Publisher's Synopsis
Enlightenment Behind Bars is a compilation of spiritual lessons. What is unique about this literary collection is that it was written by nine men and one woman while incarcerated in prison. With an accumulated total of nearly 200 years behind bars, their fortitude and ability to obtain spiritual growth while in the "Belly of the Beast" speaks volumes in and of itself.
Meet each as they share their journey of awakening. Each writer includes several lessons on spirituality to inspire you to awaken more fully. They also include spiritual practices such as meditation and unique artforms that have helped move them further on their awakening path.
