About this title

From the Back Cover

"A personal inward journey rich in insight into the path of retreat and meditation."
--Yoga Journal

"A captivating account of an ancient endeavor: the journey toward spiritual awakening. David Cooper does not sanitize his experience or hold back; he describes both the agony and the ecstasy, the heavenly and the hellish, with unadorned close-to-the-bone honesty. This book will encourage those who have traveledthese paths and will inspire those who haven't. It may well become a classic description of the spiritual odyssey."
--Larry Dossey, MD, author of Healing Words

"What this book does is see through the superficial question of 'What path are you following?' to reveal the crucial one which is 'What is the purpose of your spiritual practice?' David Cooper seems clear that we practice in order to reconnect with the kindness and compassion which is our essential nature."
--Sylvia Boorstein, co-found of Spirit Rock Meditation Center
