<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>An enchanting, visually arresting, "extraordinary children's book for adults...that peers into the depths of the human experience and the meaning of our existence." (Brainpickings.org).<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><i>The Well of Being</i>, from Jean-Pierre Weill, is an illustrated inquiry into the art of happiness and what it means to be radically alive in our daily moments. Images and a graceful philosophic text invite us to awaken from our constructed stories that we may return to this world and live in the present. The book opens with a perennial account of life's ultimate purpose and concludes with a unique retelling of the puzzle we call growing up. Through art, philosophy, and poetry we are offered a refreshing and empowering way to rethink ourselves. The book is an experience to be felt.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"What emerges from Weill's ethereal watercolors and enchanting words is a secular scripture, at once grounding and elevating--a gentle prod to awaken from the trance of our daily circumstances and live with openhearted immediacy." -Brainpickings.org <p/>"Everyone should read this book, it's a mind changer." -Daniel Goleman, bestselling author of <i>Emotional Intelligence</i> <p/>"A beautifully rendered reminder of what is important."--Ram Daas, author of <i>Be Here Now</i> <p/>"<i>The Well of Being</i> is a rapturous amazement I think is a psalm."--Cynthia Ozick</p><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>JEAN-PIERRE WEILL has worked as a visual artist for twenty years.
