Biography
Readers around the world discovered Jed McKenna when his first book, Spiritual Enlightenment: The Damnedest Thing, was published. A few years later his second book, Spiritually Incorrect Enlightenment, was released and further reinforced his singular reputation. In his third book, Spiritual Warfare, Jed stated that his writing and teaching career were complete and we have heard nothing more from him since.
Inspiration
I am adding this listing on behalf of Jed McKenna and Wisefool Press. I am not an employee of either but a self-appointed advocate of Jed's writings. The following is taken from the publisher's website:
Jed's books have achieved the status of underground classics. They have sold over 150,000 copies in more than fifty countries and been translated by publishers in Europe, South America and Asia. And, as a look at some of the feedback on this site will show, they have found a very special place in readers' hearts.
Yes, Jed's books are a joy to read. They're full of charm and humor, memorable characters and delightful dialogues. But they're also full of something seldom found in "spiritual" books; a stark and unyielding challenge to the reader. In the end, these books are about one thing — moving beyond the ego — and that's a territory many wish to leave unexplored.
Jed's books are not all sweetness and light, and they're not for everyone.
The tagline of the Enlightenment Trilogy is "The Search Is Over". We have good reason for saying that. Some readers have called these the last spiritual books anyone will ever need, and there's good reason for saying that too. Jed McKenna's books are required reading for anyone who is not afraid to go where honest inquiry leads, and no one who is serious about their spirituality can afford not to read them.
The bottom line is that spirituality has a bottom line, and Jed shows us right where it is.
