Body, Mind & Spirit / Spirituality / Guidance The gentle but powerful messages in this book are offered as an aid to contacting our divine source and can be used as a complete teaching in how to live a spiritual life. “Do not waste time looking at the chaos and confusion in the world but start putting it right within yourself. Quietly go about doing My will. You do not have to talk about it but simply live it. Transform the chaos and confusion in your own life to peace, serenity, tranquillity and become a useful member of society and the world you live in. Start with yourself where you know you can do something, and then work outward.” Footprints on the Path will bring you total faith in the process of living--to trust God, the universe, spirit, love, or whatever we choose to call the divine source. Eileen Caddy (1917-2006) is known worldwide as one of the three founders of the Findhorn Foundationin Scotland. The books that have flowed from her inspiration have drawn multitudes to the Findhorn community. In her own person, Eileen Caddy, divinely ordinary as she described herself, has pushed the limits of the ordinary person’s experience to the very borders of the kingdom of God.
I found this book in 1979 and it helped me. In time, it led me to living at Findhorn and even getting to know Eileen a little (though she found me a bit too intense I think).
Obviously any Spiritual Self Help book is going to have acres of diamonds, which this one does. The author writes as if she is speaking for God in the 1st tense. Pretty slow reading, a bit tedious.
