Radiant Joy Brilliant Love: Secrets for Creating an Extraordinary Life and Profound Intimacy With Your Partner

by Clinton Callahan

This hard-hitting and innovative book about man-woman relationship challenges the deceptions about love and intimacy rampant in today's patriarchal culture and reveals a step-by-step process for discovering and living out alternative possibilities. According to the author, even the "best" of our relationships are still generally basic what he calls "Ordinary Human Relationship." Two more domains remain to be Extraordinary Human Relationship and Archetypal Love. Radiant Joy Brilliant Love shows how to enter these new domains and how to stay there long enough to cultivate genuine intimacy, nurturance, excitement, and satisfaction together. The material for the book is startlingly original and fresh, directly distilled from over 30 years of trial, error, and evaluation within seminars and trainings conducted by the author in the United States and Europe. The essential teaching tools are "Thought-Maps" that illustrate and guide the dynamics of evolving relationship, coupled with a series of experiments/"explorations" to be engaged alone or with one's partner. The author claims that "an endless abundance of love can be directly experienced by any human being who prepares himself or herself." That preparation is what this book offers.

One of the most challenging and useful books I have read in my entire life. This is not light reading; not for the weak minded. If you read this book, and conduct experiments, you will be changed in terrifying and wonderful ways.

Clinton Callahan is a MAN. He's smart, funny, creative, open in his mind and heart and all the same time he's utterly masculine. I had a fortunate chance to meet him in person in April 2009 at Tamera (Portugal). This book is about love - in its purest and most sensual way at the same time. And as love encompasses all life - as we know - this book is a gentle guide for living with passion and in harmony for the two kind of human species we actually are (men and women). Magic is out there, you just need to seize it! And not kill nor scare off the butterfly once it has landed on your palm. Of course it might not work out as mr Callahan says but on the other hand... it might work out! With the knowledge from this book the chances might be slightly bigger. ;)
