About this ebook

Eli Jaxon-Bear presents a radically new model of the ego and the psyche. Bringing together his background in Buddhism with the Sufi work on essence, he presents a fresh approach to awakening using the Enneagram's nine fixated structures of ego to clearly describe who you are not.
You will see how habits of egoic identification continuously appear to veil the pure, pristine consciousness that you truly are. When habits of mind are exposed, there is a clear choice to end the bondage of ego-based suffering and to realize the vast, inherent freedom of ones true nature.
In this book, Eli gives us the map of the prison of mind and the keys to freedom.

"Eli's profound teaching of the Enneagram is support for true self-investigation. His model of the ego is useful for all seekers after truth. He shows the traps of mind and the possibility of waking up from the trance of suffering." - Gangaji

    My sister had given this to me. She was into using its insights for the liberation aspect of the book. I'm not worried about liberation. However, this is still the best book I've read in terms of nailing the enneagram types. After reading this, I could really see them in action both in myself and other people. Though I'm not swallowing the spiritual development aspect of the book, I still appreciate it emphasizing the ways in which our inclinations trip us up and at times would be best resisted or unraveled. It helps me put my impulses, as well as the reactions of others, into perspective. It provides points for looking at things more objectively and compassionately.
