About this title

Synopsis

Divinity in Disguise is a first-of-a-kind collection of "nested meditations"--not quite a poem, not quite a prayer, not quite like anything you've read before. This book contains 76 of these new meditations, each accompanied by a brief reflection and soul-stirring quotations. Divinity in Disguise contains meditations on God, the sacred self, relationships, money, work, brokenness, sex, death, joy and more.

A nested meditation is a brief, accessible written meditation that begins with a single line, then adds one line at a time. As each line is added, the meaning of the piece shifts. Here's a sample (note that nested meditations are untitled):

Do you have the time?

Do you have the time
of your life?

Do you have the time
of your life
or does someone else perhaps?

Do you have the
time of your life
or does someone else? Perhaps
it's later than you think.

The idea is to use simple language and subtle wordplay to probe several layers of meaning beneath the surface of our day-to-day experience.

Find still water.

Find still water
in any storm by going deep.

Find still water
in any storm by going deep
beneath the surface tumult.

Find still water
in any storm by going deep.
Beneath the surface tumult
the sacred self dances like seaweed.
