Professional Consulting
Educational and creative projects can be challenging. I am here to help you. My name is Dr. John Wallen--but just call me Dr. John. I have been many things in my life: teacher, professor, musician, writer and poet. I can help you achieve your dreams. I know that everybody who is gifted with the urge to express themselves creatively begins with a spark that just needs a little help or advice to ignite into a flame. I can provide that impetus. If you are a creative writer of stories, drama or poems I can help you develop your ideas in the best and most creative ways. Check out my video channel on You Tube with more than 100 videos on poetry, art and music. There are also critical analyses there of many famous poems and if you are a college student with questions about a text on your syllabus, I can help you too.

THE MIRACLE by John Wallen
Dr. John's long poem THE MIRACLE about Eastern religions, the sanctity of truth, and the difference between faith and unfaith, is here read by the author himself. Deeply serious in its essence, THE MIRACLE, despite its profound theme of spiritual quest, is often light and ironic in mood and tone. THE MIRACLE is a poem for our time.
​
Get in touch if you are interested in Buddhism, Hinduism, Vedanta, Yoga or Vajrayana and would like to learn more. Dr. John has been a student of Indic religions for 25 years.
