The Ten Thousand Things

The Ten Thousand Things

When I imagine speaking to a person who for the first time opens the pages of this book, I think of telling that person something like this: â€œYou are about to read an authentic and incredibly lucid account of what it is like to live in this world as an awakened being while simultaneously functioning as a personality with all of the usual habits and peculiarities of an individual self.â€ Robertâ€™s way of describing his understanding of the human existence from the point of view of an awakened personality is a revelation. His book is a fresh look at the questions that occur to anyone who thinks deeply about these matters, questions about free will, self-determination, destiny, choice, and who are we anyway.

I believe this is a â€œbreakthrough book.â€ Robertâ€™s style of writing about such ephemeral and difficult subjects as awareness and consciousness is honest, concise, and accurate. His ability to describe his experiences of living in a reality quite different from conventional ways of thinking is brilliantly unusual. On first encountering Robert Saltzmanâ€™s work, I am reminded of the same feelings of discovery, delight and excitement that I remember from meeting Alan Wattsâ€™ â€œThe Wisdom of Insecurityâ€, Krishnamurtiâ€™s â€œFreedom from the Known,â€ and ChÃ¶gyam Trungpaâ€™s â€œCutting Through Spiritual Materialism.â€

His clarity of mind shines brightly through every sentence in this book. His skill at making clear the most difficult ramifications and subtleties of awakened consciousness is so free of conventional cluttered thinking, so free of habitual phrases, so free of the taint of religious dogma and the conventional ways of speaking of such difficult matters, that this book stands out for me as an entirely fresh and illuminated exposition of awakened consciousness: an awakened understanding of what it is to be human.
