In his new book, the author of "God Has No Secrets" takes a fresh, uncompromisingly iconoclastic look at the very foundations of our existence. What he finds is by turns educational, enlightening, edifying, amusing, aggrandizing, and perhaps even annoying (in that uncomfortable way that the truth can sting like a mosquito). But is never boring. "In 1929, J. Krishnamurti, resigning from his ordained role as the 'world teacher,' proclaimed that 'truth is a painless land,' No path, no system, no belief, no idea or ideal can lead one to the absolute truth that was the first and the last step in Krishnamurti's teaching. This whimsical book is court jester's divinely foolish and inspired attempt to share this most profound and illusive truth with anyone who will listen." - Michael Mendizza
