The Man of Zero

A Guide to Primal Power, Boundless Sex,
and the Freedom Beyond Ambition

BEYOND ACHIEVEMENT. BEYOND MASTERY. THERE IS A WAY OF TRUE FREEDOM.

Many men come to a point in life where they feel a sense of emptiness or lack of motivation. This state may be confused for depression, but David Deida reveals a vital distinction, inspiring a new possibility for discernment and action. When a man grows tired of his life, what can be done?

Beyond the basic man who wants to win and be pleasured, or the superior man who wants to achieve mastery and serve the world, there is a state of being known as the “Man of Zero.” Even if your life is filled with love and success, you may end up feeling dissatisfied. When you don’t want to do anything and life feels meaningless, what’s the next step? Zero motivation can be a portal to a deeper way of living. The Man of Zero shows a way to relax through the doorway of emptiness into a freedom more potent than sex and more liberating than success.

Written in short chapters of essential instruction that evoke immediate insight and experience, Deida shows how to live your life while resting as Zero—being effortlessly present, aware, and complete without the need for striving. Relax into primal power. Ease into drama-free sex. Free creative flow. Remember how to live as The Man of Zero.

The Man of Zero

A Guide to Primal Power, Boundless Sex, and the
Freedom Beyond Ambition

You are deeper than your life shows, and you know it. You are more loving than your relationships allow, more brilliant than your career suggests. In your secret depth of being, you are infinite, creative, boundless, and utterly unable to press your full glory into the world. Or so it seems. In Blue Truth, David Deida presents a treasury of skills and insights for uncovering and offering your true heart of purpose, passion, and unquenchable love.

In part one, Deida shows you how to open as the entirety of the moment, feeling as deep inside and as far outside as you can, for as long as now opens. In part two, he reveals how to walk this path in the wilderness of intimate relationship, illuminating the art and play of sexual gifting, including how to expertly navigate the tangle of anger, jealousy, fear, lust, and much, much more.

In June 2006, Blue Truth was named by Spirituality & Health magazine as one of the Best Spiritual Books of 2005, in the Personal Growth category.

BEYOND ACHIEVEMENT. BEYOND MASTERY. THERE IS A WAY OF TRUE FREEDOM.

Many men come to a point in life where they feel a sense of emptiness or lack of motivation. This state may be confused for depression, but David Deida reveals a vital distinction, inspiring a new possibility for discernment and action. When a man grows tired of his life, what can be done?

Beyond the basic man who wants to win and be pleasured, or the superior man who wants to achieve mastery and serve the world, there is a state of being known as the “Man of Zero.” Even if your life is filled with love and success, you may end up feeling dissatisfied. When you don’t want to do anything and life feels meaningless, what’s the next step? Zero motivation can be a portal to a deeper way of living. The Man of Zero shows a way to relax through the doorway of emptiness into a freedom more potent than sex and more liberating than success.

Written in short chapters of essential instruction that evoke immediate insight and experience, Deida shows how to live your life while resting as Zero—being effortlessly present, aware, and complete without the need for striving. Relax into primal power. Ease into drama-free sex. Free creative flow. Remember how to live as The Man of Zero.
