Once again, Joe Williams, ragman, has me wanting everyone I know to read this, his latest book. He whirls and twirls dervishly with the themes of existence/nonexistence. Duality and non-duality. Deep suffering and profound grace in connection with all that is. He pairs despair with gratitude, and artfully weaves a tapestry of human frailty and possibility. I am deeply grateful for his wisdom and for his art and service. He is one of the few Grandfathers in our medicine family. He serves the Grandmothers faithfully and feeds us all with his reverently irreverent and playful wisdom.
