This is a new edition of David Spangler's classic book on manifestation. It has been out of print for some time but the comments of Willis W. Harman, Former President, Institute of Noetic Sciences are still relevant: "A number of recent writers have set out to unveil our amazing power to manifest what we want; none have made it so clear that true effectiveness comes from choosing to align 'what we want' with the 'transpersonal will, ' as Spangler terms it. His book is lively and easy to read; his clarity, simplicity, and deep wisdom are inspiring."

On the most basic human level, we all want to be blessed. We want life to bring us good things, to shield us from harm, from fear, from loneliness. A blessing can be anything-a kind word, a prayer or ritual, a gesture, an embrace, a gift.
Blessing is the culmination of David Spangler's remarkable career as a spiritual thinker and teacher: the definitive book on how to channel our natural sense of compassion. With specific exercises and examples to guide and inspire us, this book helps us answer the ancient human calling within us all.
