Awareness came up with a genuine on-air endorsement 14 times across the episodes we processed. This page collects every one of those moments: who said it, what they said, and the exact point in the episode.
Anthony de Mello's Awareness has 14 mentions on Tim Ferriss's show alone, a striking number for a single podcast to give one spiritual-psychology book. Ferriss has referenced it in the context of self-inquiry and letting go of illusions.
We gathered every one of those mentions with its exact quote and YouTube timestamp. If a book keeps coming back this often on one show, it usually means something in it actually stuck.
De Mello will takes you on a journey with his transcripts of lectures and enlightenment. This is not for the feint of heart. Dedicate time and let go ! This single book will change your life only for the better beyond what you may imagine!! Non denominational, although De Mello was a Jesuit Preist. The catholic church did not agree with the philosophies and had all literature removed! A POWERFUL READ !!! AWARENESS in every sense of the word transcends the norm of societal values to the pure and raw natural beings we truly are. Please see " THE WAY TO LOVE" also by Anthony de Mello!
