This book is for everyone and anyone! It is important to read Dr. Moss's quoted statements from years of his seminars in one small book.Somehow the title reminds me of another very important book, The Little Prince, which years after my children are grown they've told me how much paragraphs from that book have stayed with them. Dr. Moss's book is like that for me. In fact, whenever I pick it up, I just turn to a page at random and there is a new heartbeat, even though I may have read it before, it seems new to me.I always felt that about Maslow's writings, every paragraph, every line was the epitome of what TV newscasters now wish their soundbits could achieve. So, too, with Word That Shine Both Ways. The title is interesting, because it gives one the freedom to take Dr. Moss's loving, kind, insightful messages and utilize them in any way that is needed. I've quoted him so many times I could not count, to others in crisis, to those in love, to steady and calm my own times of pain, fear, confusion. My own physician recommended the book to me, and loaned me his (I let him know he wasn't getting it back!). Only a fool would let go of something so profound, unique, filled with an obvious love for humankind, and a higher spiritual appreciation. This book should be publised in the thousands, and promoted. I certainly am promoting it - and when I loan mine now, it is only with a signed "Book Check!" Maybe I haven't reached that trusting, loving plan Dr. Moss exudes, however, I do believe he would expect me to protect myself, too.
BEAUTIFUL AND PROVOCATIVE

The strength of any spiritual teaching is it's ability to both inspire and challenge an individual to look deeply into his or her own life with ruthless honesty. This is a book that can potentially illuminate and support the awakening soul; in reading this book one gets the sense that the author lives through what he writes giving the exposition a real heart and depth. "Words That Shine Both Ways" are aphorisms on life culled from the teacher's work over the last twenty or so years. When I use the word "aphorism" I don't want to give the impression that this work is stolid, it is in fact poetic and highly lyrical; it captures the essence of Richard Moss's teaching and so is an excellent book for those that know him as well as providing a good introduction to those that don't. If your perturbed by life and seek a more meaningful relationship to the suffering then this book will refresh you.
