Seller's Description:
New York. 1990. Paragon House. 1st Printing. Very Good in Dustjacket. 1557782504. 296 pages. hardcover. Jacket illustration by Sara Schwartz. keywords: Religion Politics Psychology. FROM THE PUBLISHER-Russian spiritual teacher Georgei Gurdjieff force-fed vegetarians hefty meat dishes. Japanese Zen master Lin-chi thrashed his pupils. Indian guru Meher Baba remained silent for 43 years. All employed what Feuerstein, author of books on yoga and religion, calls ‘holy madness' or ‘crazy wisdom, ' using eccentric behavior or shock tactics to communicate an alternative vision. A former devotee of Da Free John (aka Da Love-Ananda, ne Franklin Jones), Feuerstein presents critical cameos of holy fools (Aleister Crowley, BhagwanRajneesh, etc. ) as well as guidelines for choosing a wise, enlightened guru and avoiding the exploitative. Yet his gallery of spiritual eccentrics is so diverse-ranging from Christian mystics to Hindu holy men who live on garbage heaps-that it's hard to credit the author's generalizations about the value of holy folly as an authentic path to transcendence. -PUBLISHERS WEEKLY. inventory #16550.
