  • If you were told that you are already enlightened, would you believe it?
  • If you were told that you are already enlightened, would you believe it?
  • If you were told that enlightenment is as easy as doing your weekly shopping, what would you say?
  • If you were told that the person serving your cappuccino is your spiritual teacher, would you just laugh?

Most of us have been taught that we must enter a spiritual path in order to become enlightened. The idea is that if we work at it hard enough, attend dozens of seminars on spiritual topics, read enough books, etc., then someday, in this lifetime or the next, we will be struck by a cosmic lightning bolt, and in a sudden flash of insight will achieve full enlightenment. Consider the possibility that we have been sold a myth, the myth of enlightenment... In fact, we can find enlightenment anywhere, at any time, even in that most commercial and stressful place, the Shopping Mall.

What if enlightenment is something you can pick up with your groceries, or doing your Christmas shopping? What if the person serving you behind the jewelry counter is as much your teacher as the leader of your latest workshop? What if it's all as simple as keeping your eyes and ears open while you live your daily life, doing all those mundane chores you dislike so much? This could change your attitude in every moment, making all that you do much more fun and interesting. In Ten Spiritual Lessons I Learned at the Mall, James Twyman takes a humorous and insightful journey through a place where few would ever go to attain enlightenment. He discovers that we can find ourselves anywhere, even in a place where we would rather not be... especially in such a place. You will be with him as he spends five days at a mall in Toronto, acting as if he was on a retreat in a monastery or an ashram, asking the big questions and finding some amazingly simple answers. This book will change the way you experience your ordinary environment.

James F Twyman
James Twyman is an internationally renowned author, singer and Peace Troubadour who has a reputation for drawing millions of people together in prayer to influence events of world crisis. In 1995 he had an experience in the mountains of Croatia that led to his best-selling book Emissary of Light, called 'the second coming of the Celestine Prophesy' by Variety Magazine. His six books have been translated into over a dozen languages, and his cds are distributed around the world. James has been invited by world leaders to countries like Iraq, Northern Ireland, Israel, South Africa and Serbia to offer his insights on peace and perform the Peace Concert, often while conflicts have raged in those countries. He has performed twice at the United Nations in New York, as well as the US Capitol and the US Pentagon. His peace projects, including the Cloth of Many Colors, have inspired millions of people around the world.

In 2001 James met a young boy named Marco who led him on a journey to Bulgaria. While there he met four psychic children who were being trained at a secluded monastery. Their message, which is the subject of Twyman's book, Emissary of Love, The Psychic Children Speak to the World was expressed in a question the children said they wanted to ask the adults of the world: How would you act and what would you do if you knew that you are an Emissary of Love right now Since then James has distributed many messages from these amazing children, and is in the process of organizing several conferences that will allow the consciously aware children the chance to express their wisdom.

James has also developed Internet courses to give those around the world the opportunity to learn tools for spiritual peacemaking both within themselves and in their communities. Over 80,000 people have participated in the courses.

James is also the Executive Producer and Writer of the film Indigo which premiered at the Santa Fe Film Festival December 5, 2003.
