Considering very few people know “The Evolutionary Glitch,” I find it positively surprising that someone other than myself has read the book! From what I recall, Garoli doesn’t go directly into the Tao but uses many of Confucius’ sayings to build his approach. If only our society could come to better understand and embrace ancient philosophies. It is because of this book that I have been able to follow “The Way” in terms of my inner self’s natural needs and desires, not those told to me by my conditioned conscious mind or imposed by society. Great book!

The Tao Te Ching is a most powerful book, usually much too advanced for most people to fully grasp. It is especially in these difficult times that we can see how humility is an important lesson humanity has failed to embrace. It was only when I read “The Evolutionary Glitch” by a rather unknown yet amazing man named Albert Garoli, that I finally came to understand why this is so.
It seems that we, as humans, have naturally evolved to a level of mental self-destruction. Our brains have become so powerful that it seems the mind has begun to take over the spirit. We are in sad times right now and it is unfortunate that too few are seeking to take a step back to the more essentials in life, the humble way to be.
Thank you for letting people know about the Tao.

It’s too bad that the Tao Te Ching isn’t required reading for anyone who is a head of state in our world. These meditations would go a long way to help leaders think before acting.

Of course, lao Tzu said the best leaders are those who we barely know exist. Too much ego in our leader’s today for that to be true.
