Kindle Invites You to Heaven

Here's the press release for my book. I thought you might enjoy it:

Seattle, WA, USA.  “An invitation to step across a threshold into an unknown place that turned out to be heaven,” Dr. Alexandra Gayek, an early reviewer said.  William Wittmann’s newest Kindle book, Drawing the Sacred will be available for free download until 11:59 PM PST Oct. 9, 2013.

 

“What does that mean?” I asked Wittmann.

 

“This book shows people how to connect to the Sacred by using tricks that artist’s use.  And if you practice these ideas for a bit, you move into the Kingdom of Heaven that Jesus and the Buddha talked about.

 

“It’s pretty cool,” Wittmann said.  “The book has lots of stories, one for each painting or drawing in the book.  They’re there to be illustrations of connection.  Not so much to be illustrations of great art.  In fact I intended them to be simple enough that people could feel safe about trying to draw or paint for themselves.”

 

In my interview with William, he wanted to remind us that people can download  Kindles on any computer, phone, or iPad.  “Amazon wisely provides free software right from the book’s page,” he said.

 

And as Dr. Gayek said, “Drawing the Sacred is the most delicious one yet.”  (This is Wittmann’s 15^th book.)

Pilgrimage to Stillness

While Sasha and I were hiking at Sunrise on Mt. Rainier, she talked about the deep stillness we could find there.  This conversation reminded me of the importance of stillness.  Eckhart Tolle thinks of it as a primary doorway into Presence.   So do I.

Silence can lead to stillness, but they’re different.  You can always find stillness underneath the sounds.  You have to listen deeply.  Or perhaps feel into it.

So, on this most recent pilgrimage to Eastern Washington, I went looking for stillness.  The video shows you what I found.  The Columbia river runs deep and powerfully.  It flows deep stillness.  You can feel when you watch the video.  The canyon and the wheat fields flow into the Columbia.  They too are still.

Tip: Watch the video twice.  Once with the volume on and once in silence.

Did you notice a Bald Eagle perched on the bridge over the Columbia.  At the other end of the bridge perched an Osprey.  In the middle, one of them had a nest – my guess – the eagle.

The bear half way through is for Sasha, ‘cause she likes bears.  The haze comes from the nearby wildfires.  Climate impacts continue.  

Walk in beauty,
