Doing Nothing: Coming to the End of the Spiritual Search

Doing Nothing, the spiritual classic by Steven Harrison translated into twelve languages, offers relief to the weary seeker. In a world that's always encouraging us to do more, Harrison invites us to make the simple yet radical choice to do nothing.

Discard your ideologies and dogmas, your gurus and ritual, argues Harrison in this caustic exploration of our psycho spiritual obsessions. The solution lies in not seeking a solution. Doing Nothing: Coming to the End of the Spiritual Search is for those who have found themselves religiously following practices that have not fundamentally changed their lives: new therapies, ancient meditations, exotic religions, or old-time religion. It encourages them to find the truths of life through the simple act of stopping the search.

What do you do after you've tried everything to find enlightenment or happiness? "Do nothing," writes Steven Harrison. "As it turns out, nothing is a surprisingly active place, but it is here that we discover who and what we are."

Steven Harrison, who has helped guide readers to the experience of the present without practices, is an international speaker on the topics of consciousness, human development, relationship, and alternative education. He is the author of twelve books.
