Product Description:
Meet Mykonos: scurrilous madman—and voice of truth. Wild Nights presents David Deida’s remarkable account of his days with the unconventional teacher who revealed to him the deeper wisdom of the erotic path to the divine. From our very very first encounter to the 'burden of bliss' that is his parting gift, Mykonos challenges our understanding of what makes a spiritual life. Brutally candid, he offers his teaching to anyone ready to listen, with an uncanny ability to see into the hearts and minds of his students better than they can their own. Charged with provocative scenes of unbridled passion and play, Wild Nights explodes with spiritual insights into our choice to 'open as love, or close and suffer' … yogic sexual techniques including circular breathing and expanding feeling beyond the self and into the heart of a lover … and why, for some, full sexual expression is a requirement of spiritual maturation. For its honest depiction of the spiritual teacher and student relationship—and the questions it demands we ask about our own sexuality—Wild Nights proclaims David Deida a guiding light in the often cloudy realm of sex and spirit.

David Deida has poetically written this spiritual novel with his heart wide open. Not only is it a beautiful story of a group of friends exploring sex as a way to open to god, but a way to open your mind in new ways. I love this book.
Rated by buyers -
The nights are especially wild because you cannot put this book down, despite a luscious lover subsequent to you!
But no worries, they'll get theirs and more after you've finally finished it all. You will want to start the adventure of discovery that Deida conveys ... immediately.

I LOVED this book and read it in a sitting. As soon as I was done I passed the book along to a friend, but now I want to read it again. And again.
'Tis not for the faint of heart, or those who are easily offended by the F-Bomb being used repeatedly and often times in the same sentence as God. This book has seriously shaken my perspective on love, spirituality, and sex.
I have more Deida on the way to me now!

Deida has written so many guides to emotion and spiritual growth, so it was refreshing here to get a much more colourful sequence of lessons. Though his own experiences with an intensely charismatic teacher, the book is a sequence of extraordinary anecdotes that inspire and entertain as well as teach. While I get a lot out of his other books, especially Finding God through Sex, this is a great companion book.
Rated by buyers -
As shocking and transformational as the Marquis de Sade's "Philosophy of the Boudoir" and Plato's "Dialogues" rolled into one. A truly profound book which will resonate with you long after reading it, wolfed down in one sitting most likely. This feels like Kerouac's California 50 years on: the ardent yab yum enlightenment of today's dharma seekers. Refreshingly honest, open and inclusive, "Wild Nights" will chime with anybody who has wanted to pursue the ineffable truths we often encounter using sex or drugs, but rarely find words to express. This book will ravish a generation. Destined to be a classic.
