This book argues for the reality of multiple religious ultimates rather than just one. This entails that all the religions are not the same; they describe different religious objects, and they each provide unique forms of salvation. The immediate advantage of this approach is that it explains how all religions are equally valid without glossing over the real differences that define them. Put differently, each religion has correctly identified a piece of the puzzle that makes up Ultimate Reality. There is, however, a limit to the plurality, and thus five distinct religious ultimates are identified: the Forms, God, A World, Creativity, and the Receptacle. One or two of these five ultimates are found within all of the world's religions, as evidenced by religious scriptures and religious experiences. Based upon these five religious ultimates, this book puts forth a novel philosophical and religious system: cosmosyntheism, a word emphasizing the likelihood that in the beginning, there was more than just God. Quite possibly, there may have been five ultimates, each sacred in its own way, none of which could have existed without the reality of the others.

The Compass Path is a revolutionary system for self cultivation and metamorphosis that fills a current gap which exists in the following literary genres: self help, motivational, inspirational, religion and philosophy. The book provides a novel solution to a perennial problem: what is the life well lived and how do we attain it? The Compass Path outlines a simple, yet profound, approach to answering this problem. The unique solution consists of a refined step program which draws deep inspiration from all of the world's religious and philosophical traditions. In addition, there is a growing set of symbolism which helps to serve a s mnemonic device that allows the individual to constantly remember and internalize the Compass Path method.
For thousands of years two questions have dominated the minds of great Eastern and Western philosophers, what is ultimate reality and what is the aim or meaning of life? This book picks up these two persistent questions and seeks to provide a new answer by integrating the works of 20th century philosopher Alfred Whitehead and the prominent Confucian scholar Mencius. The philosophies of Whitehead and Mencius are compared on many points ranging from metaphysics and ethics, to epistemology and self cultivation programs.
