The Heart of Who We Are | Free Book
Awareness practices and contemplative technologies that transform
our understanding of ourselves and the world—profoundly impacting how we live
When
Caverly Morgan reentered society after eight years as a Zen monk,
she was confronted with a question many of us are asking these days:
When faced with the enormity of the collective problems before us,
how can one individual’s spiritual practice make a tangible
difference in our world?
In
The Heart of Who We Are, Morgan explores how meditation,
mindfulness, and contemplative technologies designed for the
realization of personal freedom can—and must be—applied
collectively. Offering a wealth of teachings and reflections, solo
and group exercises, and personal stories that inspire us to put our
values into action, this timely guide invites us to connect with the
deepest truth of who we are, and then use that understanding to
transform our own lives and the world we share.

At the core of this
book is the call to liberation, to find freedom that is within and
without, both personally and collectively. “The longer we cling to
the notion that there’s a separate self who awakens, the more
arduous our path will be,” Morgan writes. “We realize freedom
together.”
