Wisdom – Apprenticing to the Unknown & Befriending Fate
"Dr. Paul Dunion's Wisdom is a must read for anyone on a path of personal development or spiritual seeking. Its precision, practicality and beauty are the fruits of Paul's lifetime exploring the human psyche, intimacy and attachment, and the embodied path of meeting the Mystery.

It is a handbook for a modern seeker who wishes their life to be infused with meaning, joy, closeness and devotion."
