Jeff Foster
Jeff Foster shares from his own awakened experience a way out of
seeking fulfillment in the future and into the acceptance of “all
this, here and now.” He is the author of The Deepest Acceptance and
The Way of Rest. Following a period of depression and physical
illness, he embarked on an intensive spiritual search that came to
an end with the discovery that life itself was what he had always
been seeking. For more, see lifewithoutacentre.com.

living fully immersed in each moment of our lives. The Deepest
Acceptance rings with the power and authenticity of Jeff Foster's
deeply felt, deeply lived wisdom. His affirmation of life and

trappings of seeking through his faithfulness to the humble ground

"The Deepest Acceptance is the story of a merciful awareness, which
offers us the heart's inborn destination we were born to discover.
Love is the highest form of acceptance. Judgment is the mechanics
of non-acceptance."
--Stephen Levine, author of A Year to Live
"The Deepest Acceptance is a multi-faceted spiritual gem. Every
page transparently illuminates our real nature as naturally
accepting, centerless awareness. Jeff has performed a great service
in revealing awareness as the already-present source for living our
lives in the most loving and meaningful way possible. I am
immensely grateful to Jeff for bringing forth the essence of his
teaching with such great power, love and sensitivity. A timeless
classic through which numberless people will connect with the
source of ultimate fulfillment."
--Peter Fenner, PhD, author of Radiant Mind and The Edge of
Certainty
"Written with warmth, humility and a gentle but penetrating
honesty, Jeff invites the reader to explore those places in
themselves that they would most want to avoid and to find there, at
their heart, the very thing they were seeking. However, long after
the words have faded from memory, the intelligence and love with
which they are written remain behind and that is the true gift of
this beautiful book."
--Rupert Spira
"Jeff has achieved something wonderful with this honest and
insightful book - something that benefits all of us and sheds
much-needed light on the mystery we call life."
--Stephen Gawtry, Managing Editor, Watkins Mind Body Spirit
magazine
"This book is a constant invitation to not leave spiritual
awakening where it is often left, as a search for experiences, a
way to avoid the messiness of life or some sort of head trip. It
invites you into every nook and cranny of life's experience,
leaving no stone unturned."
--Scott Kiloby
"Throughout The Deepest Acceptance, Jeff Foster offers sentence
after sentence that penetrate the mind and heart in a fresh,
thrilling, life-changing way."
--Raphael Cushnir, author of The One Thing Holding You Back and
Surfing Your Inner Sea
