Living from the Heart
A collection of teachings about the Heart, including:
Part 1: From the Heart: Dropping out of Your Mind and Into Your Being: Offers simple ways to shift into a more open and accepting perspective and to experience your true nature as aware space.
Part 2: The Heart's Wisdom: Points the reader back to the Heart, the truest source of wisdom.
Part 3: Love Is for Giving, Not for Getting: Points to the true source of love in your own Heart. It is by giving love that we are filled with love.
If you have enjoyed Eckhart Tolle’s bestselling nondual books, The Power of Now and A New Earth: Awakening to Your Life’s Purpose or Byron Katie’s The Work, then you will find Living from the Heart especially beneficial. It offers practical tools and meditations for being in the now in everyday life by accessing the wisdom and Presence available in every moment in the Heart.

Beyond No Self
Beyond No Self explores the fullness of Being found in the absence of a separate self. It ends with a simple fairytale that offers a sense of how one Being can appear as so many. Here is an excerpt from this nondual book:
How can that be—empty space that is full of everything that matters? The mind cannot grasp it fully, as presence exists beyond concepts and even beyond its own forms; and yet, that is what you are. You can experience it with more subtle senses than the physical senses and the mind. Ultimately, you “sense” it by being it. You just are this full empty presence.
It is this second movement of realization of essence, presence, and fullness of Being that counteracts the belief that since I (as ego) do not exist, therefore nothing exists and all is illusion. It gives a heartfelt sense of meaning and purpose back to this relative life of the body and mind, not as a means of gratification to your idea of yourself, but as a pure expression of the wonder and beauty of this deeper reality. Instead of living a life in service to the ego’s wants and needs, you can find yourself fulfilling the deepest purposes of a human life: to serve and express freedom, joy, beauty, peace and love. By itself the realization of no-self can end up dry and lifeless, but when the heart opens wide to the bigger truth of the true Self, life is anything but dry and lifeless.

Nothing Personal: Seeing Beyond the Illusion of a Separate Self
In this concisely edited collection of Advaita satsang talks and dialogues, Nirmala "welcomes whatever arises within the field of experience. In the midst of this welcoming is always an invitation to inquire deeply within, to the core of who and what you are. Again and again, Nirmala points the questions back to the questioner and beyond to the very source of existence itself—to the faceless awareness that holds both the question and the questioner in a timeless embrace.” -from the foreword by Adyashanti to this nondual book.

Radiance: Experiencing Divine Presence
This 50-page free ebook by Gina Lake, Nirmala's wife, shows you how to experience the Divine in the world in simple ways by being very present. It is possible to experience the mysterious truth that everything is an expression of the Divine by paying close attention to the many signs that reveal this great Mystery. Radiance: Experiencing Divine Presence points out these clues so that you can more easily recognize yourself as the Divine—that which is creating and has created this you that you think you are and all that this you is experiencing. It had this effect on one reader: "Your words are of great joy to me and very comforting…my heart expanded so much, I thought it would burst." It was given to Gina by Theo, the six-dimensional teacher she has been working with for over twenty years.
