Review of The Unbound Soul
The nonfiction book The Unbound Soul: A Visionary Guide to Spiritual Transformation and Enlightenment by Richard L. Haight describes the author's life experiences, which began in childhood and influenced both his spiritual preferences and his overall philosophy, with an emphasis on spiritual transformation.
At the early age of eight, Richard had a dream about Jesus, which would mark the beginning of his search for clarification concerning spirituality. His recovery from depression and potential self-harm during his formative years is a great motivation to any reader or listener that there are better days ahead once we set our minds to do and be better. In his quest to unlock spiritual mysteries, he traveled to different places, one of those being Japan, where he learned a lot of new things, one of them being martial arts.
My review copy is an audiobook, so listening to Richard's voice as he recounts his journey of self-discovery left me in awe. I found myself pausing at some points to reflect and ponder on his experiences and teachings. I learned a lot of new things and would still learn more, as I plan to listen to it another time so that I can fully tap into his teachings, especially that on meditation. Another thing I loved about the book is how the author spoke of his spiritual inclinations without condemning others or giving him an air of superiority. The author has an expressive way of telling stories, especially those of his childhood, that made me laugh out loud while listening.
His view on reincarnation is the only thing I didn't agree on, as it clashes with my own personal religious beliefs. Besides this, I find this book to be one of the best self-help books you can find.
I rate it 5 out of 5 stars. The Unbound Soul by Richard L. Haight contains a wealth of first-hand knowledge of a man who has truly learned what peace and freedom truly are. Anyone who is receptive to new ideas and appreciates self-help literature should read it, in my opinion.
