Publisher's Synopsis
If you think meditation is just about being quiet and "peaced out," think again!
This is a meditation companion unlike any other, offering a collection of passages, essays, and poetry that will make you laugh, cringe, or maybe even incite anger, as well as radiate the peace and calm you would expect from this type of guide.
Author Larry Li bravely bares his heart and soul in MeditationSwerve with the aim of helping you discover transformative power through the vast range of human emotion-which is what makes meditation a truly authentic experience.
Meditation, Larry teaches, is about being nonjudgmental. It's about directing your energy inward, exploring yourself-both the negative and the positive-and recognizing there is more to you than your fears and desires.
Stressing self-mastery, honesty, and compassion, MeditationSwerve awakens the spirit and opens the door to unlimited possibility. Larry's inventiveness and enthusiasm will inspire you to try meditation. He shows you how to become your own guru by finding the path that best suits your personality and needs.
Included inside the book is a black and white art gallery of oil paintings by Larry's second meditation teacher who is a master artist, healer, and meditator.
