Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Is contemporary art undermining the sacred roots of human culture? Is art meant for a noble purpose, greater self-knowledge, and entry to a deeper dimension of life? In sharp, streetwise language, this artist, a skateboarding punk meditator, presents practical ways serious artists can use their lives to develop greater clarity, dignity, generosity, and insight. He discusses: how generosity transforms the artist's natural isolation; how creative people subconsciously sabotage their success; how unrecognised self-indulgence obstructs creativity; how artists can use meditation to deepen insight and creativity; shamanistic and sacred visionary traditions as sources of creative power; and the consequences of manipulating creativity.
