Healing through Pure Mindfulness guides us through the transformations of consciousness that lead to the realization of nirvana. This process begins at our human personality or ego-state level. On this level, we are all dominated ruthlessly by our ruling passions, the compulsive conditioning of our fixations, our harmful, instinctual energy patterns. These include the chief features or fixations of the various personality types. Foremost among all of these harmful patterns are greed, hate, and delusion, the principal mental infections spreading psychological torment that is harmful to our health and well being. This healing leads from three-dimensional consciousness that roams about in the realm of samsaräthe cycle of contamination, action, and consequence (kilesa, karma, and vipaka)¿represented by Shakespeare¿s Hamlet, to four-dimensional consciousness, a realm outside normal human experience. Here ends the samsaric journey and begins immediately the entrance into the ever-lasting flow of nirvana.

When a near stranger contacts the author in New York City after Hurricane Katrina, Hall decides to invite him in as a roommate until he "gets back on his feet." That never happens, and over two and a half years, as the relationship deepens, the questions about the new friend's past only grow in number. The author battles between compassion and tough love, between trust and suspicion. Through all of this, Hall also examines his own past and the difficulties he overcame that gave him strength. This memoir invites us to ask: Having experienced an almost fatal wounding of our hearts, can we still open our hearts to allow in the love that heals? Can we find hope that transcends the tragedies of our lives?
