Higher Ground: Journals of Jaguar Monk

For over four decades Paul Jensen has played guitar, composed music, traveled, and written in journals. Although writing appears very different from creating music, he never differentiated between the two of them.

In "Higher Ground: Journals of a Jaguar Monk," Jensen offers a myriad of sparse yet personal journal excerpts, glimpses into the beautiful times spent in nature over the years. From riding trains cross-country to driving solo through the desert, and from east coast to west, he has always sought the elusive "now."

Perhaps this writing will shed some light on Jensen's life's journey of seeking "Higher Ground" in the simplest ways, with the words of the masters in his heart.
