“Life always gives you what you need, and right now it has given
you this book to use as a guide or companion through challenging
times. It contains a great deal of precious wisdom, expressed in
the straightforward, clear, and down-to-earth language that Steve
Taylor is so good at.”
― from the foreword by Eckhart Tolle, author of The Power of Now
and A New Earth
“A wonderful synthesis of modern research and timeless wisdom that
makes the mysterious process of spiritual awakening more
comprehensible than ever before.”
— Peter Russell, author of From Science to God
“This book is both insightful and inspiring. Building on the
foundations of his previous books, Steve Taylor’s expertise and
profound understanding of awakened states shine through and
culminate in his proposition of an evolutionary leap that awaits
humankind. For anyone who is interested in or has experienced an
awakening, this book is not to be missed, as Taylor eloquently
conveys an in-depth understanding of this fascinating phenomenon.
It’s an excellent book that everyone should read.”
— Dr. Penny Sartori, author of The Wisdom of Near-Death
Experiences
“It’s high time we got clearer on what enlightenment is and isn’t.
The Leap is readable, important, and long overdue. It offers a
thorough portrait of this long-mysterious state with care and
love.”
— Dr. Robert K. C. Forman, author of Enlightenment Ain’t What It’s
Cracked Up to Be and Mysticism, Mind, Consciousness
“In The Leap, Steve Taylor takes a radically new approach to
spiritual awakening, suggesting that the experience is more common
than one might suspect, is not bound to any religious or spiritual
tradition, and may be playing an essential role in human evolution.
The Leap is filled with provocative statements, some of which you
may agree with and some you may disagree with — but you can be sure
that this is a book you will never forget. It establishes Steve
Taylor as a major spiritual author and teacher, whose lucid and
articulate writing will evoke wonder and wisdom among readers.”
— Stanley Krippner, PhD, Alan Watts Professor of Psychology,
Saybrook University
“A wonderfully detailed demystification of awakening within and
without traditions that is a pleasure to read and offers hope for
our dangerous times.”
— Claudio Naranjo, author of Healing Civilization and designer of
the SAT Programs for personal and professional development
