This book from Andrew Cohen is on of my favorites. Its fresh, uncompromizing and incredibly clear in focus and intention, attention and evolutionary drive.
Special recommendation to the foreword of Ken Wilber!
http://www.livingenlightenment.com/foreword.asp
One quote from it /foreword) which speaks for itself:
!In short, if you are ready to recognize your own Original Face, if you are capable of standing in the very middle of a raging fire that will melt your Heart and open it to eternity, then you have come to th eright place. In the following pages you will see that Andrew Cohen is a Rude boy who acts with uncompromizing integrity, an integrity that shows compassion to your real Self and a very big stick to your ego. If you can stand the heat, then enter the realkitchen of your own soul, where you will find nothing other than the radiant God of the entire cosmos. For it is radiant Spirit that is looking out from your eyes right now, speaking with your tongue right now, reading th ewords on this page, right now. Your real Self is glorious Spirit in this and every moment, and it takes a very, very Rude boy to point that out and to stay in your face until you recognize your own Original Face, shining here and now."

cool! thanks for sharing this! i've been looking for this. now i bookmarked it so i don't lose it again.
~C (for Collector of Ken's and Andrew's stuff)
P.S. if you think Andrew is a rude boy, hah! look again! his well-trimmed moustache is no match for a guy named U.G. ;)
well.I am no student of Andrew but for 5 years of Adi Da. ..But I see these qualities in him.
Now I am no longer student of any special teacher. My own confessions come from the bleeding edge of breaking through body-minds worlds . See KW description in OT page123 (JUne 12)when he writes about skin hunger…)
Adi Da once said:
There is only Sex and God..everything else is something between…..
Now all this well balanced integral portfolio of perspectives, quadrants etc is only to avoid a nightmare in the relative world. Its good and necessary.
I dare say its revolutioary if…..yes if the approch is balanced with the absolute too.
Thereis a nice essay from David Deida with the title:
Ken Wilber is a fraud

So the quality of rude boys and nasty girls isnt limited to any names with Promi status we might share or not. Its the quality of REAL LIFE. Any other point ov view would be cultish.
See Kens foreword to “Scientific Proof of God Will Soon be Announced by the White House” with the title:
On Heroes and Cults
Thanx for your own blogging rudeness.):)

thanks for On Heroes and Cults! i haven't read this yet. i was too young and probably still climbing bayabas trees in the islands when this was written by a once foolish Ken Wilber. so i'm gonna bookmark it .
i will probably submit it to Rick Ross. just kidding. Rick Ross is already having a field day with Adi Da. i shall add no more insults to this poor old guy who has his own island in Fiji where he continues to dispense his kosmic teachings in his speedo underwear. ugh! he's not even that sexy!
you are a library of SCREWED teachers, Mr Albert Klamt. i like that. i bookmarked this blog post and tagged it as a tribute to YOU. there. we're now even :)
“Thanx for your own blogging rudeness.):)”
huh?! what? me? RUDE? preposterous! :)
