He then explores Eastern wisdom and moves to Montreal where he practices Buddhist meditation but his experience of wakefulness in day-to-day life unleashes a Pandoras Box of unresolved emotions resulting from early childhood trauma of which he was blissfully unaware. More travels and encounters with women propel him along his healing journey which parallels his ongoing quest for permanent awakening.Its Jack Kerouac meets Eckhart Tolle.
