Being Here, Modern Day Tales of Enlightenment
Stories that inspire, amuse, entertain and enlighten the soul.

ISBN: 9781888043181, $12.95, 176 pages

Being Here, Modern Day Tales of Enlightenment is a collection of ordinary yet profound moments from a lifetime of inquiry into Self-Discovery by authors Ariel & Shya Kane. This book uses stories to illustrate a new possibility for approaching life; one that produces well-being and satisfaction, where upsetting events – even death and loss – don't have to affect your ability to have a brilliant life. These stories reveal the possibility that true and lasting enlightenment can happen in ordinary, every day moments.

Touching and profound, the stories in Being Here form a practical guide to living a fulfilling life. They address such topics as forgiveness & compassion, following your heart, dissolving upsets and of course, the unlimited possibilities unleashed by Being Here.

Following is an excerpt from the beginning of the book:

"One day, after taking every self-help workshop available, being an EST trainer candidate and seminar leader, living for years in a meditation center, Shya Kane stopped trying to improve himself.

In that moment, 20 years ago, he became enlightened.

He immediately stopped trying to fix or change his wife Ariel. Soon – she became enlightened. Their lives shifted into an effortless, joyous adventure.

As they interact with their world, magical events take place..."
