One of my favorite audio programs, ever.

I love M Scott Pecks work, along with the Road Less Traveled this is my favorite work he’s done. Grateful that he reads a lot of his books and that Audible has his audio programs, talks.

The road less traveled but the real one

I read the Road Less Traveled many years ago. It was a very immature time of life and I really had not awakened into much "consciousness," as Dr. Peck defines in this lecture. I enjoyed this lecture so much & plan to listen to more of them. I'm not reviewing his performance as it was obviously recorded from a live presentation from which no editing was done.
The content is compelling, as it gives proofs of the human condition, the path to wholeness(aka holiness), and also our resistance to it. I love that Peck defines his terms so well that we have a visual sense of what he's describing, so as he progresses in the lecture, we can also keep up with him, not ever getting stuck on a term or wondering what he's trying to say.
Well done Scotty, well done.
