About the Book
Questions: What does it mean for an atheist to experience God in the twenty-first century? How does a modern, rational person make sense of a direct experience of Spirit that connects him in an instant to the ancient sages? What is the true nature of this human birthright to experience the divine? And why don’t we as a society know the answers to these questions?
Say you’re lying on the couch and reading a book, minding your own business, when without any sign or warning, your life ignites into a mind-blowing blaze of glory. So mind-blowing that you wonder how come no one told you that such an amazing experience was even possible. The only people you’ve ever heard of who could possibly understand this experience of overwhelming love, awe, clarity, and insight into the True Nature of existence, are long-gone guys like Jesus and Buddha.
Welcome to the strange and miraculous world of what Joseph Campbell called the hero’s journey. Or what Carl Jung called the struggle for individuation.
"This Machine Solves Koan" is the odyssey of Frostbit Sage, from when he set sail from Ithaca in that First Light he experienced in his late twenties until he finally got back home in his early sixties. Sage was never a great hero like Odysseus, never a Superman or a prophet. He was just like so many of us today, a person struggling through life. An underdog trying to answer questions that society has forgotten how to ask.
