Open to any page when you feel the need to be uplifted by the "wisdom-words" of peace and abundance that Steve quotes from humanity's most enlightened philosophers and spiritual teachers. The only drawback to Glorious Living! is that you may risk "inspirational-overload". (Usually, I could only read a few pages at a time!) There is so much to learn, so give yourself permission to reflect slowly while you absorb different ideas and grow into powerful new ways of thinking. Everything you need to know about living bountifully and joyfully is in this book. Read it--and you will truly begin "Sowing the Seeds of Enlightenment in Your Daily Life".

In the quest of the "higher self" : please no -ism's for me!

What do we do when we are faced with so many -ism's? Hinduism, Buddhism, spiritualism, materialism: each with their own dogmas, doctrines, philosophies, rules and regulations, belief structure, behavioural standards, and expectations? Religion, metaphysics, meditation, yoga, prayer, self-development, new-age stuff, etc are our escape to the onslaught of the daily sense of miseries we face from our own self, from others and from mother nature. Today we are faced with a more and more widening disparity of two realities - the economic and the happiness. You will find that most models of living, are centred around either one of the two. This sets the foundation for, I would allow myself to do without, infringing on any other teaching's territory, for my review on Glorious Living! by Steve Morris. I started using the book 2 years ago. Since then I lived its teachings to test their validity. I tested them in trying to get a cold call, warm it up and close a deal. I used the teachings, when faced with a decision whether or not to dump a girlfriend, when someone came to me with problems of very grave nature that could take his life to the gutter or raise him to great heights, when I was tormented with some spiritual awakening within me I did not know what to do about, when in doubt on where I stood in my development - personally, career-wise, socially, (forgive me, even sexually), relationships, daily tasks, intellectual sparring, emotional upheavals, and spiritual pursuits. And you know what? It is damn helpful: it works! Glorious Living! is founded on the following premise: as I quote from p.iv of the book "While inspired by great spiritual teachers, this book contains no controversial aspects of faith or religion other than my steadfast belief that we exist for a purpose and that purpose is to find our own inner peace by bringing happiness and well being to others". So if you are looking for -ism's, you got the wrong book. Instead, the writer likens your life as a garden, your thoughts, values and paradigms as seeds, and then your actions as the fruits. Steve gives you the tools and seeds to help you in the gardening of your life. But he does not stop here! He gives you a new way to see the world from the mechanized perspective we owe to the Industrial Revolution; the new way is to see life development, or growth in stages parallel to that of a seed from plantation to harvest, from the need of water and sunshine to the threat of weeds and pebbles! The most interesting part of the book, is the Discovery Cards, 28 of them. Gee! That is something I've never seen anywhere. Man, you've gotta get hold of this game! It is just a plain game but does it teach you a lot: a true revelation of your life, why things are the way they are, and not how would wish them to be, and most important on the choices available to you for bring the so much yearned changes you want in your life! But no more on this "Game".... I leave it to you to get hol
