“David Deida explains the heart and soul of women to men.  As a woman, I’ve never felt so understood and validated.  David’s work is a key to helping men and women alike take their relationships one step further.  Finally, a clear and brilliant guide to unraveling the mystery of relationships.” Marci Shimoff, Co-author of \u003ci\u003eChicken Soup for a Woman’s Soul\u003c\/i\u003e   “Being able to reach and live integrated sex, relationship, and transcendence is no easy task.  It requires immense courage, wisdom, and above all, fearless loving.  In Deida, all this gets included in one radical teaching.  You’ll learn how to open your heart and integrate the need to sleep with every attractive woman you see, deal appropriately with a woman’s emotional chaos, give your gift to the word and lover, and finally transcend the whole lot by including it all.” Vijay Rana, \u003ci\u003eThe Watkins Review\u003c\/i\u003e   “Deida brilliantly lays bare the hidden psychology of feminine and masculine and offers clear instructions for tapping into our deepest core and achieving true harmony through sexual intimacy.  I feel that Deida has reached a new level of poetic genius in his writing, and his understanding of feminine psychology astounds me.” Miranda Shaw, PhD, Author of \u003ci\u003ePassionate Enlightenment:  Women in Tantric Buddhism\u003c\/i\u003e   “David Deida’s teachings on this central human concern, sexuality, emanate from a deeply trustworthy source.  He has undergone his own rigorous training and practice, which manifests in precise, gentle, and thorough teachings.  Many spiritual traditions, including Zen, have excluded or marginalized the sexual experience.  David’s work fills this gap, and gives us a mature approach for bringing the energetic, emotional, and physical experience of sex into our life and practice.  And like Zen, the fruition of David’s work is openness, compassion, and love.” Genpo Roshi, Author of \u003ci\u003eThe Eye Never
