Profusely illustrated with color photographs. NOTE: Contains brief artistic nudity. "Open the cover of Secrets of High States and you will begin a reality-filled, mystery-bound journey of discovery. In powerful words and evocative images, author Jim Dines invites all who enter to learn how to abandon, for example, such Low States as Anger, Doormatism, Injustice, Collecting. Lying, Social Vampirism, Stinginess, and Wishing in order to embrace fully a life grounded in High States of being. Chapter by chapter, this master weaver pulls together the threads of knowledge that really can lead you to the ever-elusive transcendence. On first reading, you will encounter a miraculous distillation of truths. Jim challenges us to probe our deepest, most dearly-held convictions and to view them in the light of the mind-blowing High- and Low-State epistemology he has developed over a lifetime. Like a Taoist teacher, he offers layer upon layer of ideas and examples as he illuminates the "seeming" in order to help us refine our perceptions of what truly is. Beauty and Truth sum up the vast ambition of Jim Dines' Secrets of High States. This is a writer/philosopher/teacher who is not content with the quotidian or with the mere surfaces of things. Even more, he is not content to leave his readers searching for meaning in all the wrong places. His radiant, startling images are a perfect counterpoint to the often-paradoxical revelations of his text. Together, they lead one through door after door to understanding and eventually wisdom. It is rare to find a single work of art and philosophy that can resonate as completely and timelessly as does this singular book. No matter how many readings and viewings, Secrets of High States promises continuing fresh insights into living with awareness and purpose. A book of this stature is destined to be a "classic." More than that, it is destined to be a Rosetta stone for everyone seeking a joyful life." - from the inner front jacket flap. Schober, Karen (cover and interior design) (illustrator).…
