the lives of countless people. Yet today, even though the majority of us grew up in a culture suffused by the mythos of Jesus, many of us feel disconnected from the essence of his teachings. With <i>Resurrecting Jesus, </i> Adyashanti invites us to rediscover the life and words of Jesus as a direct path to the most radical of transformations: spiritual awakening. <p/>Jesus crossed all of the boundaries that separated the people of his time because he viewed the world from the perspective of what unites us, not what divides us. In <i>Resurrecting Jesus</i>, Adya embarks on a fascinating reconsideration of the man known as Jesus, examining his life from birth to Resurrection to reveal a timeless model of awakening and enlightened engagement with the world. Through close consideration of the archetypal figures and events of the Gospels, Adya issues a call to live the Christ in a way that is unique to each of us. <p/>When the eternal and the human meet, writes Adya, <i>that's</i> where love is born--not through escaping our humanity or trying to disappear into transcendence, but through finding that place where they come into union. <i>Resurrecting Jesus</i> is a book for realizing this union in your own life, with heart and mind wide open to the mystery inside us all. <p/> With an all-new foreword by Episcopalian priest and scholar Cynthia Bourgeault.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p><b>Adyashanti</b><br>Adyashanti is an American-born spiritual teacher devoted to serving the awakening of all beings.
