“You kinda can’t help but wanna make sorta crazy wild naughty love to all of existence. ‘Cause at some point, no matter how brief you’ve been sorta fist-fucked by mother nature, you’ve been sorta spread open by life and all of it’s craziness. So you look for ways to return the favour.” ~ Sera Beak, “The New Man Episode 63: Bust Out of the Cultural BS and Follow Your Own Path“
I fell in love with Sera Beak‘s take on embodied spirituality when she was interviewed for The New Man Episode 63: “Bust Out of the Cultural BS and Follow Your Own Path” and was drawn in by her energy again when she was featured on Sex, God, Rock ‘n Roll. Her wonderful playfulness and willingness to embrace the fullness of expanded personality are sorely missing in many approaches to spirituality.
Beak’s enthusiasm for living, spirituality and beauty is genuinely contagious. So I felt compelled to share a short video clip recorded with Stuart Davis and some rollicking samples of her words.
I wrote The Red Book because I’ve found that many spirituality books are just too woo-woo, academic, serious, traditional, cheesy or boring for my generation. I wrote TRB because I grew giddy when I imagined what this planet might be like if more young women empowered themselves from the inside out. I also wrote TRB for roughly one million personal reasons that sound a lot like my heartbeat and taste a lot like chocolate and if spoken aloud would definitely make a priest faint.

(it’s not what you think)
The Golden Age of divine booty calls
Is not in the ancient past
It’s right now
So then the question becomes:
How the hell do we wink back?
One answer: By turning red, of course.
