"This audiobook is about the phenomena and integration of the awakening process inherent in human evolution. The author explores how a fundamental shift in consciousness has the power to change our most deeply held assumptions about culture, health and disease, sexuality, parenting, war, and most importantly, relationships.
With The Black Butterfly, Richard Moss has composed a symphony of wonderment and beauty about love and aliveness, while also reclaiming the healing potential of our darker secrets.
Richard Moss is highly regarded for his profound work as a teacher and catalyst of transformation, and for his courage and willingness to embody higher energy without denying his humanness. His work touches all areas of service, including health, business, counselling and religious life.
This updated 2026 edition marks the return of this essential work in audiobook format and features a new preface read by the author."
"Many people obstruct their innate potential through repeated patterns of emotional struggle and suffering. This practical, hands-on guide explains why and how people habitually fall into this trap and provides a program, easily incorporated into everyday life, that frees them from this destructive behavior. Using a simple mandala, the book illustrates the four places humans go when they feel threatened, uncomfortable, or aren’t fully centered or grounded in the present moment. Like a trail of pebbles left behind on a hike, it helps trace the path back to the authentic self. Drawing on his three decades of teaching consciousness, Richard Moss plays the role of wise shepherd, accompanying and encouraging the reader on a journey toward the genius within and away from fear and other limitations. Most importantly, he offers an always-available compass that directs readers back to the true self, and into the magic of the present moment."
"Learn how you can move through your days with greater peace and joy. Dr. Moss has developed a map of the ways we lose our awareness and let suffering take hold of our lives. He helps us find the way back to our center and the ability to be in the present, so that pain is transformed and we rediscover our compassion-for ourselves, for others, and for the world."
"On this inspirational audio program, spiritual teachers Richard Moss, M.D., and Deepak Chopra, M.D., discuss our relationship with the infinite, the meaning of the spiritual path, and our intimacy with that which is eternal. Moss defines the spiritual path as a process that ultimately brings us to a deep and innate sense of joy, and that takes our fears and makes them our friends. He says that when we make a sincere commitment to consciousness, we decide to become disciples of ourselves. If we take a different path, then suffering becomes our teacher.Chopra refers to spirituality as a domain of awareness where we discover our universality. He emphasizes that the core of our being is identical to the ultimate realm of every other being. When we experience intimacy with ourselves, with God, and with the infinite, this is the most wonderful journey we can take."
"These dedicated explorers of human consciousness offer a stimulating view of what could be possible if we learned to use our everyday situations, our body awareness, and our family relationships to live toward a new definition of enlightenment. They describe how to use sensation and intuition as guides to spiritual growth."
