The poems John shares in this collection are deeply personal. They offer a glimpse into decades of devoted practice–living out the teachings of the Buddhist masters of our age. His poems transport readers to a cave in Nepal, a hut in Tibet, and along the banks of a Wyoming river. But, perhaps, John’s greatest gift is his direct transmission of the Dharma to his audience.
Inside the pages of this book readers get a good look inside the mind of a man on a spiritual oddessy. It depicts reflections on navigating a Buddhist trek of human experience. Filled with devotional insights (sometimes raw, often humorous and painful, and occasionally rebellious) the book is a delightful read and a refreshing taste of spirituality.
In this rich sampling of John’s poems–64 of them–he provides deep insight into Buddhist teachings and the path to relieve suffering. The book’s compact size makes this collection a wonderful trekking companion.
