A word on Edgar Cayce
35 years ago Edgar came to me along with many other explorations of the mind - including Paul Twitchel, Buddha, Jesus of Nazareth, the Tibetan Book of the Dead, Vishnu, Alan Watts, and the list goes on. Edgar's philosophy’s as stated through his readings permeated my mind at some of the crucial points in my deliberations while creating "Journey Home". He is very much a part of my journey and the daily readings sent to my inbox and which I post on the bulletin nourish the roots of my being and lift me out of the mundane.
Journey Home is not a story about Edgar Cayce. It is a story about us all and it all and the power that is creation, the revelation of its existence to our eyes and all that we see without and within. In the end this reality and all that it entails, surrounds and commingles with us which is art, which is creation, which is consciousness on many vast levels and the process that comprises it's make up is both seen and unseen.
And so, "isn't it amazing" is a more than appropriate frame of mind as we live through our lives and unfold and have unfolded upon us the beauty of it all.

What a fantastic journey! As I keep reading I so don't want it to end ... Dave
Paul - you're an absolute inspiration! -- Night Clouds (Roger, Steve & Angie)
Hey Brother I bought your book and I am definitely digging it ... Devin
Hello from the United Kingdom. Thanks for a brilliant book ... Terry
Well done my friend!!! Loved it ... Woody
I must tell you how truthful and inspiring it was ... Debbie H
"A notably fearless use of stream of consciousness!" ... Rob
"Paul... I’ve been spreading the word about Journey Home like a daycare spreads germs. The first copy I got I've read over and over…and I will I have to say again…excellent read! Much love & light" ... Renee
"Paul, I got Journey Home sent to my house and eagerly devoured it on a trip to New York and back via a long delay courtesy Delta Airlines. You proved to be a great companion... YOU ROCK" ... Ken
"The unexpected twists and turns continued to peak my interest, and the first night I read till I could see no more. A book of this quality is an amazing gift for all to read....and understand!" ... Dusty
"I was in awe of Journey Home. It reminded me to really listen. Journey Home shines and it is a great adventure. I am so glad to have read this book!! Glad it arrived on my path. We need more writers like you"...Debbie
"I have become so discouraged when I look around and see what is happening in this existence; but then there are people, such as yourself, and things, such as this book, that give me reason to continue going ahead and being positive." ... Donna
"Journey Home is...amazing. It is written with such care and nurture. I was reeled in so strongly by carefully threaded passages throughout the story. You provoked in me, a renewed vigor...and captured me through your use of carefully chosen descriptions and seemingly effortless wording.
Journey Home conveyed an immense array of existential thoughts and questions, not easily verbalized by most because of their intense and provocative nature. While some passages are often cerebral, they are met equally by the heart.
In the bigger sense, you cleverly ask readers to think beyond themselves and beyond the ordinary range of perception...and get us to consider what we really could accomplish together." ... A.J.
"I just finished reading Journey Home and I can't tell you how bowled over I am. It is so insightful and powerful and it emanates such wonderment of reality...Phenomenal on so many levels...tremendous!" ... Aimee'
"I just read "The DaVinci Code" a great story, but not really all that well written. Your writing is much better, evocative and inspiring!" ... Brooke

Who I'd like to meet: Journey Home is the story of Danny and his band giving it one more try as they venture through Florida and Louisiana looking for a steady gig and something to eat. Their travels take them from an old brothel on the back bay in Florida through Mississippi in the middle of the night and straight into the heart of New Orleans. Their wild and chaotic ride forces them to run and hide from a crazy world only to come to terms with themselves and it all.
Burke takes us to a town that is a microcosm of the modern society we have created. It is a world fraught with crimes, indifference, and cynicism. The characters are in their individual ways disillusioned and broken souls. But even so, the band members have their dreams and their music. Whether the band will eventually fulfill their dreams or not is only one of the interesting points of the book.
Journey Home is a philosophical exploration of life and its realities. With protagonists that breathe and live music, this book no doubt will please music lovers. But this work is not merely about music. Paul Burke makes an ultimate statement about life and living, one that will inspire and challenge every human being about the world we have built for ourselves.
Paul Burke has a long and rich background in the visual arts, broadcasting, music and theater. He has been creating in one medium or another for over thirty years. He spent ten of those years as a leading contributor to WLFR, a public radio station he helped to start, guide and define. He championed and interviewed individual artists such as Doc Watson, Tom Rush, Rory Block, and Arlo Guthrie. His show was dedicated to non-commercial artists and environmental causes. Through WLFR, grass roots organizations were able to express their civic concerns stopping a trash incinerator in an ecologically sensitive waterway in Egg Harbor Township, banning the burn of trash and waste off the coast of Cape May, New Jersey, and moving a major manufacturer to recycle.
Journey Home is a result of the thirty plus years Paul Burke has spent in the world of audio and visual arts, performing at small venues, touring with a national theater group, and championing environmental activism.

When I was in Africa a couple of decades ago, I camped for a stretch in the territory of a lion pride comprising 3 males, 10 females and 22 cubs.
The 3 pride-males, named Agamemnon, Achilles and Hector (AAH), were about 6 years of age and very much in their prime. Their 22 cubs were thriving under their protection - protection against predators,
and the coalition of four 4-year-old prideless bachelors, who had been loitering in the neighborhood.
Due to the superior fighting prowess of AAH, they had been kicking the butts of the Gang of Four (GOF), so far. If the GOF drove out or killed AAH, they would kill all their cubs so that the lionesses would have cubs bearing their genes. AAH would be able to repel GOF for another couple of years, which was a fairly stable long term scenario in lion terms. What was unforeseen was that a trophy hunter killed Achilles.
Now with only Agamemnon and Hector holding the fort, they were no match for the GOF. Valiantly, AH tried to defend their offspring, but it was a matter of fighting to the last cub before they both were killed. The 10 lionesses became the spoils of war. And so, a new leonine dynasty was born. But through it all, 25 lives were loss, all due to one single bullet fired by one egomaniacal trophy hunter. Shame on Safari Club International! And shame on you Mr. President, for support hunting.
Dolphin brains are larger than ours (1600 CC vs1450 CC). Who are we to say what they can or cannot think? Anthony Marr's latest creation: [Conversation with a Dolphin], was the jewel of last Friday's Animal Voices talkshow.
will be Anthony Marr's guests on Animal Voices this Friday, when we will be charting a course for humanity.

Which of the following 3 alternatives would you wish for these fawns?
If you prefer the 3rd alternative, please join the Anti-Hunting-Alliance (AHA) currently being forged by Heal Our Planet Earth (HOPE - www.HOPE-CARE.org), which initially will seek to accomplish the following:
1. Support local campaigns against the culling and bow-hunting of deer in urban, suburban and park environments.
2. Integrate the local deer-battles into a national Deer War.
3. Launch massive internet and media campaigns on local and national levels.
4. Launch federal-level class-action legal challenges against the state-level Hunter Harassment laws for violating the freedom of speech and property rights of non-hunters and anti-hunters as guaranteed by the U.S. Constitution (listen to the Jan Haagensen interview by Anthony Marr on Animal Voices in www.myspace.com/AnthonyMarr).
There will be a higher aim with the success of some or all of the above objectives: To terminate Recreational Hunting and Trophy Hunting, period.
Please contact Anthony Marr via MS messaging or email (Anthony-Marr@HOPE-CARE.org) and let's roll!
Autumn has always been loved. But lately, sadly, I've heard cries of "They've made me hate the fall!", due to the annual bloodbath of deer. To sooth your frazzled nerves, let me share with you [Nocturnal Meditation: a gift of peace] - music by Chopin (Nocturne in E-flat) and Massenet (Meditation, performed by Anne Sophie Mutter); photography by Anthony Marr. If you have already seen/heard it, be enchanted all over again, and pass it on.
Descending from the sublime to the ridiculous, a hunter addressed me as "Dear Rush Limbaugh of Animal Rights". Haha! No thanks. But if Limbaugh can do it on his medieval mindset, so can I on my futuristic one. This coming Friday, 3-4pm ET/12-1pm PT, on Animal Voices, I will just bare my soul, open my heart, and speak my mind. And you are invited to do likewise. Just call 1- 604- 684- 7561, and speak your mind.

or say hi!
