Jim Quartieri

I moved to Berkeley, California in 1973 and then in 1997 came to Sacramento. My initial transition from Tibetan Buddhism to the teachings of Avatar Meher Baba expanded my awareness and love for India.

The natural environment has always been an integral attribute in my life, therefore the closeness with the land in Where The River Meets The Sky, and in particular, the river, is emphasized.

My writings center on finding the beauty and simplicity in life, in every moment to moment response, through oneness with all things. In step with the dance of impermanence, I seek God within to explore the profundity of the human condition, through love. My symbology is the world of nature and its connectivity to people: creating a circle effect whereby indivisibility is inherently integral in all that we do. As we spiral with uncertainty in the mundane world, I make the assertion and provide the proof, that all we seek and all we strive to accomplish, should be done not for recognition or reward, but just for the sake of love.

I intend to publish my additional manuscripts in the near future: Beyond the Mind to the Heart – Mirror Journey, Wisdom’s Secret, Fire, Ice, and Water, and Tantalize the Mist.
