Waiting outside your door is a teacher who embodies every higher quality you are seeking. Who, for millions of years, has served as the spiritual wellspring for all wisdom traditions. This living example of a liberated existence is as close as the wind in your face and the sun on your back.

On Sky Above, Earth Below, you will undertake a sacred passage into the temple of nature, guided by meditation master and vision quest leader John P. Milton. Since the 1940s, this pioneering spiritual teacher has led over 10,000 vision quests into the wilds of Colorado, the Himalayas, Bali, the Arctic, Mexico, and other sacred sites around the world.

Now this pathfinder teaches you a way back to the wilderness within you, to discover how it is connected with the vast and sacred mystery of nature. Recorded live in the remote wilderness of Arizona’s Chiricahua mountains, Sky Above, Earth Below gathers together dozens of rare meditations and other practices into a six-stage curriculum you can practice and explore anywhere in the natural world.

Step by step, Milton teaches you authentic methods for communion in the wild, flowing with the life there, and enjoying every moment without effort. Even if nature now seems unfamiliar to you, here is a way to merge with the perfection in every tree, mountain, lake, and flower.

Where have history’s great prophets and seekers made their most tremendous spiritual discoveries? From the revelations of Jesus in the desert, to the Buddha’s enlightenment under the Bodhi tree, to Black Elk’s vision on the mountain, nature remains unsurpassed in its power to transform our lives. Now you can explore for yourself this primal source for transformation, inspiration, and healing that is all around you – with Sky Above, Earth Below. Includes 34-page study guide.
