How does a monk actually get into a beehive?? Skye does it by going on a meditative journey which opens up a deep connection with nature, especially with the sacredness of the great bee. This little book brings a big and important message that foes beyond bees and their crisis. ~ Gunther Hauk, Spikenard Farm, Author of Toward Saving the Honeybee
A Monk in the Beehive is both personal as well as political, an engaged call for deep listening and response to the wild heart of the hive. ~ Wendy Johnson, Author of Gardening at the Dragon’s Gate
Sitting with bees generate attunement, attention, and amazement. Through A Monk in the Beehive, the wonders of community can be discovered through observing the self-organizing dynamic created by bees. Watching the mind, the hallmark of Zen, finds apt comparisons with the mindfulness of bees. ~ Christopher Key Chapple, Doshi Professor of Indic and Comparative Theology, Loyola Marymount University, Editor of Buddhism and Ecology and Yoga and Ecology
