Help for the soul in search of itself

This book is one to help the soul in search of itself. If you are looking to have the answers to life's questions revealed, there is something here for you. It may be from reading an example from Michael DeMaria's own quest that triggers an understanding in you or it may be you completing one of his carefully designed exercises that you hit upon a revelation. Both were of benefit to me but the greatest impact I had is when I was performing a seemingly ordinary task, raking leaves in my back yard, thinking about one point he brought up in the book. It was the fact that we usually admire someone else for a particular quality and it is usually that quality we need to develop in ourselves. I picked someone who I currently admire and asked myself what was the quality that I admired most in them. My answer came immediately and just as quickly I could clearly see ways in my own life where I had NOT been incorporating that quality so far. I can see how too that the belief Michael presents with connecting back to nature is so important since this information came so easily while I was raking. May those who read this book be open to the understanding it reveals and may your life flow easier with the wisdom gained.

PURE WISDOM

Michael DeMaria's "Ever Flowing On", made me stop and think about loss, love, hope, fear and dreams, this book made me weep, something I do not like to do, but it hit home hard, and made me review my life. Pure water. Pure Wisdom.

An Essential Book for the the Soul's Journey

Ever Flowing On is a deeply moving and inspiring book that speaks with great clarity on the journey of "being and becoming oneself". In this essential book, Michael DeMaria draws on his personal experiences and vast cultural knowledge to show how we can explore more deeply our yearning for wholeness. His ability to weave wisdom and experiential opportunities moves the reader to a deeply profound level of understanding. Michael shows us that the principals that apply to our personal healing also apply to the healing of the larger world and awakens the reader to the simple grace of living life fully, while cultivating the sacred. Ever Flowing On is a must read and will inspire you to embrace life with new eyes. The art of living consciously shines through on every page of this rich and compassionate book. Updated Review: I rarely take the time to update a review, but felt this gem of a book warranted the effort. After several years of ownership, Ever Flowing On remains one of my favorite reads. I have given this book to countless others who have given rave reviews in return. The book is written as a story of the author's experiences (a criticism set forth by another reviewer) but does so while inviting the reader to be highly reflective of their own journey as they read. I found this to be the most appealing quality of the book! The author does a masterful job at interjecting reflective questions and experiential activities at essential points within the text. I found my reflection was much more valuable, rich and honest because these reflective opportunities were presented within the context of the author's experience. I know a book is great when its message returns to me time and again. Reading this book changed me at a core level and my life has been made richer from its message. I sincerely hope the author will publish other works.
