The Beatin' Path: a lyrical guide to lucid evolution

By John B Lane

Book Overview

'I must preface, highlight, skywrite, bold, all caps the word "creative" when using it to describe The Beatin' Path. The book explodes with... with... stories of existence, questions around morality, questions around mortality...deep thoughts, silly musings that lead to deep thoughts - and that's just the first chapter. It's like someone took Tom Robbins and threw him in a blender with Huxley, Orwell, Kant and Darwin, and then added a dash of the Buddha with a drop of the essence of a holy-rolling tent-revival preacher on acid.

'The tongue-twisting wordplay that is present in this book demonstrates Lane's whimsical storytelling abilities. Kicking off with a piece titled "Mantra for a Panther in a Room Full of Metronomes," it's clear that the reader is in for a ride. The mundane, profane, abstract, religious, political, financial, artistic - it's all knit together in a flowing series of written stories that provoke inquiry and present a new way of viewing them via the author's kaleidoscopic-colored glasses. Yeah. It's a trip '
