Opis

Society typically encourages us to focus most of our attention, and efforts, on the material path in life, including our physical world, outer appearances, material possessions and success. Naturally, then, we also look to these things for our sense of meaning, connection, fulfilment, aliveness and depth. But, one day, we realise that no matter how much we actually do, have, or achieve in the outside material world, we're left somewhat empty, uninspired and unfulfilled. Society rarely teaches us about the spiritual path of our life, which includes the inner reality of our creative spirit, feelings, and soul. If anything, it typically encourages us to dismiss, hide, and ignore it. But, this is just as critical to our experience, and quality, of life ...arguably even more so. Our inner, spiritual landscape is the very core of our existence ...the essence of all that we are. This part of us has to be included if we're to find true meaning, connection, fulfilment, aliveness and depth out in the material world. Both paths are vital in life, with each offering us a different way to know, and experience, our world. We inevitably do best, then, when we consciously focus on both. My guide provides a simple, poetic account of how life can be seen, and experienced, differently from the perspective of each path, comparing: - What Guides Us (Source or Society & Ego) - The Nature of Our Self (True Self or Created Self) - Our Source of Energy (Spirit or Willpower) - Our Response to Feelings (Explored or Ignored) - Our Quality of Being (Wealth or Poverty) - Our Everyday Experiences (Living or Existing) - Our Becoming (More or Less) - Our Health (Promoted or Impacted) It explains how, and why, the two paths coexist and stresses the importance of sharing our true spiritual Self out in the material world. It's illustrated throughout, and is easily read within one sitting, or you can contemplate its sections over time. It's ideal for those who are new to the spiritual path, for those seeking greater clarity and perspective in life, and for those who want to be reminded of what's possible. I trust that it'll serve you well.
