Subtraction: The Simple Math of Enlightenment

A searingly honest portrayal of the search for spiritual enlightenment. "This book answers the question of how do you find the answer to who and what you are—ultimately—beyond any shadow of a doubt—beyond the body, and beyond the mind." This true story of friendship, love, and the darkest nights of the soul, follows a young spiritual seeker who drops out of school and spends the next decade in a spiritual search that leads from a Zen master in the wilds of West Virginia, to an iconoclastic Christian mystic in the heart of Los Angeles, and an architect-turned-sage in England. Entertaining storytelling combined with practical tips on spiritual disciplines and lessons from the path of spiritual awakening make this a must-have edition for those both curious and passionate about the mysteries of life, death, and enlightenment. "Deserves a prominent place on any bookshelf of nonduality, mindfulness, or meditation titles."
