Биография и Путь Автора

Jeff Foster is a British writer and speaker whose work grew out of a difficult personal reorientation rather than a conventional literary apprenticeship. He studied astrophysics at Cambridge University, but the years around graduation were marked by depression and physical illness, followed by an intense spiritual search. In his mid-twenties, that search, in his own telling, gave way to a recognition of the “non-dual” nature of experience and to a renewed attention to ordinary life. That turning point supplied the basis for the body of writing and teaching for which he became known: reflective, psychologically aware, and centered on presence rather than self-improvement as conquest.

Your life may be an imperfect mess, but it is an imperfect mess that is perfectly divine – a work of sacred art, even if you forget that sometimes

quote
This moment doesn’t need your permission to be as it is. Your acceptance or rejection of this moment is already too late!
