Here's a rare copy of a 1st edition of Wei Wu Wei book Open Secret. It's a treasure of a book, written by an awaken in 1965. It's the first book I ever read on non-dual studies and led me to Ramana Who Am I years later. This rare gem is a classic on non-duality and copy-right free! With love[/color] NBisH[/color] Preface As LONG AS subject is centered in a phenomenal object, and thinks and speaks therefrom, subject is identified with that object and is bound. As long as such condition obtains, the identified subject can never be free—for freedom is liberation from that identification. Abandonment of a phenomenal centre constitutes the only 'practice', and such abandonment is not an act volitionally performed by the identified subject, but a non-action (wu wei) leaving the noumenal centre in control of phenomenal activity, and free from fictitious interference by an imaginary 'self. Are you still thinking, looking, living, as from an imaginary phenomenal centre? As long as you do that you can never recognise your freedom. Could any statement be more classic? Could any statement be more obvious? Could any statement be more vital? Yet—East and West—how many observe it? So Could any statement be more needed?-[/color] www.mediafire.com/?cwhy95d0blz6n8y

Well this Wei-Wu-Wei was irish and very rich (money). He just loved "aesthetic writing about" non-dual stuff and went to meet a friend (Hubert Benoit) to talk about zen. Benoit said to me the guy never claimed to be an awaken.

Not sure if you know this but no truly awaken "person' would never claim to be awaken so you realty can't go by what others say. NBisH

I don't even know what might be a "truly awaken person" . But I don't have any reason not to believe nor Benoit nor WWW when the first said to me that the second told him he just enjoyed ideas, writing and having fun playing to be an old wise chinese. And, that truth does'nt help me from enjoying as well reading some of his writings...
