Jed McKenna - Enlightened Skydiving Jerk
    #10948163 -

Has anyone here read any of Jed McKenna's books?

'Spiritual Enlightenment - The Damnedest Thing' is an interesting book, sometimes very profound but very campy for the most part.
'Spiritually Incorrect' is better, imo. The Moby Dick revelations are worth the read, I'm waiting for the audiobook of the third one.

I've heard Jed McKenna is a pseudonym used by a well-known teacher. I've noticed many similarities to Ken Wilber, but who knows.

"I like happiness as much as the next guy, but it's not happiness that sends one in search of truth.  It's rabid, feverish, clawing madness to stop being a lie, regardless of price, come heaven or hell.  This isn't about higher consciousness or self-discovery or heaven on earth.  This is about blood-caked swords and Buddha's rotting head and self-immolation, and anyone who says otherwise is selling something they don't have."
