In the aftermath of 9/11 . . . Larry, a successful young Los Angeles lawyer, and his dog, Zeus, negotiate a life-changing, two-and-a-half-day odyssey that leads them to Joshua Tree National Park. There, Larry encounters an array of unlikely teachers including talking trees and stones, white buffaloes, and a rap-spouting raccoon. These unorthodox characters mock conventional wisdom with irreverential humor to reveal to him the back-stage mechanics of Creation. Larry for the first time understands who he really is and why he has chosen to be born on Earth at this precise time. He also comes to appreciate the perfection of the Great Experiment and the extraordinary possibilities awaiting the human race; should it awaken before it's too late.

A Playful, Yet Profound Exploration of All That Is
Jean-Claude Koven's delightful book, GOING DEEPER takes the reader on a spiritual journey with a Los Angeles lawyer (Larry) and his dog (Zeus) to Joshua Tree National Park. Larry's journey truly begins when he is startled to hear his dog talking to him... helping him awaken to a much deeper understanding of his life, the universe, and everything. The main premise of GOING DEEPER is that there are millions of "Wanderers," advanced souls from distant dimensions, who feel like they are not quite of this world, but need help remembering what they are doing here on Earth at this time.
Through discussions with Zeus and several other wise yet irreverent teachers (such as a raccoon, a juniper tree, and stones) Larry explores such diverse topics as consciousness, chakras, finding one's life purpose, and communicating with one's High Self and the Akashic records. GOING DEEPER balances its serious subject matter with zany humor, as it does an outstanding job of combining spiritual concepts from a variety of esoteric teachings into a cohesive whole.
My favorite part of GOING DEEPER was the description of the secret to fully awakening through increasing awareness via focused questioning. Many such tools and meditations are provided through GOING DEEPER, which reads like a spiritual self-help book disguised as a novel. I was pleased to find fascinating ideas liberally sprinkled throughout the story, so I'd find myself feeling the happy glow of these shining ideas for days afterward.
Spiritual seekers will find pearls of wisdom and belly laughs galore in this playful yet profound exploration of all that is.
A profound metaphysical work
Going Deeper: How ToMake Sense Of Your Life When Your Life Makes No Sense by entrepreneur and metaphysical free spirit Jean-Claude Koven is a transcendent work of promise and encouragement, written especially for those the author terms "Wanderers" - advanced souls who came to Earth from a distant dimension, currently incarnated on planet Earth to aid in its dimensional shift. Redefining reality with the positive message that now is the time to make a choice, whether to continue the status quo of one's existence or strive to make a bigger difference for the better in the life of oneself and others, Going Deeper is a profound metaphysical work with a transcendent message about waking up and taking control of one's positive influence, whether one truly believes oneself to be a Wanderer or simply an ordinary human soul beset with the same multitude of complex problems, challenges, and opportunities as anyone else.
Deep message for higher dimensional living
Reviewed by Irene Watson for Reader Views (3/06)
The first thing that attracted me to "Going Deeper" is the cover. It is the most serene and beautiful cover I've seen for a long time. If we say that we judge the book by its cover, this is one that can be judged. The inside truths are as dynamic as the outside.
Jean-Claude Koven weaves a vibrant fictional plot with two characters, Larry, a Los Angeles lawyer, and Zeus, a dog that is a "genetic marvel - part everything." They take a 3 day trip into the Joshua Tree National Park, meeting wise teachers along the way. The teachers came in various forms such as Junie the talking Juniper Tree and Kichi, the androgynous Body Elemental. Each teacher portrays an aspect of wisdom that truth seekers seek.
Interspersed with humor, "Going Deeper" gives the reader a three dimensional look into the wisdom of the ages, including Akashic records, Phoenix rising, Law of Purpose, and Free Will, to create a path for spiritual awakening. "More than sixty million entities willingly accepted the assignment . . . to assist transition into the next paradigm." The entities are referred to as the Wanderers, or more traditionally known as the Light Workers. Koven's book transcribes one Wanderers' journey to enlightenment, a destination that the character's soul chose when being born on earth.
"Going Deeper" is a slow first read for a Wanderer because every page has a deep message for facing the reality of higher dimensional living, a path that was chosen by contract. On the second read, the Wanderer will encounter their own spiritual truths that take them to a higher state of consciousness. This is a deep book and only recommended for those that seriously want to change their lives.
