“Brian, Thanks for creating pnotes. It feels very good to do business with someone who understands how to create enormous value for their customers, without squeezing every dollar from their wallet. Awesome work. I'd easily pay 10x your price - which is less than the real dollar -> value translation I get from the notes.” ~ Zach
“PhilosophersNotes are the answer to a question that I've been asking myself a lot lately: How do I find the time to read all of the books that I want to read and still live a productive life? Think of these six page gems as movie trailers in the world of inspiring books, except that all of them are going to grab you. Not only because the books that Brian picks are the best of the best, but because of his amazing ability to extract the big ideas of each book and break them down into powerful, efficient, fun to read summaries. The ability to instantly apply this wisdom to my life coupled with the knowledge that makes it easy for me to decide what book I want to dive deeper into next makes PhilosophersNotes a priceless resource in my life.” ~ David Pearson, Zaadz Co-Founder, Consciousness Explorer






"Do we need the self? Yes, absolutely. Do we need to be identified with it 24 hours a day, 7 days a week? Absolutely not. Because when we’re identified with the self, as the self, we live in fear, we live in anxiety, we live in stress, we live in suffering. When we’re able to identify with that which has no boundaries, with Big Mind — it’s a name, you could call it many things, universal consciousness or whatever — when we’re no longer identified with the self, fear doesn’t come up. When we identify with that which is ungraspable, that which is unnameable, then there is absolutely no fear. We live in fearlessness" ~ Zen Master Dennis Genpo Merzel
