American Spiritual Warrior: The Extraordinary Self-Realization Journey of an Ordinary Guy and Four Keys to Spiritual Enlightenment - Paperback

by Yosef Grodsky (Author)

In the quest for the answer to "Who am I?" Grodsky searches from the Bronx to Wall Street to Woodstock and on the road as he crisscrosses East and West. Along the way on this inward spiritual journey, he becomes a banker, a homeless yogi, marries, is ordained as a rabbi in Israel and raises a family. As he breaks through each level of painful resistance to achieve higher plateaus on the mystical journey to spiritual enlightenment, Grodsky renews our faith and offers four unique keys to spiritual enlightenment. Many who suffer from PTSD may find new insights into quieting the suffering of the mind. It's an American experience that seekers of the light from any tradition will recognize and respect. Grodsky currently serves as a chaplain in a Veterans Hospital in South Florida. Ram Dass says Rabbi Grodsky "embraces both Eastern traditions and Judaism, not as a tribal religion but as a valid path to G-d." Rabbi Zalman Schacter-Shalomi Z"L commented, "The many layers he describes of his journey led me to appreciate a new depth of self-understanding."
