ONE: Essential Writings on Nonduality Amazon.com | Amazon.co.uk | Kindle

I call Jerry the forefather of modern, internet nonduality. ... I read your book early in my seeking days and the thing I liked about it is that it let me know that nonduality is something that's been around in all the traditions. Your book gave me context to know that this is a truth that's been around a long time and somewhat of a basis of major religions, which helped me to relax into the inquiry a little bit more, because the mind in the beginning was resisting figuring what is this all about: Where is it coming from? Will I go insane? Will I die? -Scott Kiloby

This is without doubt the finest collection of Nonduality-flavored writings available today. -Jeff Foster

Before reading your book, I was not as aware or awake as I am now. I'm running into knowledge at an ever increasing rate and this is a very unusual state of being for me. -JT

...love the book. It explains everything I "feel" in regards to nonduality but can't quite articulate to family and friends. In my business, (I have sixty staff) I’ve introduced some of the principles and triggered a thirst for more ….. A big thanxx from Australia. -WMT

To bring [nonduality] down to public consciousness is in many ways an absolute gift. Thanks for writing ONE. ... Thanks for opening my eyes to nonduality ... We hope to talk to you again. --Rollye James, Coast to Coast AM

What is Nonduality?

Nonduality: there are not two things. (There is not one thing.)

From the book Only That: The Life and Teaching of Sailor Bob Adamson, Kalyani Lawry:

Non-duality -- one without a second. We say without a second, because even the idea of one implies that there could be other than one. So when we say that without a second, it cancels that concept or belief that there could be anything other than one. Even that one is a concept to try and explain omnipotence, omnipresence; total presence, total power, total intelligence.
...
[Non-duality is] cognising-emptiness. Emptiness suffused with knowingness. Look out there in nature and you see that the entire manifestation, which is all appearance, is suffused with that innate intelligence -- the shape of a tree, the insect, the bird, the human forms, the galaxies, the patterns -- it all implies that it's suffused with an intelligence, a livingness or a vitality. ... I use the term intelligence energy, but even the term intelligence energy is not it. ... Intelligence energy is the activity of knowing. And that's what each and every appearance is here right now. That activity of knowing is happening. That is what you are and that's nothing that can be grasped with a concept or a thought.

From the book How to Attain Enlightenment: The Vision of Nonduality, by James Swartz:

Non-dual reality means that there is only one principle operating in reality, not two or more, appearances to the contrary notwithstanding. It means that the subject and the objects are actually non-different, although they seem to be different.
