[Rich Note: As further encouragement to those who have yet to download their FREE copy of “Out of My Mind and Back to My Senses” (OOMM) or to share that opportunity with friends, here is the beautifully poetic, never-the-less profoundly quintessential, synoptic endorsement by Michael Haynes, that closes OOMM’s Appendix I, “Additional Endorsements, ‘Where Two or Three are Gathered Together in My Name.”

"Richard's Haiku's are as little Blossoms on the Tree of Life. From the One source they arise, expressed through one man's later life.
“Ah! Autumn years see
Syllables expressed in
Form: a Haiku. Ah!
“Silly syllables
What wisdom lies hid in the
Words: a Senryn. Ah!
“His deft use of few words, in Haiku's.
Will delight all who this book peruse;
For they speak of the
One Who, when all's said and done, It is by, through, and for Him
that Hay coos.
“Echoes praising God through his own voice. Reading them, One smiles in remembrance.
“The following selection says it all. Read the book for the simple joy of it.
Pure awareness wed
To limitless sensation
Gives birth to being.
"I am that by which
I know I am" conscious of
Present existence.
For man to know God
It must really be God who
Knows Himself in man.
Though reflected in
The circumstance, God is
Found at the center.”
—- Michael Haynes, Car Manufacturing Manager, Melbourne, Australia
[Rich Note: Mike was a very unassuming, “Enlightened Guy,” whose book I had stumbled across and read in the early 2000’s. Like John Greven, he “Woke-Up,” wrote a great book about it, and then simply went back to “living his worldly life” (or at least I assume so, as we lost track of each other).]
