At last, a breath of fresh air regarding spirituality!, 11 Aug 2005
By R. Michael K. Adamson "thetenthman" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Spirituality Without God (Paperback)
Don't let the title of this book throw you! It is not "blasphemous" at all. In fact, it's just the opposite!
In his most refreshing book - refreshing because it is completely free of all jargon and theories - Móller de la Rouvière offers a common sense, step-by-step, logical, and self-verifiable approach for directly experiencing the non-dual state that gobs of mystics, saints, sages, pundits, yogis, and theorists have talked about and argued over for centuries.
If you're looking for a genuine way to dissolve your sense of being separate from "that which is", a way that won't get you addicted to following a pet theory or becoming a slave to a "guru" of any kind, this is the book to read! It's an exceptionally clear and effective guide, but simply reading the book is not enough! You have to do the necessary rigorous self-inquiry and investigation yourself! Believe me, it'll be worth it! I recommend "Spirituality Without God" wholeheartedly and unreservedly.

Clarity at last...., 5 Oct 2005
By Espen - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Spirituality Without God (Paperback)
I have read and been inspired by some of the recognized heavyweights of spiritual teachings such as Adi Da, Krishnamurti, Osho, Wilber and many others which are all great all working on the principle of pointing in the direction of liberation, while undermining your tightly-held beliefs about the way you perceive the world and your self in it.
Where they all fail to be clear however, Moeller succeeds! Immediately when I read the first pages, I knew he is onto something....it hit me right in my gut. Moeller in principle does not point in the direction of anything - unlike the others - because once you do....you start conceptualizing and fantasizing about a spiritual reality better than your current life situation, much like when you dream about a new car to make your life better, which makes it into a spiritual conquest rather than an unfolding or unblocking to live your full potential. Moeller simply lays out clearly what clouds a clear and unobstructed reality. He prevents you from daydreaming about this, and ties you down to the simple problems of unconscious addiction to thought, the impossibility of wholeness under the reign of the unconcsious workings of attention, and laying a solid framework where transformation actually can take place.
Now let it be clear you cannot read your way to enlightenment, but you can lay a solid foundation and a working plan to get you going and this is where most writers on the topic fail, but where Moeller's success is evident and manifested on every single page of the book.

Inner emotional and psychological work, 26 Aug 2005
By Vicente C. Sabda - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Spirituality Without God (Paperback)
For years I've been puzzled why those who advocate practical work on self promote a God-centered path. Spirituality Without God, for those who have actually worked on self, is a no-brainer,...there can be no authentic spirituality through belief in a God. This is a new genre of discourse that focuses on self-reliance and Spiritual Humanism, thus belief, dogma and faith are not needed.
I got through the first chapters of Spirituality Without God with the interest of an orienteer beginning an awaited quest, but by the middle, in the words of the American TV commercial, was wondering 'where's the beef'. The table setting, subordinate meal and garnishings, like passive awareness, looked great, but where was the main course, Like a cordial guest, I stayed at the table, munching on the finger food, when at the end, in the last two chapters, Moller delivered on much of what was promised.
Möller de la Rouvière's insights into what he calls the inner emotional and psychological reactivities which fragment and distort our lives brings a fresh perspective of the self-inquiry work necessary for us, as he says, to begin participating willingly and joyfully in the natural and effortless demise of our deeply-held misconceptions about life.
I disagree on a few premises, like the popular notion of the Copenhagen Interpretation that "everything is because we are,...without us, there is nothing." In my view, there is no need of a human involvement for the universe to be. Overall however, the book is very worth the read by those interesting in liberating themselves from core beliefs that keep us bound to a false reality. Until we understand the false in us, transformation is futile.
Farewell God,...Welcome to the Birthing of Human Beingness.
