Books

I’m a writer. While most of my writing over the years has been technical, recently I’ve turned my attention and energy to books. I’ve got three underway.

Awakening as Your Unique Self (2020)

This book, slated to go to editors in January 2020, is derived from a retreat conceived by Dr. Marc Gafni and developed by Marc and several of us retreat leaders at Shalom Mountain. Once developed, four of us co-led this retreat several times over a span of a few years. This book translates the processes of that retreat into practices that the reader can do at home.

Mysteriotopia (2021)

This book is in its earliest stages. In it, I’ll describe an emerging “Theory of Loving” in which I will paint a portrait of a Universe in which Love is the animating force, pleasure is the guiding principle, and curiosity is the fundamental spiritual practice.

World Spirituality Practice Almanac (2022)

Co-authored with Dr. Marc Gafni, this is an epic project we started in 2011 and are set to give new life to in 2020. We are creating a catalogue of a diverse array of spiritual practices from across the great traditions, all designed to help the practitioner embody a realization of Evolutionary Unique Self.
