Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Atmananda Krishna Menon stands among the foremost modern exponents of Advaita Vedānta. A householder by life circumstance and a Police Officer by profession, he governed those under his charge, subordinates and offenders alike, with love and compassion alone.In his earnest search for a true Guru, his prayers were answered when his Guru from Calcutta appeared and accepted him as a disciple. Under his Guru's subtle guidance, Atmananda undertook sincere sādhana in bhakti, yoga, and jñāna. Within four years, through his Guru's grace, he realized the Supreme Truth and was bestowed the name Atmananda.Spiritual seekers, both Indian and foreign, came to him for instruction. In his discourses, Atmananda blended rigorous reasoning with profound simplicity, illuminating how deep sleep and the intervals between thoughts serve as direct gateways to the natural state of the Self (Ātma). His essential philosophy is distilled in two concise works: Atma Darshan and Atma Nirvriti.Among his devoted disciples, Sri K.A. K. Karunakaran, gifted with an extraordinary memory, faithfully recorded Atmananda's talks verbatim, in the first person. The compilation, meticulously organized by Dr. N. Narayana Pillai and Sri Rajeev Narayanan, preserves the purity of the Master's voice. It stands as both a record of rare philosophical brilliance and a luminous guide to Self-realization, inviting every earnest seeker to discover the eternal truth: The Self alone is real.
