When tragedy befalls a mother and her teen daughter, they are forced to choose between a life of hardening themselves against the outside world or opening their hearts and living a life without fears and limitations. With the help of a mysterious man behind the counter of a local diner and a couple of unlikely spiritual leaders, they will learn to face the darkness and embrace the light that is within all of us. Transubstantiation will make you consider your place in the universe in the most fun and unusual ways and leave you feeling like you’ve made new friends that you can’t wait to revisit.
I’m not your standard monk/ spiritual guy and I’m for sure NOT your guru. If spiritual teachers were lovers, I’m the guy who always needs two hands and five minutes to undo the bra.
I’ll get you there but the “way” might be a bit unconventional. But, if you are here, that’s what you’re looking for right?
What I am is someone also struggling along my path figuring it out each day and using the principles I’ve picked up as “the worst buddhist” to find peace and freedom within. And, I’m damn good at sharing my joy, child-likeness, and geeky outlook to help others brighten their lives too.
I’m a Marine Veteran, a chronic martial arts student, an athlete, a comic book nerd, a father, an author, a homeless advocate, a community volunteer, a Zen monk, a yo-yo master (maybe a bit obsessed), and a lot in between.
Most likely what you are experiencing I’ve been there too.
