Surfing the Timeless Wave Fritz Hudnut

This book has been written, and now revised again in 2020, to introduce the first year and a half of meditation sessions that the writer, Fritz Hudnut, DAOM, L. Ac., attended with mr. YH Kim--self-described simply as a, "helper." It is based on notes taken during or soon after a series of tri-weekly meetings with him that occurred in 2000 and 2001 at Emperor's College in Santa Monica, CA. The core intent of his sharing demonstrated the real "zen" aspiration of living fully in the eternal Now--for meditation in daily life. As such, for this writer it started a process of finding, not seeking, a way in to life and then on to approaching the infinite reality that deeply supports all life. Those first sessions were spoken mostly in Korean with translation made roughly into English. The challenge of expressing the ineffable in simple terms . . . is part of the difficulty in writing this book. Previously, the exercise was to try to preserve the words/voice as much as possible and yet still be apparent in meaning . . . however, that did not seem to be working for most readers. In this revised edition, for the sake of clarity in English, these are mostly not his exact words any longer, but it is the same message . . . . Only a few voices have spoken this message, like Krishnamurti, Nisargadatta, Ramana, and the like; but fewer still have actually heard it . . . listening is an art, seemingly long lost by us. It is my hope this revised edition works better to enable transparent understanding . . . so that others might learn to share the miracle that is freely available to anyone interested in contacting Life in its ultimate expressions.
