While I’m now reading at a much slower pace, there’s a select tapestry of books that, through their combining, deeply shaped my life. These books didn't just inform me — they transformed me. They created new neural pathways, morphed worldviews, shifted inner ecologies, and opened doorways to realities I didn’t know were possible. I felt like sharing the ones that have meant most to me.

I just came out of a 10-day silent Vipassana meditation at Dhamma Sobhana in Sweden. It was one of the hardest things I’ve ever done. Most of the time it felt like I was drowning.
