Numbers held great significance to the ancients, and the number 40 is constant in a variety of spiritual traditions. With 40 Day Mind Fast Soul Feast , you may begin your own 40 day transformational, mystical journey with a wise, experienced guide who has walked the terrain for 30 years as a practitioner and teacher of meditation, affirmative prayer and the Life Visioning Process.
Michael Bernard Beckwith is a New Thought minister, author, and founder and spiritual director of the Agape International Spiritual Center in Beverly Hills, California.
I do love Michael Beckwith, but I find that I love him more in person than I do in writing. It's difficult for me to stick with him over time. The book however has some very poignant statements that set the proper tone for meditation.
A powerful book that gives a great opportunity for the reader to consider where they are in many aspects of their life and gives guidance for the journey. The daily affirmations are powerful and the daily insights are inspiring!
Bought it at Revelations 2000 and it was so important during a major change in my life -- moving from Hawai'i to Vancouver, BC. I wrote notes in the margins as I read it each day.
Michael Beckwith's writings are clear and powerful. The quotes he used are complementary. The affirmations are penetrating. I recommend this book to anyone because it focuses on our true nature. This applies to everyone. I read it daily with a group of 30 people who were all moved by this body of work.
40 days' worth: affirmations, meditations, seeds of contemplation that have helped me ask hard questions about myself and led me gently and continually in beneficial directions. Beckwith's musical words are perceptive and evocative. The book is easy to use, memorable and beneficial.
It was an easy read. Several of the 40 days were repetitions of earlier observations. Especially valuable to those who have not read the masters of self help.
If you are looking for something uplifting to start your day and are open to different spiritual perspectives, you may enjoy this book. With one entry per day for 40 days, this book gives you a gentle, daily reminder that you are a spiritual being above all else. If you are also a fan of Dr. Michael Bernard Beckwith, you will definitely want to add this addition to your collection.
