I am incredibly excited to announce that on June 27th, 11 am-12:30 EST. I’ll be sitting down for a live online interview with author and teacher Lisa M. Miller about the mechanics of past-life recall, the mystical dynamics of subtle energy, the enduring nature of the soul, and the surprising process of writing a spiritual […]
The things I have to say, and the audience I wish to speak to, cover a wide range, from the psychotherapeutic to the mystical. It’s not easy for me to say things that appeal to such a wide range. Sometimes it’s better to speak to one subset of this range and let the others off […]
One of my teachers says that each life is like a thread weaving its contribution to the tapestry of creation.

Part II of my book Past the Past refers to “The Curious Painting” of the monk Robere, painted by Judy Marz. I thought this would be a good place to make her wondrous watercolor accessible to readers who wanted to see the image itself.
Jim reads the Prologue to Past the Past, Book II, Upon A Time In France. Past the Past continues Etienne’s story, and Jim’s continuing discoveries in his present-life spiritual journey.
Book II of my past-life memoir, titled Past the Past, is completed and in the process of production! I set the date of December 1st, but it will likely be ready by mid-November… fingers crossed.
