The Unbound Heart

You might consider this a book about spirituality but, really, it is about life-your life and how to live it authentically, to the fullest. The words in these pages will encourage you to look not outside of yourself but to your own heart and mind to understand yourself, the world, and your place in it. It will encourage you to take responsibility for your own life, to blaze your own trail, to sculpt your own being.Another way to think about this book is as a kind of Traveler's Guide-a collection of maps, compasses, and other tools from the world's wisdom traditions-to support you as you learn to walk your own path in peace. I want you to be able to live in your own skin. I want you to make peace with Nature, to come into harmony with the Dharma, the truth of the moment's experience, so that you may navigate your life, your relationships, your work and your art with a bit more ease, a bit more freedom, a bit more love and understanding.May you feel safe and secure on your journey. May you have profound experiences of truth, beauty, and goodness. May you establish deep and meaningful relationships-with yourself, with others, and with the natural world around you. May you know Love directly. May you embody a lasting peace.
