The Mole and the Mountain: A little book about finding freedom

Among the many tasks each of us face in life - beyond navigating its rocky shoals and overcoming its' seemingly insurmountable difficulties and conflict - is the cultivation of wisdom, which seeks to understand not only the deep lessons hidden in each unique difficulty and conflict, but more profoundly in ourselves, in the one who seeks to overcome them, in the attitude we bring to overcoming them. Jane Gunn has written a guide to acquiring this wisdom. It is written in the language of metaphor, rather than the language of fact, as befits a search for wisdom. But the true story is the one that will be created by you, the reader, the story of your own "wild and precious life," and what you choose to do with it. This book is a compass that will help you find your own true North. - Kenneth Cloke, author of The Magic in Mediation.
