Another Interview I Am Not Likely To Schedule: From The Flannery O'Connor Snake Oil Files


Alternately, file under "Don't Listen To Anyone When They Tell You How To Find God, And Buying My Book Is A Great Way Not To Be Told By Me:"
Disillusioned with organized religion, some people escape into New Age movements and others retreat from spirituality altogether. Sankara Saranam proposes a more satisfying and transformative option: embarking on a quest to discover God on your own.

Sankara Saranam can share with your audience:

How to form one’s spiritual identity

What God is and what God is not

What’s behind the needless suffering today and what one person do (sic)to alleviate it

How a world without organized religion might play out

Whether spirituality can be universalized

A great interview with an intriguing and impressive resume:

Former Monk and Radio Show Host

Current World Lecturer and Religion Scholar

Author of God Without Religion

Best Spirituality Book Award Winner (USABooknews.com)

Religion Book of the Year Award Winner (Foreward Magazine)

Favorite Book of the Year as selected by Melissa Etheridge in Organic Style
I wasn't tracking until the Melissa Etheridge part. Although, I'm a little confused as to what the criteria for these awards are... does a guru like this lose credibility points with his target audience if he wins book awards in both Religion and Spirituality?
