Synopsis

What Jah Feels: The Words of the Scribe is a book written to evoke emotion into the reader and provoke deep thought into the daily life of those who peruse its pages. The common theme found in this writing is echoed by the title. We are not here alone. We are directed, nurtured, and even inspired by a force or forces beyond our general sensory awareness. Our spirits are alive and influenced by past loves, angels, feelings, and emotions, but most of all, by an all-wise God who feels every emotion we do and fills us with his inspiration and his own desires to direct our every step. Whether it is the movement of the pen or the thoughts of desire held between a man and the woman he loves, all these things are governed by a deeper sense found in the soul and spirit. Etched in these pages is the story of an Old Testament Torah scribe found in the modern world. It is a diary, a learning manual, a meditative script, or just a psalm of Shehan the little hands of Jah.

About the Author

Moses Shehan Dana Lee was born in Brooklyn NY in 1977. He moved to Jamaica Queens, New York as a young child of three years of age. Born to Jamaican parents Hugh Dwyer and Joan Walker he was given the name Paul Dwyer at birth. Moses Shehan grew up as the last of 8 children from his father, and the last of 2 from his mother and father. Nurtured by an artistic drive Moses Shehan began writing poems at the young age of 10years old. He attended St Anthony catholic school, but soon found a strong urge in him to seek his own spiritual path. Moses studied Buddhist theories and a Martial Arts philosopher such as Bruce Lee, became immersed by the Rastafarian culture of his home land Jamaica, and was hence drawn to the powerful message held in Judaism and the Torah’s eternal message. After attending St. John’s University driven by an overwhelming need to connect to his spiritual roots found in Israel, Jamaica, and Asia, Paul Dwyer became Moses Shehan Dana Lee. His name almost a poetic statement of the new man he had become and graduated into: Moses-drawn out, Shehan-little hands of God, Dana-God is my Judge, Lee-the peaceful meadow.
