"I began my spiritual journey at a very young age having been born in Asia and raised in the West. I always lived a dual existence between the East and the West and the spiritual and material worlds. While being educated in the West, I continued to learn Eastern wisdom, meditation, martial arts, qigong, and healing from various renowned Asian masters. Also, when I entered the business and financial world, I continued my spiritual practice and integrated it into my work and daily life. What I discovered was the duality was just an illusion that could be overcome by an integrated spiritual approach to life.
On the one hand, through my business career, I met a lot of successful people who had accumulated some wealth and lived a fairly comfortable material lifestyle. Yet, they didn't seem totally happy or content. They seemed to be searching for some deeper meaning and fulfillment that they couldn't find just pursuing their material goals. On the other hand, through my spiritual studies, I met a lot of people who were successful at finding spiritual meaning in life but struggled daily to make ends meet. I saw that both extremes of material or spiritual success still left something missing in their lives. Their extremes were based on a misconception that material success and spiritual meaning were diametrically opposed. Consequently, one who was materially abundant didn't feel there was any need for spiritual meaning, while one who was spiritually involved didn't see the value of pursuing a successful material lifestyle. The truth of the matter is that in modern day living, we need both material and spiritual fulfillment in order to achieve happiness.
My book, The Tao of Modern Living: A Guide to True Happiness, Fulfillment, and Self-Mastery, came out of the need to address this duality in modern society and to teach people how they can have both an abundant material life as well as a spiritually meaningful one. When I began writing this book five years ago, I wanted to demystify the Taoist teachings and apply their ageless wisdom in a practical manner to solve modern day problems. I felt that such a book could help everyday people find a balance in their lives, so that they can achieve true happiness and fulfillment."
