A True Gift of Spirit March 14, 2008
13 out of 14 found this review helpful
Handbook for the Spirit is a treasure that could be your resource for daily inspiration. It encourages us to realize the divine within and then discover the spiritual in every living encounter. In this beautiful and diverse collection, some of the world's visionaries such as Mother Theresa, Rev. Michael Beckwith, Shakti Gawain and Wayne Dyer intimately share their personal relationship with God and how it magnificently interplays with their lives. You will also enjoy the heartening Preface by Gerald Jampolsky and the inspiring Foreword by Marianne Williamson. This insightful book is a true gift of Spirit.

Handbook for the Soul by Carlson May 14, 2004
9 out of 12 found this review helpful
The author speaks of the all-important need to attend to the needs of our soul and spiritual side. The Greek word "Kairos"
depicts a person so absorbed in activity or contemplation that
he/she loses a concept of time. Dr.Bernie Siegel MD urges us to find the true path. Dass urges us to have personal awareness of ourselves, the soul and incarnation afterward.Meditation and
self-reflection are important personal activities leading to
self-actualization. The author criticizes society because it does not encourage us to explore the spiritual side. He explores the long journey taken by the soul into an endless eternity.
In addition, the author describes the continuum of the earth and its extension into Divinity. Ultimately, the book points toward
ordinary people doing extraordinary things. The book is well worth reading for an exploration on the spiritual side of life.
Much of what we do in our daily lives tends toward the analytical
and we rarely explore the intuitive/spiritual side of our
existence.

This book was the key I had been looking for in reaching a mid-40's spiritual plateau. It is a book of answers and methods. From things as simple as focussing on the thoughts "In" and "Out" while breathing during meditation to the conflict between egoism and spiritualism. It is the kind of book one will keep on hand in times of crises to read over again. The format of brief 4-5 page essays is perfect for those with short attention spans.
 Wonderful and spiritually uplifting book February 13, 1998

I loved "For the Love of God" and, as the title claims, it is a "handbook for the Spirit". The essays range from Mother Teresa to the Dalai Lama, so as credentials go, it doesn't get better. This book works on the level of poetry - food for the soul. The only comparable book I can think of that achieves this same level of impact, is the divine and truly inspired "The Autobiography of Jesus of Nazareth and the Missing Years" by Richard G. Patton. The accumulated wisdom that is in "For the Love of God" becomes manifest in the profoundly moving "The Autobiography.." and for the first time I can believe Jesus as being a REAL human being. Either I am getting older or the authors of today are getting better at portaying our aspirations towards God. - I hope it's just them getting better. This is an excellent book, go for it!
