About the author
Clark Eide is a retired entrepreneur, now writer and professional singer, sharing time in France, Uruguay and the United States. A retired entrpeneur and native of the United States, his study of things spiritual has taken him around the world - from the USA to London, from France to Australia, and Ireland to India. He is a member of the College of Psychic Studies in London, and currently supports the Self-Realization Fellowship of Paramahansa Yogananda in Los Angeles. He has spent time at Plum Village, home of the late famed author and Buddhist monk, Thich Nhat Hanh, and was present at the Dalai Lama’s visit at Plouray, Brittany, experiencing at arm’s length his extraordinary presence. He has been a long-time student of Transcendental Meditation, and has met with Indian pundits both in situ and in the USA on practical matters and astrology. He continues to be a student of alternative therapies such as Healing Touch, massage, hypnotherapy and EFT, and has studied with yoga masters in Australia, Ireland and Uruguay. He is a graduate of the University of Notre Dame.
These encounters and experiences have taught him that spirituality is about one thing only — direct connection to the Divine — as a part of or independent of an organized religion.
