Summary

This is a collection of mystical poems and humorous, irreverent, and insightful tales about the challenges and rewards of a spiritual life that is not intended as an escape from the world but as a way of embracing more fully the human experience. Ultimately, they are about the joy of coming home to oneself.
 
The initial idea of "A Gift of Love," published by Lifestyle Entrepreneurs Press in 2019, came to me in the long hours of inevitable wakefulness after drinking a healthy dose of San Pedro medicine in November of 2018. By dawn I had all the contents a handful already written and many others just in my head. This new volume, "A Greater Gift of Love," includes those original writings from "A Gift of Love" plus many more texts written in June and July of 2019 after a shamanic dieta with the Toé plant, Brugmansia Suaveolens, in the Amazon jungle and again in the first weeks of the Coronavirus pandemic in March and April of 2020.
 
This is truly a gift of love from me as well as everybody involved in this project. It is also a gift of love from all the energies whose wisdom has inspired many of these writings.
 
May these writings inspire you along the Journey of Life, and if they manage to make you remember some vital things you might have forgotten along the way and make you chuckle on a handful of occasions, then it was well worth everybody's while.

    John Keats is perhaps the most talented poet of the English Romantic Period. Although his life was cut short by disease at the age of 25, he produced some of the most famous poems in world literature. Less erudite and philosophical than Shelley and not so technically versatile as Byron, he displayed a sure poetic instinct and an amazing ability to appeal powerfully to the senses and to the emotions by the brilliance of his diction. Thus his poetry is noted more for exquisite feeling than for thought, but in his particular sphere he was unmatched. His influence upon later poets has been immense. (Introduction by Leonard Wilson)

    A despot has come to power. The population is listless, submissive and scared.
    But beneath every violation of civil autonomy, there are real human beings; behind every act of resistance, there is an individual willing to risk everything. And these people aren't heroic or remarkable – they're just like us.
    Through the lives of bureaucrats, soldiers, ornithologists and tour guides, No Particular Order charts the fate of a single society, asking at every step of the way: is it empathy, or power, that endures?
    Joel Tan's startling and apocalyptic play No Particular Order was shortlisted for the Theatre503 International Playwriting Award, and opened at Theatre503, London, in May 2022, directed by Josh Roche.
