Book Description

April 18, 2012

A book for those who are awake- or want to be.

The inside speaks with a different language. Ancient and modern religions, mystics, philosophers, and poets have all attempted to translate the language of the soul. To express the evolution of the soul through mere words is almost impossible. The process is experiential. Understanding the process is a direct experience.

Heavy Bags of Soul translates years of experience into poetry from the brink, modern day insights, and humor that reveal the central threads common to multiple paths and perspectives. Rare insight, sharp humor, and passionate thought combine with subtle wordplay that will speak to your core.

KD Rose reached out at a very young age and has been a practitioner in the esoteric tradition for 30 years. The culmination of part of her experiences is translated in Heavy Bags of Soul, a book of poetry and parables from the inside. The inner journey of initiation- the inarticulate- is told via poetry, dialogues, short stories and essays.

Awake and aware is not easy, not necessarily continuous, and not always easy to spot. However, through persistence, we discover how much greater than our singular selves we may really be. We are never done.

From the Author

This is the book I wish had existed when I was first starting out.

From the Back Cover

It is half past dark and we are in a graveyard orbit. Travelers have lost their way. Mankind is hard of hearing. We have abandoned insight and revelation for commerce and merry-go-rounds of distraction. But wonder is still in the palm of our hand. Wisdom is everywhere when we pay attention. We hold the key to orchards in camouflage and we are charged with the task of taking vision and making it into reality, beyond anything that exists and beyond what others say can be done. Learning this is an absolute requirement to survival.

What you do next is up to you.

5.0 out of 5 stars "the masturbation of the universe" June 19, 2012
Format:Kindle Edition
It's as if William Burrows put The Secret into a blender added a dash of Philip K. Dick and a splash of Murakami, hit blitz, drank it through his ears and laser-eyed it onto the page.

Open this book to anywhere and you are in for some serious literary titillation. The shorts are both proverbial and folklore-like, the poems are uncompromising, and the dialogues delightfully deviant.

This collection of the weird and the wonderful is thought provoking and there are lessons to be learnt from each piece. Of particular note-worthiness are: "Fire under the Ass" - an incredibly funny and frighteningly apt tale of those who can't sit still. Short poem "The Way of Things" is the way it is... and my favourite: "dialogue of the nihilist and the choatician" (from which the title of this review originates) is a glorious conversation of illusion shattering proportions.

Amidst all of K.D.'s writings is a profound sense of understanding that I found enjoyable to relate to. I will revisit this book numerous times again in the future whenever I want to be reminded of how wonderful literary wordplay can be when tackling some galaxy scaled pondering.

5.0 out of 5 stars Unique,challenging and amazing read June 11, 2012
By Natalia
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
Have you ever read something and felt like you finally know everything and yet you are left with more questions than ever before. Heavy Bags of Soul is just that kind of book. It offers unique perspective on things around and within us. Every page entices you wanting for more and more, and in no time you will finish the book wondering what happened :)

If you want to improve yourself, your thoughts, way you perceive and experience things than this is the book for you. For me, it was spectacular how the author explored and offered different perspective on absolutely everything. It blew me away. If someone would ask me to describe it in only one word,that word would be ''UNIQUE''.

Get yourself this book, its a keeper. I am thrilled with it and can't wait for the next book to come out. Great work with this one.
