Peak Experiences

by Bruce Johnson, Janet Hughes (Editor)

Peak experiences are a type of religious, transformative event that are rare and precious. I've been lucky enough to have a few of them. Most have been in the high mountains. My book begins, "He sat alone on the mountain peak, high in the morning sun, his gaze extending for a hundred miles in all directions." Well-known writers/gurus such as Eckhart Tolle and Abraham Maslow have described the experiences by different names and in different ways. My short book simply tells some personal stories about the situations which for me seem to culture that elusive feeling of peace and unity with the World.
