Has anyone read anything by Peter Kingsley?

1. Update: I was not mistaken.

Kingsley has the brain of a scholar and the soul of a mystic. I started with his short book "A Story Waiting to Pierce You" because it seemed less intimidating than the big black paperback brick with "Reality" printed on its cover. Fortunately, "A Story..." was a paradigm-altering book on its own, and its impact made me more eager than ever to dive into "Reality". I'm still in the early stages of the bigger book, but everything I suspected about Kingsley is being confirmed: he is actually a non-dual teacher disguised as an intellectual - a sort of "mystic with footnotes".

One of the more spectacular things about Kingsley's subject matter (finding non-dualism in the ancient Greeks) is that his teaching splices directly to the root of Western civilization, rather than requiring a transplant from the East. This promises to make the resulting tree hardier and more available to Western sensibilities like mine.

Others on Amazon share this opinion:

I just want to add a voice to the chorus of accolades for Reality. I came into this world reading, had a library card in NYC at age three, and have not paused in reading for half a century. Simply, there has not been one book better, either in the realms of spiritual literature, sacred texts, philosophy (in it's original sense), anywhere. This is a book of life, from life and for life. If the possibility of something cracking the cover concealing your life somewhere resonates with you, read Reality. But don't read it like a newspaper, amassing facts and ideas, read it as if you are hearing birdsong or seeing fireflies for the first time. Find the still place in you that is read by a book.

And this:

Absolutely brilliant! Reading Reality is like swallowing a red-hot iron ball. There is no way of undoing its magic. It works in mysterious ways beneath the diaphragm, planting its seeds, growing into...
Reality is a Force of Relentless Wisdom.

I share the opinions of those two reviews to the letter. I am ecstatic with delight to be able to add such a source of inspiration to my search for meaning.
