That Which is Before You: An Invitation to Enlightenment, Paperback

Discover an unexpected and profound journey, filled with direct insight, fresh teachings, and guidance for spiritual practice. That Which is Before You is a testimonial, an invitation, and a guidebook written by an ordinary person, who at the age of forty-three, after thirty years of searching, stumbled into enlightenment. He has since endeavored to help others on the spiritual path, and to point toward the realization that great mystics have described throughout the ages.

As a spiritual teacher, Matthew offers direct insight into awakening. He addresses the deep mystery of our true nature through present experience, and when necessary, through a broad knowledge of traditions and practices. His teachings are universal, not tied to any specific religion or philosophy, and are uncompromising of a truth which lies beyond all words, all thoughts, all concepts.
