His life uprooted when he's fired from his New York advertising job, the author is thrust on a roller-coaster quest to find life's meaning. Already on Holy Ground chronicles his journey where he experiences wonders that astonish him. He views the past lives of strangers, watches in awe as a Zen master disappears in the desert sand, and sees everything around him shimmer in a blaze of gold light.

In the end the mind-blowing phenomena fall short. In their place he discovers a simple presence that radically changes his life. It brings him serenity and an end to emotional suffering. J.K. Bailey's new website that also explores this presence is found at www.abideinpresence.com.

Bailey shows us ‘God is here; in the midst of our anger, in the thick of our need to control, in the marrow of our pain, in the hush of a perfect, uneventful moment.’
—Naomi Rose, author, Tibetan Tales for Little Buddhas

My teacher used to say that when we do God’s work, the work does itself. Here is that process. Share it.
—Stephen Levine, author, Who Dies and Embracing the Beloved

J.K. Bailey’s words guide us back to the source of our being, to a reverence for all creation.
