Reviews

[Zeus Yiamouyiannis · Rating 3 out of 5]

Very academic and mind-oriented and description in tone and in substance. A few interesting observations on karma and reincarnation, but not much in the way of applied reasoning or example. A good book for those looking to write a thesis, not so much for those looking to transform the self on a spiritual or heart level. Even though spirit is in the subtitle, there is really no deep exploration of the nature and application of spirit in the world.
