Writings

Explore my writings about
the nature of human consciousness.

As an intuitive and author, part of my mission is to shift our understanding of the nature of human consciousness. I have published five books of spiritual wisdom.

My work centers on 3 pillars of practice, all related to time: awareness (present), forgiveness (past), and intuition (future).

I also publish regularly on Medium, and a selection of my articles may be found below.

My Latest Book

Have you awakened spiritually yet still feel stuck? You are not alone. Many seekers feel dissatisfied despite years of practice.

Endless Awakening reveals that the answer lies in the paradoxes of time. When you let go of the idea that you are on a journey, you arrive at your destination. When you accept that your journey never ends, you awaken fully and find the peace that eludes you.

In this book, you will learn to:

Heal emotionally by embracing the paradox that you are already whole and still healing
Be true to yourself by embracing the paradox that you are beyond time and a story with a past, present, and future
See life differently by embracing the paradox that the world is a mirror of your mind and a mystery you will never unravel

When you open to paradox, a new relationship to spirituality awaits you.

What Readers Are Saying

“Patrick Paul Garlinger provides a beautiful map of what the deeply human journey of spiritual awakening entails. He has a gift—not only in relaying words, concepts and experiences but also through his heartfelt vulnerability and compassionate presence toward the service of humanity.”

SIMRAN
"I love Patrick Paul Garlinger’s Endless Awakening. The flowing, easy-to-read, and intimate conversational style easily guide us across many intricate healing models. The author’s share of his own traumas, emotions, and recovery gives us a perfect understanding of the shamanic and spiritual processes. It also gives us a solid holding hand to accept our own unique journey. This book is a true gem, and its time has come for those who heed the inner call for transformation."

Itzhak Beery
“This book lives up to its title by awakening you, again and again, to deep insights and profound, new ways of seeing things. Patrick peels back the layers of complex topics like time, emotions, and memory with such accessibility and clarity—it is like having a trusted friend explain life’s truths to you in ways that allow you to follow along and apply it all to your own experience. This book will inspire and energize you and open your eyes to the magic that is within and around you at all times.”

Yael Shy
“Endless Awakening is a practical guide to consciousness written by a natural teacher. I had the uncanny experience, as I read, that he was standing alongside me as the stories, principles, lessons and healings unfolded, taking my hand and gently guiding me to a gentler home within myself. These are words that create change.”

Jacqueline Freeman
"This was a wonderful addition to my spiritual toolbox and I found myself recommending it before I was halfway done. I strongly recommend it to any spiritual seeker who has possibly hit a wall or someone who enjoys a more high-level, theoretical approach to spirituality."

Ann Dudzinski
"Patrick writes about this paradoxical thing called life with clarity and grace and a humility that comes from profound presence. As I read each page, I felt as if Patrick had been present in my most challenging professional and personal conversations. Over and over, his witness reminds me of what I already know and simultaneously need to be reminded all the time: stay present, hold that which is uncertain lightly, surrender and trust, see the divine in myself and in the other. The theme of dialectical thinking, the power of both and permeates the book to remind us that even in the midst of pain and suffering and loss, what it means to be human is also capable of love and wholeness and transcendence. I’ve recommended this book to friends and colleagues and encourage anyone who is interested in what this journey toward Endless Awakening is all about to sit with this book, absorb it, let it remind you of the truth your soul knows."

Mara Veronesi
"Endless Awakening is an excellent, encouraging guide to anyone on the path toward self-knowledge and spiritual discovery. Patrick Paul Garlinger writes with sincerity, compassion, and wit, and as a result the book reads like a deep and intimate conversation with your most self-actualized (and nonjudgmental) friend, in the best possible way. Even esoteric and complex spiritual and philosophical concepts are easily digestible, thanks to Garlinger's breezy, patient, and occasionally humorous, narrative style. This is a spiritual guide that emphasizes one's humanity--by including discussions of sexuality, physicality, and body love/self-acceptance as they relate to healing and growth. I found the chapters "Surrender" and "Death" especially resonant and powerful. While seasoned readers and students of spirituality and philosophy will find much to appreciate here, newcomers to the genre (like myself) will find it an insightful and provocative introduction."

Beebe (Amazon customer)
"In Endless Awakening, Patrick Paul Garlinger provides readers with the tools they need to find peace within themselves. He explores the ways in which we are often at odds internally and how to embrace and reconcile this duality. He helps us understand that we should accept ourselves for who we are in this very moment and to look towards healing always. After reading this book, my outlook changed dramatically as it gave me a new lens to view the world through. I would wholeheartedly suggest this to anyone looking to better understand themselves and the world around them."
