That Which We Already Know

This is a book about stillness of mind. Part childhood memoir, part spiritual enquiry, part psychological and philosophical exploration, That Which We Already Know paints a picture of our fall from grace-our separation from the natural world-and our ultimate redemption via the recollection of childhood truth: that we arise in this world with an innate capacity to experience stillness.

Drawing from the author’s extensive Zen practice as well as his more traditional Christian upbringing, That Which We Already Know clearly illuminates the human condition and a path toward greater wholeness. Readers of all spiritual traditions as well as those who claim no such tradition at all will find themselves and their experience in this book.

The path to greater wholeness is not mysterious. In fact, there is nothing for us to learn in this regard. We simply need ease our adopted selves out of the way in order to realize how very much we already know.
