5.0 out of 5 stars
Enjoyable, thought-provoking and stimulating, 16 May 2001
By A Customer
I enjoyed reading this thought-provoking, stimulating yet challenging book. One of its features is that within its 125 pages there are 30 sections, thus no one topic is over-long. Each section includes a short discourse, an illustration and an exercise. Within a few pages the topic is introduced in a simple way, yet leaves the reader with a desire to explore the idea more.Some of the subjects are controversial, but the author does not push them. It is as if he says, 'This works for me, and I offer it to you, but I won't be offended if you don't agree with me.' Controversial some subjects might be, but even in their controversy they are challenging. Many of the sections, such as Responsibility, Forgiveness, Consequences, and Peace, are particularly challenging, and encourage the reader to look inward to their own spirituality, and beyond self to the wider world. I would recommend this book to anyone who is travelling the road of self-awareness. I particularly recommend it to counsellors, as many of the subjects have a direct application to clients as they work toward healing.
