The hidden teaching beyond yoga
Everyone has this illusion: that the world is "out there" and you are somewhere "inside" and somehow knowledge of an external world is reflected in our mind. Here Brunton takes us step by step in dismantling the common view of experience, and turns experience inside out. He shows step by step how there is no outside, there is no basis for the belief in matter, and that all we experiences are contents of mind-- all experience including space and time is in and for and to mind. This will change your relation to the world. In the second and companion volume, The Wisdom of the Overself, Brunton explores the nature of the Mind to which the world and ego appear.

The King of the Dark Chamber
Raja (Bengali: রাজা), (also known as The King of the Dark Chamber in English translation), is a play by Rabindranath Tagore written in 1910. This play is marked as a symbolic play as well as a ‘mystic play’. The story is loosely borrowed from the Buddhist story of King Kush from Mahāvastu. A short stage version of Raja was published under the title of Arupratan in 1920. (Source: Wikipedia)
