It's What's in Our Hearts that Matters Most

A story told to me by a Sufi Master I met while traveling in the summer of 2004 helps remind me of the importance of working to develop inner health through humble and authentic spiritual practice rather than just being externally righteous. It goes something like this: Two aspirants were on the way. As they were walking through the hills and mountains they happened upon a bustling village and decided to stay for the night. They had spent months ...

What's Your Monkey Trap?

In southeast Asia, a monkey trap is constructed from a hollow gourd with a single opening, just large enough for a monkey’s hand to fit in and out of. To load the trap, a hunter simply places a piece of bait in the gourd; a tempting slice of fruit works well. A hungry monkey reaches into the tethered gourd and clenches the fruit, but when he tries to take his hand out of the gourd, he finds that his fist is too big to get through the openin...

Stories from my Transformation Adventures

Just Like Everybody ElseThroughout the 1990s, I worked in an office virtually 365 days a year, running my health-food and publishing companies.

So at the age of 3...
