Love is the Answer

This is a good book for everyone. I got extra copies to share. We also use it for our Anger Management classes. Helping others to learn how to get past the negative ego and to share love with all and bring in positives in our every day lives. Definately recommended reading.

Love "IS" the Answer

I first read this book about 3 years ago. I was 36 at the time. It had been given to me by a friend 3 years prior. As I dusted the worn cover I read ... and read...and read. I finished it in one sitting. Not so easily done being a single Mom with 4 children. I found I really never was alone. None of us ever are. This book ultimatly changed not only my life but all of those I have come in conact with since. I have purchesed several copies for those I love. I strongly believe this should be top on every reading list in every High School and Middle School. For Love really IS the Answer!

A Book For the Ages

It has been more than a decade since I first stumbled upon this book. I cannot overstate how it has CHANGED MY LIFE ! I gained all kinds of new insights, and was able to see articulated things that I had innately believed, but had never seen validated. For example, there is the theory here that the only true emotions are love and fear. Hard to accept at first, perhaps, but then think about it: anger is a mask, hiding fear of some sort. This book is easy to digest, you WANT to pick it up and read it again and again and keep it handy. It's the kind of book you'll find yourself recommending to friends enthusiastically. The term "New Age" may have fallen out of fashion, but there's nothing mystical about this. It's practical, hands on, and talks about the concepts that everyone must live: forgiveness, trust, love. If you are curious about "The Course of Miracles," here's a good place to start. Or if you just want to know yourself and improve your relationships, you'll find a warm and friendly voice here to guide you.

For any problem, love is the solution.

The book focuses on attitudinal healing. The book has 4 parts. The first part introduces the notion of attitudinal healing.The second part deals with the issues of relationships. Part three develpes different stepping stones in the journey of attitudinal healing. This part deals with the ego and its role in fear based orientation to life. The basis idea is to recognize the role of split mind and heal it. One should transform fear into love. Final steping stone is the significance of forgiveness. The inner teacher is to be recognized and listened for guidance. Last part gives 15 lessons for daily meditations. For example, Lesson 10 " Today I forgive my parents totally, releasing us all from past ". Lesson 15 : I will be still for an instant. (Reminds Bible). Good book; ideal for gifts.

A simple but powerful message!

I first read this book about 7 years ago and at the time it had a transforming effect on my life. Based on the principles of "A Course in Miracles", yet light hearted and easy to read. While the message may seem too simple for those who believe that life is supposed to be difficult, if you apply the principles to your own life without judging them, you will see for yourself that sometimes it's the simple things in life that really make a difference. If you are interested in creating more meaningful relationships then this book will give you the skills you need to do so. Read it with an open mind and you just might find that Love Is the Answer!
