We first published Richard Doyle’s work as Non-Duality Press, he co-wrote a book with Gary Weber which explored, amongst many other things, the progressive and direct paths and the role of entheogens in awakening. Given his remarkable academic qualifications I have always found him an incredibly humble human being with a zest for sharing experiential understanding. I feel privileged to publish a second book by Richard, this time on the theme of Genesis and the Bible. Many ...of us from the west have a complex and sometimes uncomfortable relationship with Christianity but, if you are anything like me, you would dearly like to resolve some of that discomfort. ‘The Genesis of Now’, I’d like to suggest, might just be the book to do that. Here is an excerpt from the foreword by Gary Weber which gives a little more background to the creation of this book: As I work with Rich Doyle on nonduality and collaborate extensively with him, often involving copious amounts of sushi and green tea, I attended his perennially sold out university course The Bible from a Nondual Perspective, which looked at the King James Bible from this very different nondual perspective, as what it was directly pointing to. Rich is a masterful and highly engaging teacher with so many awards that, when wearing his medals, he looks like an Olympic champion. His unfolding of this understanding is so skillful, effective and interactive that students, many of them Christians, find themselves understanding the Bible for the first time, sometimes with their mouths agape (a pun on self-less love, agape, one of Rich’s favorite Biblical terms and likely what some feel as well). This book started from a student’s recording the classes on his laptop, and with my and other folks’ persistent urging, Rich getting them transcribed by our wonderful associate, Suzanne, and somewhat organized. However, as a tribute to Rich’s rhetorical training, philosophical insights, vast background of varied experiences and languages, and insatiable curiosity to discover the deepest truth in any text, it morphed into an experiential guide, rather than a mere restatement of familiar passages. It does teach you how to actually, personally, work directly with the Bible, sans interlocutor.

The third book release this month is a little different to the previous two. Several years ago, Han van den Boogaard - a long-time friend of New Sarum Press and former editor of Dutch non-dual journal, Inzicht - suffered a heart attack which left him in a coma for five days. Upon awakening, "he started looking at the world with new eyes. To his immense surprise, the ‘usual’ was replaced by the ‘wondrous and the incomprehensible’" Divided into three parts, Han explores this n...ew vision and shows that, "this Oneness is not bound to a specific vocabulary or use of concepts, but that its truth is universal and can be experienced by everyone!"
