Free Book Promotion

Awakening's Treasure, recently published as a Kindle eBook (also see 'more info' in sidebar), will be available free during a two day period this week, on February 1st and 2nd (the Buy/Kindle Purchase Price will be $0.00...no need to be an Amazon Prime member).

You are invited to take a look and enjoy the book. Of course, any reviews are also welcome (Amazon account required), as these may be useful to future readers.

Ego-mind is a fortress that seems well constructed,
But it's just pasted together, the inside in shambles.

It keeps planning last-ditch measures,
Hoping to avoid its unavoidable dismantling.

These are done done gingerly, not to rock the boat,
As we're lulled in the slumbers of our daily lives.

Meanwhile, an inevitable event keeps creeping closer,
As awakening's presence prepares to puncture this dream.

What could be of greater help,
But paying less heed to ego-mind in oneself and others?

What service surpasses this simple act,
For what could disarm ego-mind more?

Though Self's presence may rarely be sensed,
Why not imagine it's that same presence in all?

For in the end what else remains,
Before which all else is a passing show?

(Note to subscribers: apologies for the tech glitch last Sunday; duplicate book announcements were posted, one without a linked cover image.)

(Note: current plan is to announce free promotion for Awakening's Treasure next week; see Jan.15 post.

Awakening's Treasure

I have recently published Awakening's Treasure as an eBook.

It's probably best described in the Introduction and sample of contents which can be viewed in the Look Inside feature (cover image temporarily missing there while KDP corrects, but included when downloading eBook).

See Awakening's Treasure (more info) for further details about the book's development in relation to this blog. For excerpts, not included elsewhere, and From the Author, please go here.

Awakening's Treasure will be available at no charge for a two day promotion in just over two weeks, dates to be announced here on Sunday, January 29.
