The Teachings of Babaji eBook Vladimir Antonov
There are some things I absolutely loved about this book (such as the timeless wisdom and inspiration from Babaji's words) and some things about that I felt left a lot to be desired. I knew buying the book that it was going to be short (about 50 pages not including the photographs) but I was ok with that. Babaji never gave lectures, he taught through example and through personally guiding his devotees on a case by case basis, into living lives based of love and service. He wasn't interested in starting a new religion but "changing the hearts of men", and perhaps because he understood the tendency of human beings to distort even the most beautiful of spiritual teachings, and he left us precious little formal words or "teachings" to follow. He taught people to live lives in accordance to the principles of "Truth, Simplicity, Love", and to cultivate the Devotion through the self-less service to humanity while repeating the name of God (Japa). His example was his teaching.I was curious to see how this book would attempt to capture this "teaching" in a mere 50 pages, so despite the negative review that another person posted, I decided to try it out and decide for myself.
The first "chapter", few pages, was a series of quotes of Babaji. Most of these I had already read from other sources. Since he didn't give long discourses these are generally a sentence of two each. My only criticism of this part is that I wish the individual who complied the book and put bullets in front of each separate quote. As when quotes, given at a different times, and within different contexts are run one into another, without any attempt to separate them or put them into proper context, the result comes across a bit disjointed. You have to read this section remembering that each sentence is different thought or teaching, rather than an integrated whole. The next section which compromised the majority of the book looked promising but I found rather disappointing. It was a reprint of a chapter from book called "Ecopsychology". The author of this section appears to be a Russian scientist who at some point met Babaji, and was attempting to integrate and understand his teachings of "Truth, Simplicity, and Love". His thoughts on the matter are at times interesting and insightful, but I felt they were inappropriate within a book titled "Teachings of Babaji" as they often reflected the authors own opinions and biases more than the actual teachings of Babaji. This is forgivable since few of us can be the perfect examples of unconditional love, yet I would hate for anyone to confuse the author's understanding of the teachings which may be limited, to represent the actual teachings of Babaji.
The last section called Conversations with Babaji, along with the poem/teaching called the "Head Wind" is the redeeming part of this book. Here some Babaji's actual words are presented which show some of the timeless wisdom, power, and deep compassion of this great Being. These last 12 pages alone, made this book worth the purchase.
I DO recommend this book, but with a few reservations. For someone not familiar with Babaji, his life and teachings, it may be hard to get a sense of his teachings from this book. I found "I am Harmony" to be a much better, in depth, representation of Babaji and his teachings. If the last 12 pages of this pamphlet peaks your interest in learning more about Babaji, then I highly recommend diving into the 370 pg book "I am Harmony" that gives a complete history as well as attempting share Babaji's teachings within the context of his life.

The Teachings of Babaji eBook Vladimir Antonov Reviews
This is a small but condense book about the main Teachings of this Master. I also like that they have inserted some of the Teacher pictures!
I enjoyed reading about The Teachings of Babaji. I resonate with them. This was an easy and enjoyable read. I highly recommend this book for anyone interested in learning more about a Mahavatar.
Great short book with lots of living information- worth buying in fact good to buy and share with others enjoy
'The Teachings Of Babaji' is a wonderful book. Babaji talks about the importance of Karma Yoga, of taking action in the world
in order to help others. This also opens the spiritual heart.
Babaji is not one to shy from controversy. His statements on prayer being one example.
This book is a must-buy.
