Images of Essence: a beautiful, hardbound collection of poetry and photographs. Photographer Bob Fergeson and poet Shawn Nevins bring together their creative wanderings to explore the theme of The Standing Now: the moment when a pause in the passing now of our lives reveals eternity."Nevins and Fergeson each take us on a journey to the very same place (to the Only place?) by heading in opposite directions. They beautifully illustrate and if we pay attention, illuminate, a search for source both within and without. It's like Rumi with a Nikon. "
- Dr. Ron Masa, University of Yourself

Also from Mystic Missal Productions:The John Davis Interview is now available on CD in a two disk set. Keith McWilliams interviewed Davis in April of 1983, only months before his death. To hear John Davis read his poems is like being exposed to the soul of the man. He felt that through poetry and oration, he could "talk directly to your nervous system; not your cerebral hemispheres," and lead one to an intuitive understanding of their part in the universe. This inspiring recording is available as a two CD set for $10.

Closer Than Close, A Portrait of Seeking and Finding Our True Self |
"Closer than Close" is a documentary that investigates the spiritual search – the search for the essential questions of human life: is there an eternal part of ourselves? what has lasting meaning? where do we find certainty? Rather than philosophical discussion, it explores the possibility of living a life devoted to a search for answers, and the radical possibility that answers exist, closer than we can imagine, within our selves.
