Patten has a deep comprehension of the sacred global rite of passage that we, and all humankind, are going through in these liminal times, and shares how we can be of help in an insane world. He gives us a context for spiritual friendship, for turning outward in service, and for doing what we can to brighten everyone we come into contact with.
