Synopsis:
The spiritual travels of the author, a former CIA agent who begins a spiritual trail through South East Asia.
As a CIA agent in Asia in the late 1950's John Coleman was intrigued by many aspects of the cultures he visited. When his cover was blown and he was forced to resign, he embarked on a vigorous pursuit of spiritual truth. In his travels through India, Burma, Japan and Thailand he encountered luminous teachers such as Sayagyi U Ba Khin, D.T.Suzuki, Maharishi Yogi, and Krishnamurti. His search for peace of mind and liberating insights came to fruition in Rangoon, Burma, under the tutelage of the great Vipassana meditation master U Ba Khin.
"For many years now a respected vipassana teacher, John Coleman's story is a classic - and a good read!" Jack Kornfield.
"A fascinating glimpse of the path of a spiritual seeker who had both the yearning and the discipline to practice with some of the greatest spiritual mentors of our time. This classic spiritual odyssey offers a wealth of insight, inspiration, and practical advice to all readers with a thirst for adventures of the spirit." Joel and Michelle Levey.
"Re-reading the Quiet Mind after almost 30 years, I am touched again with how well John Coleman presents the urgency and dedication to spiritual practice - a universal response to the realization that liberation and peace of mind are a possibility." Sylvia Boorstein. |
