About the Book

It is a fact that answers come only to questions, and the better the question, the better the answer is likely to be. A book like this is not meant to be read like any other. There is no point to “going on” just to say, “I read that book.” The guidance of one of my teachers applies here: “Stay where there’s fruit.” If a question rankles, disturbs or upsets you, take it to your “quiet place,” and sit with it, letting it dissolve into your mind like a piece of rock candy dissolves slowly on your tongue. This other counsel from the medieval scholastics (“Non multa sed multum”) also applies. Freely translated: “It’s not knowing many things that satisfies the soul but knowing a few quality things deeply.” A superlatively good question taken to heart can change a life. (Caveat Lector: Let the reader beware.) If you are not ready, willing and open to change of perspective and behavior, STOP. Don’t read this book. It will be too dangerous to the status quo. Forewarned is forearmed.


About the Author

Robert Colacurcio has been practicing the methodology of the Buddha’s spiritual technology for over thirty five years under the guidance of some of the most accomplished meditation masters in the Vajrayana lineage of Buddhism. Earlier in his life he studied to become a Jesuit priest, and earned his PhD from Fordham University in philosophy. His spiritual background includes two years at the New York Zendo, extensive study in the Human Potential Movement under the direction of Claudio Naranjo and Oscar Ichazo. His journey then took him to a Sufi commune learning the disciplines of the Russian savant, G.I. Gurdjieff. He is also deeply indebted to the works of Carlos Castaneda, Robert Pirsig and Jane Roberts. He currently lives with his wife, Carol, in a suburb of Richmond, Virginia, and delights with pride in the growth and constant source of revelation that are his children and grandchildren.
