Zentheism: Walking the Way with Buddha, Christ, and the Mystics
By Jay N. Forrest
❇️ What if your spiritual path could honor sacred tradition without being bound by religious institutions?
❇️ What if solitude, simplicity, and daily devotion could guide your journey more than dogma or certainty?
Zentheism: Walking the Way with Buddha, Christ, and the Mystics is a contemplative manifesto for spiritual independents, hermit mystics, and seekers who revere the sacred while walking freely. Rooted in ancient wisdom yet radically present, this path draws from Christian mysticism, Buddhist insight, and mystical wisdom to offer a living synthesis of reverence, reason, and spiritual authenticity.
At its heart are the Fifteen Affirmations of Zentheism—a daily rhythm of awakening, ethical living, and divine union. This Way affirms:
- God as the infinite Ground of Being, beyond name and form
- The soul’s journey through awakening, purgation, illumination, and union
- A life of solitude, simplicity, and mindfulness
- Ethical speech, compassionate action, and stewardship of the Earth
- Daily prayer and meditation practice
Whether you are a former believer, an interspiritual seeker, or a mystic in the making, Zentheism offers a sacred framework for walking with the Divine—without clinging to certainty or conformity. It is not a religion, but a rhythm. Not a creed, but a Way.
Walk the Way. Honor the Mystery. Awaken the Sacred.
If you’re ready to name your path, deepen your practice, and live with spiritual integrity, Zentheism offers a guide for the journey.
