Synopsis

The Earth is trying to teach us to live better. To lead richer, happier lives.

Will we continue down the limited path of the mechanical mind?

Or will we tune into ultimate intelligence? The same intelligence that allows blood to flow through our veins, bees to pollinate flowers, birds to fly south, salmon to spawn, whales to migrate, caterpillars to become butterflies, the Earth to rotate, the moon to orbit, and the rest of nature to function perfectly of its own accord?

We have access to nature’s silent message—if we take the time to listen.

In this spellbinding collection, Stillman guides us from the lush forests of the North Cascades, through the sandstone slot canyons of Utah, and into the border country of extreme southern Arizona. In this classroom, we learn not from books, nor words, nor lectures. Wilderness is the school of life, where we learn not from that which thinks—but that which knows.

Nature’s Silent Message suggests the existence of something far greater than what we see on the surface. It’s about breaking through old patterns so that new ones may emerge.

The message is simple and pure, but when you try to define it, it vanishes into thin air. And in that vanishing, you find it again. Like a beautiful butterfly that can never be caught. Try and catch her and she’ll drive you mad, eluding you forever. But learn to fly with her, and all the wonders of the world will be shown, and all the answers to your questions be known.

Get it now.

About the Author

Scott Stillman is bestselling author of Wilderness, The Gateway To The Soul, Nature's Silent Message, and I Don't Want To Grow Up.

Scott was born in Fairfield, Ohio, then moved to Boulder, Colorado in 2003. Backpacking extensively through the mountains and deserts of the American West, he records his journeys with pen and notebook, writing primarily about our spiritual connection to nature.

As our culture continues to remove itself from the natural world, Scott's books provide refreshing insight that there's life outside the regiment—hope beyond the pavement.

He and his wife, Valerie, have lived in a truck camper and worked a slew of unconventional jobs to fund their travels and stay on the wilderness path.
