    Great Effort !This book is amazing to me. It give you the opportunity to not only read about those teacher but connect with some of them. It is a great opportunity to see different teachers respond to the same questions from a different point of vew helping us to discern better.I love especially John de Ruiter, David Ciussi and Pamela.Teachers of One Living Advaita is a similar book with 2 or 3 teachers that are in both books. Although I prefer the interviewer in Teachers of One Living Advaita, this one is a great book. 5A wealth of contactsHere in one book the reader gets to meet over a dozen people worth contacting. Each interview/dialogue provides the opportunity to find out how these teachers relate in their own ways to the various subjects and disciplines associated with spriritual growth here in the west. I was especially impressed with the sections introducing Eckhart Tolle and Saniel Bonder. Both of these men have written books that I have found of extraordinary use throughout my daily life. I read them over an over and learn something new each time. I suspect that re-reading Dialogues With Emerging Spiritual Teachers will also prove to be of this same level of value. I look forward to doing just that and encourage anyone interested in this aspect of your life to add this book to your library and experience. 4A Good First AttemptI think that any book compiling endeavour of this sort must fail.The "Emerging Spiritual Teachers" that John Parker has written about are already established teachers. John de Ruiter for instance has already been teaching for 16 years!Another failing is that many authentic teachers are little known or completely unknown. This is not reflected in the book.Today, many people feel their teacher should emulate Ramana Maharshi, but the move towards Maharshi from the West only came after his death. Westerners don't fit into diapers, which were the Maharshi's de rigeur wear, as well as sadhus.I would be more interested in seeing reviews of really new teachers who are modestly achieving phenomenal results. They work outside of the restrictive paradigm of what a teacher should do and look like which has turned to spirituality away from the razor's edge and back to the boring sameness of the vicar's tea party. Another cucumber sandwich, anyone?My bets are on enlightenment teacher Dave Oshana, a little known UK-born man who has been causing ripples through the seeking world. There we will find new and exciting paradimatic and perspective shifts.Ella 3A tremendous service to spiritual seekers everywhere!Why wander the far corners of the globe, strain past almost indecipherable accents, and catch exotic diseases, when everything you've ever really wanted to know is readily available right here in your own backyard, ripe for the picking? Asking simple questions, in clear, concise language, free of beliefs and dogmas, John has interviewed a number of spiritual "heavies" that are most definitely worth checking out. Having personally the good fortune to have spent several decades immersed in Eastern teachers and traditions, as well as having spent quality time with several of the teachers interviewed in John's book, I can with sincerity say, that what is now currently available in the west is every bit as profound and true as anything that has historically been available on the other side of the world. In particular, John's interviews with Saniel Bonder and John de Ruiter are worth noting. You don't have to sweep ashram floors for years on end to receive spiritual truths. Thanks to this book, you can directly e-mail most of the illuminaries interviewed by John. What an extraordinary opportunity. Thank you John Parker! 5No one is left out now.Three marvelous insights from reading John Parker's "Dialogues with Emerging Spiritual Teachers." The wide variety of teachers that have come to us as a gift so that no one is left out of the transcendental "Me." Then there is a wide background of all these men and women pointing again that now there is no excuse for waiting any more for any of us. And thirdly there is the wonderful way John Parker elicits from all, answers that come from the innermost of their being. How lucky we all are, in this fantastic and atrocious times to have such guides! 5More and more of them show up in Marin County every dayOne compelling phenomenon of the last twenty years has been the appearance of Western spiritual teachers who practiceindependently of particular traditions and religious structures. Interviewer John Parker's openhearted questions introduce readers to fourteen up-and-coming teachers who pepper the contemporary spiritual landscape with their diverse forms and teachings. Some are grounded in Vedantic and Christian traditions, while others present more eclectic uncategorizable teachings.The cast includes Eckhart Tolle, John Sherman, Mira, Byron Katie, and Howard Badhand. Some have studied with controversial teachers such as Adi Dam (AKA Da Free John, among other names), some with Indian gurus, and others just had spontaneous revelations.The question arises among many spiritually-inclined folks of how one selects which teachers to study with. There seem to be so many of them nowadays. So with this in mind, this book is helpful for getting a good idea what is out there in the spiritual marketplace.All in all, I found this to be an easy read, and though I had some problems with the graphical presentation (I have very high standards here), it's not worth knocking the ranking down to a "4"! 5inspiringIf you are looking for stories of teachers who got what you don't seem to have, you may more or less enjoy this book. It will keep Liberation at a safe distance: only for the few "awakened ones" and not (yet) for you, the reader.If you really want to know what true awakening is, you'd better read Tony Parson's book "As It Is". Or a book from Steven Harrison or Chuck Hillig.I am disappointed the whole enlightenment issue is sometimes personalised in this book. Not all the teachers in these interviews do so, I know, but one has to be careful, here. People tend to turn these guys into spiritual heroes. Several claim to be awakened, or to be special - or at least they allow people to day so. And I am sure they really are special: it is indeed very inspiring and powerful to be around with those teachers, to connect with them, to listen to them. The resonance may be very powerful. A lot of readers however may be confused about all that. Liberation has nothing to do with a person, and even less with perfection or holiness (as is suggested in a lot of books from the East). Remember: awakening has nothing to do with me or Ramana or Nisargadatta or John or Thimothee or Eckhart, it is about That which we all share. And when we keep that in mind, this book is very inspiring, indeed. And highly recommended.If you like interviews, you may also read "the awakening west". I interviewed myself some of these teachers in those 2 books, like Mira, Tony Parsons, Douglas Harding, Eckhart Tolle and Francis Lucille, to name a few, and can indeed confirm you that seeing these people may be very inspiring indeed. Just don't get confused by the personal stories, use them as pointers to the infinite.Jan Kersschot, author of "Nobody Home" 4
