Warm and non-judgemental

I found this book heart warming and insightful. In times of stress and change this would be a good book to read. It reminds you that change is part of life and something to embrace.

Where Two Worlds Touch

I have read this book a thousand time. The pages are getting dog-eared and the margins are full of notes. I was really hoping that Glorida Karpinski had written another soul revealing book.But it would be hard to top this fabulously insightfull exploration of the human experience.

Inner Changes

For me, I have come to the conclusion after reading this wonderful book, that all I have to do is relax. Everything and everyone who are in my life are in it for a specific purpose.This book also helped me realize that the journey is just as important as the goal. I wish Gloria would write another book, she is a wonderful author. I hope she realizes how much she has helped so many people. Thankyou Gloria.

If you were to choose only one book to read.....

I first read this book 5 years ago and it made so much sense of my then senseless world! I just re-read it this past week and was amazed to see how much of the wisdom in this book I had incorporated into my life, the positive affects it has had on me, and that there was more to learn that I did not get the first time around! You will want to read it again and again. This is a MUST HAVE book for anyone who wants to understand the turmoil in their life and how spiritual growth happens. I would also recommend it to those in healing practices and counsiling. A great gift!!! Yes... I want to see this book available again!

Aligning with God, regardless of our chosen path

Gloria Karpinski's "Where Two Worlds Touch" is the type of book that can lay in a corner, unnoticed, until the moment it is relavent, and then becomes a-smack-in-the-head revelation. The premise of the book is that, in order to really find the spiritual "truth" as an individual or regarding a specific aspect of our lives, we go through seven steps before we can fully integrate the concept into our being. The two worlds in the title refer to the material and the spiritual. In my opinion, the power of Karpinski's work is her ability to state without preaching and use examples from a variety of religious and scientific reference. Although based strongly on metaphysical theory, it is written in a manner that is "user friendly" to most mainstream Americans who follow a traditional religious path. The basis of love, goodness and the individual's own responsibility for taking positive steps is at once reassuring and very practical. This book may not be for everyone or at all points in our lives, but when it IS right, it will be an incredibly powerful tool.
