This is the Enneagram as never before! The authors transform psychological theory into an irresistible metaphysical mystery. Here, on the exotic shores of Yucatan, is the Enneagram personified--peopled with characters whimsical, outrageous, fabulous, and finally, inspirational.

Trouble in Tulum is a clever story with insights into human behavior that are delivered with a sense of humour and clever understanding of the human condition. If you've ever wondered "what it's all about?" and gotten befuddled by books by "teachers" claiming to enlighten and harken "the truth," this book is for you. While full of inside jokes for the psychotherapist and long-time spiritual seeker, it is a great read for anyone interested in spirituality and/or pychology. It's a romp and will make you hope if a sequel is in the making.

Trouble in Tulum is a delightful, comic satire on today's spiritual "marketplace" and the sometimes seemingly absurd avenues through which we both search for, and frantically run from, the Totality of ourselves. At the same time, it is a playful yet precise study of the Enneagram, and a book I would wholeheartedly recommend to any serious student, as each of the nine players stay absolutely true in both word and deed to their core egoic fixations. The true beauty and wisdom of this book is that these limiting aspects of character are ultimately the vehicles through which each discovers the ultimate truth they have yearned for, as the surprise ending reveals a freedom beyond imagination. Once I started, I couldn't put it down, and found myself in the early morning hours laughing hysterically at the characters in this thoroughly enjoyable book!

Kimberly Marooney's beautiful work in Angel Love Cards is filled with the highest, and most loving energy. You are guided and taught how to connect with the Divine guidance that is always available to you, and will be able to feel yourself accelerate with your personal and spiritual growth.

Kimberly herself has such a pure energy about her, and this is completely evident in ANGEL LOVE CARDS. The content was given to her in a Divine manner from The Holy Spirit - yet in an all embracing non-denominational manner that is nothing short of heart touching, and soul healing.

I HIGHLY recommend this book - it is a gift to all who need pure, loving Divine guidance that actually makes a real difference!

I have been using both of Kimberly's Angel Card sets - Angel Love and Angel Blessings - on a daily basis and I am amazed at how intuitive they are. I've been recommending them both to everyone. It's hard to put into words how much they've actually helped me on my own spiritual journey.

You need to get these cards if you feel drawn to them at all, they will make a difference in your life.

I have used Kimberly Marooney's Angel Blessings Cards for several years. This new Angel Love book and cards continue on the path of grace to acheive closer connection with God and his Angels. The Book contains references to music to put you in the mood for receiving enlightened information from our angelic guides. The quotes are inspiring and the cards are amazing tools.

Heaven on earth finally

I was truly blown away by the content of this volume. I must say that I was and still am an earnest seeker of truth, so in stumbling across this work was not a coincidence. I couldn't put it down. Something rang true on every page. In those nights and days of my first reading it, I could literally feel heaven closer to earth, or maybe I was drawn closer to Heaven. A light was ignited within my soul that could not be put out.

I am very grateful that this work exist, and trust that many would find it and be transformed by its content. Jesus is real, alive and well, and his mission was indeed to make known to all mankind that the potentiality to yearn for and receive the Divine Nature of God was re-bestowed to all mankind.

God is a Just God, and did not ordain a sacrifice for the forgiveness of our sins. Such nonsense of sacrificing to enter Heaven is all a creation of mankind. God ordained only Love, His own Divine Nature, to be the means whereby sin can be removed forever, by literally recreating the soul that yearns for this love into God's nature. This is the real Born again process. This is what Jesus taught before he was viciously murdered by greed and misguidance.

This book and the other volumes hold within it the testimonies of Angels and high spiritual beings who were once mortals on earth, and continue to have the best interest of humanity at heart.

There is no fear in Love, for you will discover all your fears melting away as you boldly decide to use you own freewill to get this book and read it prayerfully. We are all Children of a God that truly loves us, and who has given us the easiest solution to the problem of us being in separation from Him. And that solution does involve Jesus, but only as a messenger.

Jesus brought the message from God that human beings can now receive the nature of God, which was withdrawn after our first parents slighted it, and choose the devices of their own minds. Jesus demonstrated this message with his life, not by dying for mankind but by living the LOVE of God that had transformed his soul into a Divine Angel.

This Message of Jesus' true teachings were lost, corrupted and changed so as to suit the misguidance of greed and deceit, but now through these Angelic Revelations, this Message of the Gospel is revealed anew in its correct form for the entire world to see, hear and know. Salvation is an individual thing, and it involves us as individuals yearning sincerely for the Love (Nature of God) to possess and change us into a New Creature.

Heaven's light is shining upon earth, and the change for peace and goodwill that is occurring upon earth will indeed bring about a new earth. The current earth will not be destroyed by fire, but will be transformed one soul at a time into that which is truly Love and lovely. Highly recommended, 10 Stars. Human Operations Manual

The most authentic proof of Absolute Truth is it's simplicity, it's power, and it's complete steadiness when attacked with a mind of reason. Most importantly, real Truth will focus on the existence and character of a Divine Creator, a God of Love, and the effect His Love can have on the heart and soul, and present facts regarding the makeup and character of the Human Soul.

The Angelic Revelations of Divine Truth does this and far more, and brought to me the single most emotionally intense experience from reading that I have ever personally experienced.

The increase in the depth of your love for God and others, the deepening of your own faith in His Love for you an individual, and the intense happiness and security that comes from the realisation of such things cannot be missed. Your personal journey of developing your own Soul will never again stagnate from a lack of Truth. This is a must read for any seeker of Real Truth.

Review Date: 2004-04-28
This remarkable collection of deep truths messages received by James E. Padgett, a Washington D.C. lawyer who lived between 1852 and 1923, through automatic writing is absolutely breathtaking - not only for the multitude of messages received by Celestial Angels of the highest spheres and Jesus Christ himself, but also for the wide range of subjects discussed and the absolute simplicity and logic of them which easily convince the reader of their truthfulness.

The subjects discussed include:

"Laws of Rapport and Communication Between Spirits and Mortals",
"The Truths Surrounding the Birth and Life of Jesus of Nazareth",
"The True At-Onement",
"The True Nature of God, the Heavenly Father",
"The Holy Spirit",
"The Divine Love of the Father and the New Birth of the Soul",
"The Spiritual Heavens and the Celestial Kingdom",
"The Soul of Man",
"Sin and Error",
"Judgment, the Law of Compensation and True Forgiveness",
"The True Resurrection",
"Immortality",
"The Truths of the Spirit World",
"The Truths concerning the Bible",
"The Importance of Prayer",
"The Continuity of Life After Death" ... and several more ...

I`ve read many books on spiritual matters such as "Conversations with God" by Walsch, "Love without end" by Glenda Green, ACIM and many many more, but these Padgett messages have caused my soul to dance with joy like no other messages before or ever since.

Furthermore they are interesting to both the intellectual (re-)searcher of spiritual truths - whether he is interested in life after death, spiritual phenomena of different kinds, angels, the concept of God, or the creation of mankind - as well as to the religious person who desires to learn why a loving God "permits" cruel wars or what the true reasons were why Jesus, the Father`s most beloved son, died on the cross.

And above all else these two books deal with the WONDERFUL LOVE OF GOD and the EFFICIENCY OF FAITH AND EARNEST AND SINCERE SOULFUL PRAYERS AND LONGINGS FOR A CLOSER NEARNESS TO AND A LIVING PERSONAL RELATIONSHIP WITH OUR HEAVENLY FATHER.

5 stars for a must-have (in my eyes) ...

Even thought I'm a longtime practicioner of Wicca, there are times when a frazzled Witch has trouble tuning in to "Mama" This CD comes in handy for quickly and reliably connecting with the Goddess, and is general enough for practicioners of any faith or view. I sometimes listen to it in a herbal bath for the ULTIMATE relaxation Womb experience after a freaky day. (Please, be safe w/electricity and make sure you're "propped up" in the bath)
I haven't yet tried this one on my husand (Pilot, science-minded skeptic & sometime guinea pig/but he DID marry a Witch!)but it should be fun!

This two part CD is extremely interesting and totally relaxing to listen to. The first part brings your mind and body together as one. It is a nice prelude to the second part of the CD. The second part of the CD allows you to consider other alternatives theories to our existence and our capablilites as humans on this plane, we call earth. It also gives you an appreciation of the beautiful world surrrounding us and the ultimate joy and calm it can hold for each of us,if we just take the time to develop the consciousness to enjoy it. This CD is a wonderful, peaceful interlude to the hectic pace of our lives today.

Alright, I know this review is LONG, but I have to say it all. I have had 2 Janet's CD's on my Amazon wish list for a long time, but couldn't justify the purchase. I mean, I have heard enough hypnosis CDs that have NOT been worth the money, and mostly downright disappointing. I didn't want this one to be the same. I finally took the plunge and ordered "Becoming the Goddess" and one other.

Can I just say I love her voice? Okay, I love her voice! Most hypnosis tapes drive me COMPLETELY INSANE with my random thoughts fighting themselves about, "forget the person's annoying voice, focus on what they're saying...oh what are they saying?...How much time have I wasted now....OKAY FOCUS!" But, with Janet's voice, she is so natural and yet soothing that I can just "go" with it, no effort. She's not trying to be calming and soothing, she just IS.

The first time I listened to "Becoming the Goddess," I was so surprised (read: jaw dropping amazement), because I "saw" everything in the meditation before she described them, and exactly as she described them (except for the color I was wearing). Only that one minor detail was different. That simply blew me away, because it was as if I REALLY was there, or was experiencing a past life that I truly had. In just a few sessions of the CD, it has already deepened my personal spiritual practice, and has allowed me to tap into a greater wisdom as I help others. I can't wait to see what happens as I continue to use the program.

Spiritually I don't relate to traditional patriarchal religion, and so her meditation connects me to the feminine divine in a way that I was missing, and looking for, on my own. If that describes you too, I'm pretty confident you'll like this one.

For those of you with a lot of mind chatter like me, I appreciate the LONG induction present on this CD, because it is long enough for me to let go of the chatter and concerns of the day (no small feat!).

The first hypnosis/guided meditation is a prep for the second hypnosis/guided meditation. The second one is really the "STAR" of the CD. It is already creating a new transformation and evolution in my growth. I look forward to my daily session of meditation now, and can't wait to see more changes in myself.

I hope Janet does another one of these CDs, but once the meditation leads me to the circle of stones, to just have quiet, and let me "travel" on my own for a while, and then bring me back. That way, it could be different "journey" every time and allow me to bring back my own messages and wisdom.

Okay, -"phew!"- Enough already! Just treat yourself to this CD and enjoy the transformation for yourself. You and those you touch can't help but be changed for the better! I mean, who couldn't use more love, wisdom, compassion, confidence, empowerment,patience, and being the living embodyment of the Divine? Count me in!

Excellent!

This CD, "Becoming the Goddess", by Janet Decker is a really powerful trance meditation that assists women with getting in touch with their inner Goddess archetype. It's amazing. The first meditation concentrates primarily on feeling the Great Mother archetype of the Goddess and that is a good introduction to the whole concept. But, the second meditation is absolutely amazing. It's like the Goddess, the Celtic Anu (achetypal representation of the maiden aspect - female power, independence, etc.), is channeled from on high. I've used this meditation for almost two years now and the psychological transformation is complete. Women need to have images of the Divine as female in order to understand the legitimacy of female power, beauty, and independence. Without that image firmly implanted in our minds, any outside changes are only temporary.

A set aside: Janet Decker's meditation is good to use in conjunction with Starhawk's "Way to the Well". You can obtain it from Serpentine Music online. Starhawk's "Way to the Well" is a trance chant meditation that assist a woman in gaining personal power from within by using the archetype of the Goddess Brigid. I believe that if a woman uses these meditations on a regular basis, she can achieve anything she wants.

Inner Wisdom makes for Outer Abundance

Review Date: 2007-09-27
I read Divine Abundance because attaining abundance and getting what I want seemed to be an elusive dream. Since it has been done by others I figured it is worth pursuing. Happy to say that Aileen Nobles describes exactly how. It's not just wishful thinking. The key is in how to control thoughts in harmony with what you want, which basically involves thinking about it, getting excited about it and believing it is with you now. Aileen masterfully describes this basic concept with some the tools and knowledge of laws of the universe to change old ways of thinking into allowing thoughts work in our favor. She simplifies understanding of the process of "the secret" to divine abundance which makes it easy to tune into your "inner wisdom" to create the life of your dreams. As I read this book I began a transition from thinking in my usual way to practicing my new tools of thinking. So far I have manifested some of the items that have been on my wish list for years.
I have read other books written by Aileen Nobles and visited her website. She is a metaphysical healer who freely and modestly shares her gifts of insight to the world to those who seek such wisdom.
Aileen has been in practice over the past thirty years helping people turn their lives around to allow them to become happier, more productive, creative and spiritual. Aileen has another book about intuition and EFT (emotional freedom technique). She now uses EFT almost exclusively because of the astounding results she most often sees. EFT is good for releasing fears, sadness, and anxiety which are blocks to allowing divine abundance and the happy, higher, valid self we were meant to be. I am working on myself this way now with pretty amazing results. - Kathy

For some reason I had low expectations when ordering this, that all came to a end after reading the first chapter. Mrs. Nobles had to have been spiritualy guided when writting this book.

I have spent more than two decades in this area, and Ms. Noblesý Divine Abundance brought me surprising insight into why my affirmations and visualizations have not always worked. Previously, I did not understand that unless I have the agreement of my conscious, subconscious, and superconscious - even though consciously I wanted something very strongly ý I would not be able to visualize it into happening no matter how much feeling I put into them, and despite the repetition.

Divine Abundance gave me great clarity and enabled me to work with clearing the hidden agendas I didnýt even know I had. Now I feel I have agreement to bring about my dreams and I am beginning to create my reality with my thoughts. The biggest blessing, after all these years of trying, is that now I am finally seeing results ARE happening. Thank you Ms. Nobles!!!

I found some sections of the book relatively boring, however, the book as a whole I found very interesting.

I have long been interested in the connection between science and spirituality. I've read David Bohm's works and watched "What the Bleep do We Know?" So when I heard about the Divine Code I immediately started reading it and finished it within one day. I was inspired and energized to live a more fulfilling life. For all the skeptics out there who don't believe in anything that we cannot perceive with our senses, hear is a resounding answer. The power of gratitude and positive thinking is supported by scientific experiments as this wonderful author elucidates in this easy to read book.

Murakami concludes that life is such a miracle that it must be the product of "somthing great." He briefly touches on the possibility that we have a soul and reincarnate.

I was inspired to search out new information on the soul and reincarnation and a friend recommended
"This Side of the Gate" by John P. Johnston.
It's a fascinatingly fresh look at these concepts and adds insight into what Murakami speculates on. These new books have inspired me once again to rededicate myself to the spiritual quest.

The Hidden Order of the Universe

It is not uncommon to find top scientists revealing an interest in religion or spirituality later in their careers. Sometimes it has always been present, as in the Nobel Laureate John Eccles, but in others it appears as a sense of wonder as they learn more about the machinery of the Universe. Kazuo Murakami is a world-class geneticist who seems to fall into the second category.

The book begins with some very basic descriptions about genetics. He then moves on to a description about the fluid nature of genes. He is quite correct that most are switched on and off depending upon environmental conditions and, most of the time, most are barely functioning. He also talks about the apparent transmission of genes between sexual partners and the inheritance of acquired characteristics. All this is true, and part of a revolution in our understanding of how genes function. It was long assumed that most had to be fixed little programmers, because how otherwise could the structural and functional integrity of the body be maintained? But things are not quite so simple. I think that I may have been the person who coined the term "The Dancing Genes," to describe this strange paradox.

We then get into the third section, where he discusses some of his own research that appears to indicate an effect of positive psychology on gene expression. It was this that so impressed the Dalai Lama at a meeting in Dharamsala, India, some eighteen months ago. We already know that stress can inhibit the expression of a gene involved in the synthesis of acetylcholine: one of the key players in many cognitive functions and in Alzheimer's disease. So it is entirely plausible that positive mental states may do something good to our genes. In a study of people with type II diabetes, he found that laughter was associated with an apparent change in the activity of 23 genes. He does not mention in the book that these were 23 out of 18,716 genes that were screened. Naturally that rather changes the impact of the findings. Nonetheless, the research is interesting and needs to be replicated by independent researchers, so that we can better understand it.

He finishes with some suggestions for producing mental states that may perhaps have positive effects on our genes: have noble intentions; be thankful and keep your thoughts positive. Nobody would dispute the value of those sentiments. Though it is also important to note that there is research that has failed to find a correlation between some of these factors, the risk of getting sick and quality of life and survival from some cancers.

In summary, it is great to see a world-class scientist explain in simple terms that biology is not destiny. And that he is in awe at the hidden order of the universe. He certainly goes beyond the data when he makes suggestions about how we should think and live. There's nothing at all wrong with some speculation, but for people not familiar with the field, it's a bit difficult to work out what is fact and what is speculation.

But if it turns out that he is correct, the implications for all of us will be extraordinary.

This book does a wonderful job of driving home one simple but very important point: the importance of gratitude. I know there are many books out there on the power of belief, but this author posits the idea that our genes actually respond to an attitude of gratitude, which is a new idea to me.

This book gave me a mixture of the shivers and hope. Love is, after all, a fickle thing at best. But this eloquently told story of "twin souls" finding each other under the challenging eye of reality, kept me glued. Vigil is a talented weaver of the heart and disturbingly, of the dark. HIGHLY RECOMMENED.

Attention holding, suspense novel, a great book!!!

I just recently read this book. It is very well written. The story flowed all the way to the end.
I was very impressed the way the book kept me interested all the way though. I just couldn't put it down. I learned a lot about obsession and how it can consume you and send your life into a downward spiral. Plus how it can effect other peoples lives. Great reading I highly recommend it.

10 plus stars....

Sarah- caught my attention when she reviewed my own memoir Forbidden Love With a Married Man; E-Mail Diaries, which prompted me to support my fellow author friends. The Divine Plan led me on a journey through the unspoiled reaches of my subconscious and imagination to provide much insight into our twin soul. This is a novel I highly recommend for anyone who is interested in understanding destiny.

The Divine Plan: A Novel of Obsession is a dark, suspenseful about the ramifications of possessing too much knowledge about one's "twin soul." A man who has searched his whole life for his twin soul finds his other half in an unfulfilling yet comfortable marriage. As her tenuous marriage erodes, he struggles to push her onto a path that reunites their destiny and let go of everything she strives to keep. Yet too much pressure can have brutal consequences upon one caught in the middle, and The Divine Plan reveals that free will and the joy of life are among the first ready casualties when plagued with too much foreknowledge about one's supposed destiny. Highly recommended.

How to Hear and Trust the Still Small Voice Within
Helpful Votes: 16 out of 16 total.
Review Date: 2001-06-07
Do you remember the most recent time you needed help making an important decision, and wished you could have gotten some really good advice? Perhaps you tried hearing the "little voice" of intuition, but weren't sure whether you were hearing the best advice for you to follow... or perhaps you couldn't hear anything at all.

Not to worry! Susan Shumsky's wonderful book, DIVINE REVELATION, describes how to find deeply meaningful answers to all your questions -- as well as how you can follow nine steps of discernment to ensure that the voice of intuition you hear is a true message from Spirit. She lists eleven safeguards to ensure you receive divine messages, as well as signals for healing and "yes" and "no" responses, and fourteen steps for receiving clear answers. Shumsky also describes how to word your questions for Spirit, so you will gain maximal benefit from the answers you receive.

The basic premise of Shumsky's book is that we can receive information and inspiration simply by asking for it, so she provides mediations and prayers to help get us started. Shumsky recommends that healing prayers be utilized often, since they are essential for clearing out negative habits, thoughts, feelings, and psychic ties to others before we attempt to clearly receive spiritual messages.

Whether you have never before received messages from Spirit or are quite adept at it, DIVINE REVELATION is jam-packed with wonderful ideas to help you receive information more clearly than ever before. There is a tremendous emphasis on self-knowledge in this book, so those who are willing and eager to look more deeply at themselves will likely enjoy it the most.

First book of it's kind...

For the first time in my 15 years of reading metaphysical books, one has come along and describes the dangers of getting involved with expanding and opening your mind if you don't know what you're doing AND shows you how to deal with them, protect yourself, and PROPERLY receive higher, spiritual guidance. I had some very negative experiences with "astral entities" as they're called in the book, almost prompting me to abandon my spirituality altogether. But, after reading the chapters on protection, healing, and becoming "spiritually street-smart", I am now confident that I can contact the divine at will and know it will be safe, loving, and comforting. Thank you, Susan Shumsky, for finally bringing to light a safe and workable method for connecting to God on a regular basis for the benefit of your own life and all life.

Publishers Weekly Missed Something

I just read the above review of DIVINE REVELATION by Publishers Weekly, and I must say that whoever wrote this review is very prejudiced and close-minded. The scathing comments about the author are completely inaccurate. Obviously the reviewer did not even bother to read the author's biography in the back of the book.

I read DIVINE REVELATION a few years ago, and I still use this simple, practical way to communicate with God directly. This book completely transformed my life. I would highly recommend it to anyone who wants to lead a more spiritual life and have direct contact and experiences of God.

One of the most important features of this book are the nine tests that helped me to tell the difference between the true voice of God and other voices in my mind. I have found the author's nine-test program is unparalleled among metaphysical authors.

The affirmations and prayers for spiritual healing are extremely useful for getting back to center whenever I feel "off." I use these every day, and they have been a life saver for me.

I made a guided meditation tape using the instructions in the book, and I found it really helped me get the experience much more deeply.

I rate this as one of the top five spiritual self-help books that I have ever read.

Great Book

Although I do not necessarily agree with everything the author presents in her book, I love it. After more than 20 years on a spiritual journey myself, I found the writing to resonate with me at this time. In my perception, she offers a cross of guided hynosis/meditation incorporated with the idea of still meditation; waiting to hear what spirit has to say. After all my seeking that is what I have come to find...we all have a connection with Spirit and we spend so much time seeking outside of ourselves. If we allow ourselves to be still enough we can make a connection, where life will never be the same. She also writes beautifully, it is evident that her experience with Spirit shows through her writing.

Confirmation that intuition really exists! Thank you!

So often in my life, I have had that nagging feeling in my "gut" that I should, or should not do something. Too often I did not listen to that little voice (or as some call it "intuition") and later I had to live with bad decisions.

DIVINE REVELATION was a revelation of sorts for me, confirming that we are provided with spirit guides, certainly the guidance of our most supreme master, God; each who help us with every day decisions, if only we will listen.

DIVINE REVELATION was also "divine" for me and has helped me to finer tune-in that which each of us are surely blessed; that little inner guidance system that ensures that we will succeed or be saved from anquish. I now listen carefully!

Thank you Susan Shumsky for your eye-opening little book. I only wish it had been around to help me with many of my wrong decisions in the past thirty-plus years. My future is now much brighter.

I recommend this book to all who believe that we do not go through life alone!

It is beyond my imagination to find such a scripture in such a simple language which contains the total philosophy of all the ancient Indian scriptures and extensively covers all the devotional aspects for a sincere seeker of God. I have no words to explain the beauty of this divine book. In this age finding such a book reminds me the verse of Gita "Yada yada hi dharmasya ...".

Of all the many books I have read on spiritually, religions and philosophies of the world, by far this book is the most profound. I can not say anything meaningful to describe this book, only can I express a deep sence of awe and gratitude. Hinduism is a great and boundless philosophy. For the most part, it is totally misunderstood. H.D. Swami Prakashanand Saraswati expounds on its totality in only 438 pages with a beautiful style and simplicity. This book, however, not for light reading, is extremely easy to read with clear concise sentences. It has a large index and glossary for those wanting to truly study this subject. On a scale of one to ten, this book is simply beyond, beyond.

This book is a jewel. It is a virtual encyclopedia of the Divine world and how to attain it. Every question is answered from the creation and dissolution of the universe to attainment by a soul of the very highest Divine abode, Vrindaban. As a Divine Master, Swamiji speaks authoritatively on the soul, Maya, God and the Divine abodes and their Divine personalities. He describes the Divine Love path to God, Raganuga Bhakti, and supplies guidelines for sincere aspirants. Anyone who absorbs and takes to heart the contents of this book is a very fortunate soul.

An Inspiring Book!

In The Divine Vision of Radha Krishn, Swami Prakashanand Saraswati brilliantly provides the entire truths and secrets of devotion to God, in an easy to understand format. His writings, based on the eternal Hindu Holy Scriptures, discuss the practical path to understanding and realizing God. Swami Prakashanand explains the intricate science of the soul, maya (cosmic energies), and God. He reconciles the Hindu philosophies and reveals the path to God: Bhakti devotion. As is explained, Bhakti is simply devotion to a single form of God with a pure desire to realize God's love. Furthermore, Swami Prakashanand describes his American Ashram, Barsana Dham, and the events that have taken place there. He has established the largest Hindu temple in North America to promote love and devotion to God. I highly recommend The Divine Vision of Radha Krishn, not just because it is very clear and concise, but because the knowledge provided is practical for any person desiring God's love--no matter what religion or culture.

This is one of the most incredible books I've ever read! It thoroughly and clearly explains all I wanted to know about the evolution and meaning of life, the world, Saints and Divinity, and how to find God in this lifetime. In fact, it contains so much more than I could have ever imagined - I'm amazed that such extensive knowledge has been clearly given in one book. It helped me to realize how commercialized and distorted most of the Eastern philosophy has become that is expounded in the West. Above all, I really value the simple, sincere devotional knowledge that the author has shared by writing this book.

The genre of "Spiritual Memoirs" seems to be a fast-growing one and in that category comes "Everyhing Matters, Nothing Matters" - a book that really stands out from the pack.

Why? First is that there's no formula here - there's no: "Follow my 10 Spiritual Steps and in 10 weeks achieve the enlightened life you always dreamed of " here. Instead what is here is the author's story written with honesty, abandonment and clarity, which leads to the second point - This is a fabulously well-written book.

Gina is writer, first and foremost and she writes with a sheer joy for language that is abundant on every page.

Playful and inspired!

I savored this book with delectation,sipping each word slowly until they infused into my heart.
It is pure joy! Total recognition.
EMNM whispered so many truths to my soul that I needed to pause every so often to reflect on my "coup de coeur" in each chapter.
This book is the fruit of a vigilant and inspired spirit.

Powerfully clear, inspiring and engaging

As she writes at the end of chapter five, "(That's what) spiritual work is all about, helping each other understand and interpret the contents of our lives so we can move more joyfully and completely towards our personal potential." In EMNM, Gina skillfully and gracefully shares insights from her journey. There are wonderful stories as well as profound truths and wisdom in this book. Keep your highlighter handy as you read it.

Buy this book, yes!

I'm so encouraged by EMNM because it shows how "it" can be done, instead of what I constantly hear, how it can't. Gina is focused and determined and we are all a lot better off since she has shown us a way. It makes me want to believe that I can do anything.
