Lunch with Guru G: A Soul Byte

This is the story of eight messages, composed on scraps of office trash by a quirky character named G. "Why are you here?" G asks. His chosen victim is an unsuspecting young engineer on his first day at work. Why am I here? Not to find a spiritual guru--that's for sure! But despite his reservations, the young man finds himself drawn to the hyperactive Guru G, whose every thought revolves around just two words: realigion. Over a summer of lunchtime conversations, they become good friends, sometimes marveling, other times debating what in the world it means when those two words run together. You may see them symbolically entwined on the cover: a questioning disciple and his guru, G, peering at the same thing from different angles. If you are intrigued by the words "Soul Byte" standing side by side, then you are at risk of being touched by this book. Each message delves deeper into the relationship of information concepts (language, genetics, entropy, evolution) and religious concepts (soul, ethics, death and beyond). In the wake of this book, you may find a long thought waiting.
