""Nothing Wrong Anymore"" is a collection of short essays and dialogues that explore the nature of psychological suffering, the spiritual journey, and the resolution of both. Drawing from personal experience, through a mix of inquiries and direct prompts, the author challenges the reader to investigate and question deeply rooted assumptions about identity, consciousness, and the nature of inner peace.

Key themes include:

The false belief in a separate self as the root of suffering and the foundation of a hurting false personality. Awakening, not as the discovery of something new, but as a recognition of what is most natural and present. How some forms of psychological suffering can persist after awakening, highlighting the need to adjust the focus of one's spiritual work. Recognizing patterns in the personality and their implications in our experience of being. Spiritual Realization, not as an achievement, but as the dissolution of a projection.

""Nothing Wrong Anymore"" offers a unique blend of deep wisdom and practical insights, inviting readers to explore the possibility of freedom from psychological suffering through trading one's seeker's robes for a mop and bucket and cleaning up any remaining psychological clutter once and for all.

In his early twenties, driven by a desire for inner peace, Felipe Oliveira found himself in a 4th Way school in the Gurdjieff-Ouspensky tradition. This experience gave him valuable insights into the human psyche. A turning point came when a book by John Wheeler sparked a self-inquiry into ""the truth of I,"" leading to a Revelation of our True Nature of Consciousness. Yet, soon after the so-called Awakening, something still felt wrong. The suffering returned. Felipe then went on a journey, interacting with Non-Duality teachers like John Wheeler, Bob Adamson, Gangaji, Wayne Liquorman, Tony Parsons, Adyashanti, and Francis Lucille. During this time, he published a book of poems titled ""Only You,"" about seeking and his spiritual experiences. At some point, he wondered: ""Why and how does the ego create so much unnecessary psychological suffering? This led him to explore psychological tools to specifically unravel the complexities of the ego. Eventually, the sense of separation dissolved, and the psychological suffering and seeking ceased. As Nisargadatta Maharaj once said, ""The mind must be known."" For Felipe, this thorough investigation proved to be the key out of his spiritual quandary. Felipe now shares what he has learned and unlearned in the winding as well as the direct paths, shedding light on mental and emotional obstacles and hinting at the ever-present peace that lies beyond them.
