This book is about returning to your heart, the only teacher you will ever need.   Religion, society and convention have endeavored to mold us into nice people, yet, we are not nice.  The world is awash in stories of romantic adventures and love, yet we are not loving.  Scores of thousands have marched for peace, yet we are not peaceful.   We have been slapped, spanked, and shouted at; new rules and old laws barked into our ears, yet we remain the same.  Hungry, tired and sore, we are searching for a home we have never left.   This book is about returning to your heart, the only teacher you will ever need.  This book is about growing naturally in a way you were designed to evolve.  This book is about resting under a gnarled tree, in its ancient shade and finding yourself.   The precepts in this book are Peter’s prescription for remedying the devastating effects of the Three Poisons: greed, anger, and delusion.  They are intended as a restorative, like resting in the shade of an old tree.  These precepts are timeless.  They do not belong to any person, sect, or religion but are born as seeds within human hearts in every age.  These seeds grow in the soil of inner silence, and as Peter’s life demonstrates, they flower quite naturally when this condition is watered and cultivated.   --Hal Wilson
