Just so you know, this book is not about Mr. Robinson preaching his views to you. In fact, he encourages you to search for what is real and valid for you, telling us “It is your journey.” This is a teaching book that lays out the steps for those who are seeking further enlightenment. As the author says, “We can transform the world but we must start with our own transformation.” What is amazing is the author writes for everyone, no matter what your religious beliefs are or if you are lacking in this area. Your journey is your journey, and he seeks only to guide you along your own path.
These are easy concepts to assimilate, and the only cost is in time and effort, and much less than you imagine. The author informs us that they can easily be incorporated into our daily life, and especially into the things we love to do (play, take walks, participate in sports, hobbies) and the things we have to do (work, household chores, etc.).
What I liked best was that Mr. Robinson took his time, easing the reader into the information and not overwhelming me with everything at once. The book is building blocks of information, each one cemented down and made firm through knowledge. There are numerous exercises throughout the book which prepare each level, helping it support the weight of new ideas, thus allowing the author to move on to subsequent chapters.
It may have been easier for me to grasp some of the initial knowledge, based upon previous readings of the teachings of different religions. The concept of God being within all of us is revealed in many different religions, and is a cornerstone of this book. I recommend this book to everyone. Even if you don’t entirely embrace what Mr. Robinson has to say, there are still many nuggets of knowledge for you to gather. And after all, just because one doesn’t initially believe in something doesn’t mean it isn’t there. Five stars.
My thanks to NetGalley and John Hunt Publishing for a complimentary ebook of this title.
Every spiritual journey is a uniquely personal experience, but never a private one. Sharing his own story of awakening and years of thoughtful reflection, Robinson appreciates Spirit as a blessing to be shared. Reading his book is like having a cozy fireside conversation with a good friend and mentor. He offers hard-earned insights, precious guidance, practical suggestions, and feasible tactics as he encourages and inspires readers to uncover the divine presence within and recognize this wounded world is saturated with Spirit.
