Spiritual Poetry    Now Before   by Ken Pollinger With Gratitude to Consciousness Ken's 96 page new book is available at: Nirvana Bookstore 1 South Broadway, Nyack, NY 10960 845-358-6448 Awakenings 215 Katonah Ave, Katonah, NY 10536 914-232-6474 Sunburst Oasis 237 East Main Street, Mt. Kisco, NY 10549 914-242-5052 SPECIAL THANKS also to the following authors whose books inspired me to write the enclosed lines: - Spiritual Enlightenment, by Jed McKenna, - From Onions to Pearls and From Seekers to Finders, both by Satyam Nadeen, - The Power of NOW; and, Stillness Speaks, both by Eckhart Tolle, - and finally The Heart of Awareness (a translation of the Ashtavakra Gita), by Thomas Byron. - These books are a good preparation for Peace and Harmony in Daily Living, by Ramesh S. Balsekar. Books, such as The Heart of Awareness,  write about more general insights into the spiritual life. My Confessions, on the other hand, attempt to apply the more generic to the concrete specific happenings/thoughts in my life. A newly expanded and revised 76 page printed edition of the Confessions of an Ex-Jesuit is available at Nirvana Bookstore for $4. ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
