If you are looking for secrets, do not read this book, for I do not know a single secret. On the other hand, if you would like to enter deeper into Stillness, perhaps this book is for you. As I read the letters in this book, I felt moved by the power in them. I felt strength and hope surge in me. I felt truly stunned that I had written them. But mostly I felt humbled. In reading these letters, I see that I am a wise man. Or to be more exact, I sometimes stumble over wisdom and fall so hard that even I recognize it! But I am also just John, confused, frightened, and sometimes bumbling. As a young man, I was scarred by life; and that young man is in these letters. I was full of pain. I hurt everyone I loved. Lord knows I wanted to be a good man, but there was so much hurt and anger stored in me that no matter how much I tried to do the right thing, I would sabotage myself. I loved deeply, but my love was always mingled with a desperate need to be accepted. And invariably I drove away those I loved. But now, as I enter more and more into what I call Stillness, I feel somehow untouched by the hardships of my life. I feel young. I feel silly. I seek peace, but I am unafraid to speak my truth. I can love deeply with no expectation of anything in return. I am unpredictable. I am a little wild. I am intense, very intense. I love to hug and dance and sing. I am learning to treat myself with compassion, and as I do, I am healed. And as I am healed, my sense of Stillness deepens.

Through the centuries countless people from around the world have been coming to India, thirsty in their search for truth. Considered to be the birthplace of spirituality, India has produced more great mystics and spiritual teachers than any other country. What more fitting place for Eckhart to speak of the eternal Now? It is here on the banks of the holy Ganga, amidst the snow-capped Himalayas and the tremendous beauty of scarlet sunsets that a group of determined souls from around the globe met to sit together in silence. With Eckhart s guidance, the rigors of living in India served as teachers pointing to the release of attachment to form and to seeing deeper into the inner. Join them in this transformational experience and allow yourself to be guided through words and stillness into the state of presence. This is the surrendered state of consciousness in which the very limitations of form become an opening into the divine. During this seven day retreat Eckhart speaks with humble authenticity, wisdom and humor on a wide range of subjects.
