Customer Reviews

I really appreciate you definition of the mystical soul. The cd was broken when I received the book.

I learned a lot with your great ways to communicate with my soul. The magic of the soul. You our a great author. Have you have some more books? God bless you.

Great book!!!

I read the Magic of the Soul for the first time about three or four years ago and have continued to study it in depth. I have continued to use it over the years as a handbook to life. My copy of the book is well worn and quite tattered from the use. This book offers many practical exercises to use on a daily basis to achieve higher spiritual awareness and self acceptance. The author, Patrick Harbula is a very warm, loving, accepting, genuine, and insightful teacher. I highly recommend this book, as well as his workshops, seminars and retreats.

A Life Altering Experience

I happen to personally know the author of this book as I took a class from him based upon his writings. This man and his book have changed my life. He has a way of helping you get right to the heart of what you need to look at or work on in your unique life. The chapters of the book are informative, clear and inspirational. Easy to read and apply to your life and situation. And the big plus is that the book includes a free cd which has several guided meditations on it which are led by the author. These are powerful and healing. I have read many spiritual books in my life and I rate this one a gem...a life alterer...a gift.

A life changing/enhancing read

Some times out of the blue, something comes into your life just at the right moment. This book is one of those things. It opens the door to bring back the magic in life. The information and the philosophy are provided to us and it is up to us whether we apply this knowledge to our lives or not. It is a wonderful book and a gift from the universe that I will treasure the rest of my days. I wholeheartedly recommend this book especially for those desiring to make their daily lives more than just the mundane grind.

Magic indeed!

Greetings,If you're looking for a written guide to help unlock the magic of the soul within you then Patrick Harbula's book is a must read. Filled with life-enhancing practical wisdom, the kind that only comes from personal experience, Patrick's insights and spiritual exercises are powerful and to the point. It is not enough to read about the spiritual life, it must be experienced, and the bonus CD is a perfect solution. The Publisher Weekly's reviewer understood this when s/he wrote: "The central concept that the soul has "magic" is fuzzy; the metaphor of magic overly romanticizes the disciplines of meditation, prayer, visualization, ( & ) affirmation that need to be learned and then done repeatedly and often, even when they don't instantly produce desired results." Absolutely right on. Think of it as spiritual aerobics.The difficult task for any writer with such a "fuzzy" topic like "Magic of The Soul" is the clumsiness of human language. The word hand, for instance, is familiar enough but it offers no insight into the experience of owning one. The word hand is no help in understanding the feelings involved in holding your child's hand for the first time, or the touch of a lover's caress; it's just a word--hand. How much fuzzier is the word magic? Through meditation I have experienced my soul. In that timeless moment magic takes on a whole new meaning. In my experience the soul doesn't have magic, it is magic.Being unique we're going to experience our soul differently. Experience is the key. Practice, practice, and more practice reveals perfection everywhere. How's that for fuzzy!As I read this book cover to cover I realized that Patrick had clearly described twenty years of my inner journey and the universal wisdom that followed on the heels of all those spiritual blisters. I always find it rewarding when a writer can so clearly capture his subject. Patrick you've done an excellent job with a very fuzzy topic. With so many meditation experiences to choose from I feel like a kid in a candy store. Thanks for such great value. The CD is a brilliant.Blessings, ScottFind peace within and everywhere you go, you bring a little peace of heaven to earth.

simple and profound

With a wealth of spiritual books out there, Magic of the Soul does a great job bringing spirituality to practical level. It seems a perfect fit with where we are in the world today: looking for answers and knowing we have to go inside ourselves to get them. The author embraces our humanness (emotions, thought, and so on), and his own humanity and path are explored, making it easy to approach. My favorite feature, though, was the CD of meditations that comes with it. It was a great way to practice what this teacher offered!
