- Synopsis
- As in all his books, Heckler draws from personal experience: training his horse, cultivating presence in aikido dojos, consulting with business executives, raising children. A masterful and encompassing book,Holding the Centerdevelops from the fulcrum of the self in the natural world. Many of Heckler's lessons arise from his life as a householder and father. Community is a larger family--we make alliances to "take care of what matters to us. " But, as Heckler teaches, that takes listening to others with an open heart, and learning what the needs of others are. The world can be a sanctuary, if we find a balance between instinct and choice. Richard Strozzi Heckler sounds an important call about the interplay between power and generosity in these subtle and luminous essays. From the Trade Paperback edition.
