'An American Sutra' is a collection of unique aphorisms, gleaned from an adventurous and examined life, and intended to be both entertaining and thought provoking. Some maxims are entirely original, while others are a fresh rewording of, or contrarian slant on, traditional wisdom. 'Commentaries on American Sutra' explicates each axiom by number, with a view to increasing the reader's understanding and engagement, and with particular attention to New World social, cultural, and personal realities.

'An American Sutra' states practical truths, evolutionary insights, and metaphysical strategies in clear, Western terms for our Quantum Age. The author has learned and applied these axioms over decades of study and personal experience of philosophies, religious thought, and self-improvement regimens around our world. Personal evolution is really 'the only game in town', and agree or disagree as you will with particular maxims, this book will move the reader to new cognitive spaces.
