Today's book tells us that if we want to make good decisions, we need to start by doing this: learning to be at the front of the train of our awareness... What?!...
This is the advice that comes to us from this great 70's classic: learn to be at the front of the train of your awareness. Stop thinking and return to the present moment. Return to the real Universe. In this episode, we discuss how to do this.
Join us as we try to decipher what Robert M. Pirsig is telling us in his great classic 'Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance'

I have created 'My Bookshelf' intending to share the wisdom from books that have deeply influenced me. I believe that books like these contain the urgently needed transformational tools we are all looking for.
We analyse the book from a psycho-spiritual perspective. We approach it from the angle of: What can we learn from this? What lessons can we take with us, which when put into practice, will lead us to greater happiness, fulfillment and inner peace?
We focus on Mindfulness and your Personal and Spiritual Growth.
