"Slow down, you missed your life"

Wisdom from an Empty Mind touches all aspects of humanity in ways where the rest of the world falls short. Jacob and Erik are able to put into words an amazing compilation of short, but not too short, literary journeys into the human spirit, mind and body. By using this book as a vessel of explanation, the reader begins to realize that nothing needs explaining. Jacob and Erik hold the Earth in their fingertips, and every being should thank them for the opportunity they create as we try to find ourselves and our neighbors in a life that has just begun.

A Must-Read Packed with Spiritual Insight

As a writer of spiritual-based material myself, I am familiar with the difficulty of presenting this kind of information in a way that is insightful, truthful, clear, easy to understand, and practical to the experience of the reader. Jacob Liberman has accomplished this in his book, Wisdom from an Empty Mind. Like a treasure chest filled with precious currency, gold and gems, his book is filled with concise stories that convey the richness of the spiritual principles he is sharing. For myself, I learned the value of living in the present because I discovered it was a `gifted' moment in my life. Put another way, when a person directs his or her conscious attention into the future, or ties it to past events, happiness is lost. In other words, it is impossible to experience emotional unhappiness when the mind and heart are focused in the now for that is, indeed, the only instant a person has any control over anyway. Jacob Lieberman, and his son, Erik, show how the reader can become spiritually centered and carry this awareness with him or herself through daily life. This is a task that is not easy in a world that appears ever more distracting and complex. Therefore, it is of immense value because it teaches the reader, in a highly engaging and entertaining manner, how to be in touch with the divinity within each one of us. In addition, the book can be read cover-to-cover or may simply be opened at random. I particularly like this second approach. However, regardless of the page, the beauty of the words and ideas is alive with meaning. I have already purchased several copies for family and friends and recommend this book most highly to anyone who reads it. It has already made perfect birthday and holiday gifts. (I only wish I had written it myself!) But, in any case, I feel I am a better person for reading it. I know that it will be equally beneficial to you and your loved ones this holiday season--and all the year through--because it is a gift that keeps on giving.

simple yet profound wisdom

I love this book because I can open up any page and find exactly what I needed to hear. It's great to keep next to your bed to begin or end a day to put yourself in a peaceful Present state.It's so easy to read it just simply flows ....A great tool before meditation..... Highly recommended

mind blown OPEN!

i've only read half of this book (and i bought it only hours ago) and it's already amazed me to a degree where it goes beyond words.i'm very difficult to impress when we're talking about books,and specifically metaphysical and/or spiritual books,as i've been reading them for years.some of this stuff i know already...but i can hardly believe there are actually some new ideas in here for me...i think i'm going to be buying more copies of this book for people i find to be receptive to this sort of thing.to get an idea of what kind of company this book will be keeping...some other favorites of of mine are thaddeus golas -the lazy man's guide to enlightenment-,the conversations with god series by neale donald walsch,and anthony de mello's -awareness-.astounding.

Wisdom From An Empty Mind

In a world that has become increasingly technical, Jacob Liberman has written a book that brings home the fact that in order to live a happy and spiritual life, the answers are very simple. Dr. Liberman explains that living does not have to be a struggle. He shows how to listen to your heart -- the place where all your true answers are -- and to realize that we already are what we strive to be... we simply have to remember who we really are. This book is not weighed down by excess. The writing is to the point and feels conversational, like sitting in front of the fire with an old friend. I refer to this book often, and will continue to do so. It has become one of my favorite gifts to give.If you're looking for inspiration that doesn't make you feel that your spiritual goal is "way out there" -- that in fact, you are already there -- Wisdom From An Empty Mind is the book for you.
