Awake at the Wheel: Norio Kushi's Highway Adventures and the Unmasking of the Phantom Self (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780986445736)

Be advised that you read this book at your own risk: chances are, it will at least challenge your conceptual understanding of reality and may even alter forever how you see the world.

Norio's Kushi's insights, the windfall of long hours on the road, are the stuff of practical wisdom. The ability to question one's reality is the first requisite of evolutionary change. Awakening-you might also call it spiritual transformation or enlightenment-is neither a solution to life's problems nor a goal to be achieved through personal endeavor but, rather, a ground zero, a place to come from if one is to live a productive and fulfilling life.

This is the story of Norio Kushi's journey, how he was born in New York City to Japanese parents, Michio and Aveline Kushi, how he grew up and came of age within the eccentric surroundings of the Boston macrobiotic community of the 1960s and 1970s, and how, since then, he has consistently been guided by his intuition.
