1.0 out of 5 stars
Ultimately disappointing, 22 Jul 1999
By A Customer
What women does he listen to? Where is the evidence?He tell us how important his relationships with Donna and Alicia are, but he does not let us see those relationships. He does not let the reader hear Donna, nor does he show himself listening to her. He tells us dramatically that Swami Radha talked to him and Donna and Alicia about the deeper possibilities of marriage, but he does not show those. The old rule in theater is that if you drag a cannon on stage, at some point in the play you have to fire it. He dragged in the cannon of possibility then never fired a shot. Throughout the book he kept himself hidden, and his relationship with Donna, his wife, hidden, and his relationship with Alicia, his daughter, hidden, and his relationship with Swami Radhananda hidden--despite his praise for her in the dedication. I look forward to the book he will write one day where he stands in the Divine Light and reveals the truth that can help all struggling on their Paths. I pray that when he has truly had a glimpse of the Goddess and seen the stars of enlightenment in her eyes, he will allow his ego to dissolve. Then that rock in his path will indeed fall apart and allow him to pass. With great respect for his intent, I offer him, Prayers and best wishes.
