About

The Ashes of Love features 280 sayings by Rupert Spira, taken from conversations with friends over a three year period.

From the Foreword by Monique Proulx: ‘This book is a distillation of penetrating statements gleaned from the numerous teachings of Rupert Spira: at times borrowing the musicality of a haiku, the terseness of a pith instruction or the persuasive power of an oration. But no matter its shape, each one bears the treasure of a full teaching ....Rupert Spira is an artist. He sculpts words into condensed forms of pure intelligence to which there is nothing to be added or removed. He sculpts our understanding until it becomes pure light, pure flame. Truth seekers familiar with his teaching will find its essence here: concise, sharp as a diamond, overwhelming with its awesome higher reasoning, whilst bathing us in unconditional love. Others will be struck by the clarity and profundity of Reality as conveyed by this master of Advaita, and illumined by the glimpse of an inner revolution.’


‘Be only Being. Know only Knowing. Love only Loving.’ – Rupert Spira

Amazon Reviews

'I like this book because it’s set up in clear concise… For anyone into Advaita Vedanta or Non-duality, Rupert Spira has got to be the clearest voice of millennia, not only blazingly clear and providing insight into mysteries which some of us have pondered for years, but also in such a way that leads to direct experience. I like this book because it's set up in clear, concise 'sayings' rather than the ongoing dialogue which is also great in Rupert's other books but sets this one apart.'

'Beautiful book! Rupert Spira is the best teacher of non-duality that I have come across. His words are poetic and profound, and this little book is an absolute gem. With each word, I find my ego dissolving and becoming more in touch with reality. He is changing my life and my perspective and I hope to have the pleasure of thanking him in person one day.'

'One of the best teachers I have discovered in many years. This little gem of a book gives a synopsis of Rupert's teachings in short paragraphs which are very easy to meditate on. Would highly recommend this and all of his other (longer) books to anyone.'
