This is a journey into the world of secular spirituality. Bypassing traditional religions it is nonetheless deeply rooted in the wisdom left behind by those who inspired them.
It is also the story of a quest. It is the quest for the key to surrender. It is not just the how of it, but also the what. What is it that one surrenders to? Who/what exactly is God, and how do we create a rapport with this great unknown? This book is for all those who wondered…
From the Introduction
One day, in between a pair of hurricanes in Florida, I stepped into a Buddhist Temple located in a mini strip mall on the edge of the Everglades. I had heard that there was a traveling collection of the relics of the Buddha, which was worth the visit. I had no idea as to the import of this event, and had only allowed two hours for what I thought was merely a curiosity. This “curiosity” changed my life.
I discovered the ability to open to a profound state of heart and mind consciousness and facilitate others in this process. Coupled with studies on Quantum Mechanics and the nature of human psychology, this provided a whole new perspective on Divinity and consciousness.
I thought that this was simply my telling the story of the discovery of a tool for healing and personal growth. Somewhere along the way the story began to rewrite me. In my quest to understand what it was that I had experienced, I stepped into the proverbial rabbit-hole and lost all interest in returning.
