Synopsis
"You are already that which you long to be." These words, the last Jeru Kabbal wrote before he died, sum up the philosophy of a man who touched thousands of lives in the course of 30 years of teaching about paths to inner peace, emotional growth, and compassionate behavior. Kabbal developed his Finding Clarity Process over decades of spiritual exploration in both Eastern belief systems and Western philosophy and science. This collection drawn from his writings and workshops provides a guide to the essentials of his transformational teachings.
About the Author
Jeru Kabbal was a twentieth-century spiritual teacher and guide. Born in 1930 in the United States as Richard Dorin Shoulders, he studied traditional Western psychology in his younger years and found it very limited. However, he was irrevocably committed to and passionate about understanding and going beyond the mind. He became devoted to understanding how we as human beings could improve the quality of our life and relationships. He studied with several spiritual teachers in the East, including Osho, and became particularly drawn to the teachings of Krishnamurti, Nisargadatta, and Ramana Maharishi, as well as to the mystical elements of Christianity. However, he was always an independent spiritual thinker. For several years he conducted workshops called Dehypnotherapy, out of which the Clarity Process originated. After a prolonged solitary retreat, in about 1990, he chose to call himself Jeru Kabbal. He died in 2000.
