There is a new book on the books page.
It is a collection of poetry and thoughts during my years as a monk living in the desert and travelling the world.
It is free so help yourself. Just send me an email to request a copy.
Thank you.

I would like to read about what was going through your mind during those years

Was it in my mind, or my heart or soul, who knows, and really it does not matter, it was me. I can say it was a great longing for a Union and Love that was beyond what people normally call love.

If I could put my feelings and thoughts into clear precise words, it would no longer be the pure feelings I felt. That is the essence of mystical literature, it has many levels of meaning beyond the literal words, and if the reader can read with their spirit and emotions, letting go of their thoughts and analysis of what the words mean or intellectually trying to understand what the author meant, then the reader has the chance of directly experiencing similar feelings, when the mind stops its questioning.
