I was once like many seekers. On a spiritual quest to cast out feelings of emptiness and inadequacy . The big questions bothered Who am I? How can I find the inner peace I so desperately crave? What is the purpose of my life? After nearly a half decade search for answers, hundreds of hours spent in meditation, and even more time spent reading philosophy, spiritual and Buddhist books, a meeting with an enlightened teacher transformed the seeker became an ordinary dude. In this guide you’ll find no gurus . No monks . No mystics . But instead a dude just like you ...perhaps someone you’d meet in a bar and chat about life’s big questions till the early hours of the morning. While you’ll learn that enlightenment is much more ordinary than you think, you’ll discover a not-so-ordinary understanding of life and the world we live in. If you want to put the spiritual quest behind you, escape the rat race rush of the modern world and never-ending search for completeness, and find contentment in everyday life , then I invite you to pull up a bar stool, crack a beer, and stay up with me till the wee hours.

Thanks for visiting my Author page. My name's John and I'm originally from the suburbs of Chicago, Illinois. As a writer, I've written for US TV shows that have aired on networks such as A&E, BIO, Spike, National Geographic and more. I've also published five books (four that have been bestsellers).
My books are about mindfulness, travel and dude stuff—all of which I consider myself an expert in.
I’ve been meditating for 15+ years and have lived on 3 continents. And in the process, I’ve spent ample time on my couch eating pizza, watching NBA hoops and sampling the delicious porters and lagers of the world.
A very different, enjoyable take on an important topic, this book approaches a complicated, sometimes eye-rolling topic in a way that you and I can ‘get’ it. Completely different, very intriguing, and essentially practical, this is something to get you thinking in a constructive but fun way. Go for it: I found it quick to read, but it made me think about a lot of things. There are also pictures.
