Arjuna ardagh biography of albert

Arjuna Ardagh is an awakening coach, he is the author of 7 books, including the 2005 bestseller, “Translucent Revolution.”  Arjuna is also the founder of the Living Essence Foundation, an organization which exists to celebrate and support the shifting global consciousness from separation to oneness.

Arjuna Ardagh talks about Radical awakening, which according to him is ‘essentially where we shift from being preoccupied with thoughts and feelings and shifting and changing experiences in our outer world. We shift from that to the recognition of who we are or what we are which is experiencing these things.’  His latest book, Leap Before you Look, offers 72 exercises on how to practice this shift.

He quotes Albert Einstein:  You cannot solve any problem in the same state of consciousness in which it was created.

Wise advice for the world today as we face all of the challenges and crises stemming from systems that just frankly aren’t working for us anymore.  In the midst of a fundamental breakdown there is tremendous potential for something new and powerful to be created. 

Ardagh reflects, ‘It is a beautiful time to live’. He is seeing many, many people becoming more open to shifting focus away from all of the changing events around them to what is constant – the “I” underneath all the layers of thoughts and sensations and activities.  In fact, it takes an upheaval or low point for many to be open to this kind of investigation- to have a desire for change in themselves in addition to external desires.

Some key points not to miss:

• The radical awakening positioned in today’s political context
• Learn how Ardagh’s method is distinct from traditional meditation
• Be the experience.  Participate in a guided exercise led by Ardagh
• Beyond individual practice, how coaching may help facilitate this type of shift
• For coaches, suggestions on how to partner with corporate management – working directly with people that have the powe

Why did Albert Einstein discover the general theory of relativity, Jane Goodall advance our understanding of primatology, and Steve Jobs change the way we think of computers and phones, while many other people live lives of quiet imitation? What are the components that contribute to an original and brilliant life?

In this highly innovative new book, Arjuna Ardagh shows us how brilliance can become more of a predictable outcome and less of an accident: when four very different kinds of activity and focus co-exist together.

When we can move freely through these four phases of the "Brilliance Cycle" each day, each week, each year, and during the life of a project, Ardagh suggests that every human being has the chance to make a unique contribution to the evolution of human consciousness.

As well as this map of the brilliance cycle, Radical Brilliance also covers many very practical factors that effect peak brain performance, including diet, sleep, supplements, sexuality, friendship, and vacations.

Review

The most essential quality for any powerful leader today is the capacity to innovate and to think things that have never been thought before. This book is a thorough and complete guidebook on how to do that.
Amy Elizabeth Fox ~ CEO, Mobius Executive Leadership

This is a great book for entrepreneurs and leaders to gain a fresh understanding of where they are in their creative process. Radical Brilliance is not a traditional business book, and is not afraid to unearth anything and everything that makes a real difference to innovation. You may be shocked, you may be unnerved, but you will certainly be transformed.

Based on hundreds of interviews with some of the most brilliant people alive, Arjuna Ardagh has created a tour-de-force: he has synthesized everything useful for a life of purpose and contribution. This is a must read for people whose lives are about making a difference. Arjuna is a radically brilliant writer and interviewer and will give every reader access to their best self. A beautiful piece of work.

Drawing upon the latest cutting-edge brain research and an extraordinarily wide and diverse range of tools and practices, this is a masterpiece in mapping the terrain of full human potential. Ivan Misner, Phd ~ author of Networking Like a Pro; Founder of BNI.

Perhaps this book should have been called “Your Brilliance,” because in an age of distraction and mediocrity, this book is an instruction manual for standing out, making a difference, and for brilliance itself. If it is your plan to live a compelling life, this book is for you.
