A teaching on healing one's self and others with one's inner light?
I'm definitely reading this...
Thank you, Caarna.

Great review! These kinds of metaphysical books are not always for me, especially if it doesn't try to address the skepticism aspect of it. Nevertheless, great commentary!

Not interested in any reference to Christ so I added this book to my not interested in reading shelf. A very nice cover and I am sure many people will appreciate the healing and spiritual elements this book offers.

I thought your observations of the author and her views going against traditional Christianity were good. She probably should address that. Because I believe in those traditional views, I would not read this book.

Thank you for the in-depth review. I am very interested in spirituality and finding ways to heal/improve my life, but I struggle to read non-fiction most times. I do identify as both spiritual and Christian, so it will be interesting to read, even if I do it very slowly.

I was first of all confused as to the stand of the book, if it's a spiritual or a religious book. I saw some things about Christ then saw some profound things. But I think it's more of spiritual then.

I appreciate books like this, very unconventional and deep, I must give this my attention!!!

Thank you for sharing your honest opinion.

I love the fact that the section on love proclaims that loving who you are is the most empowering thing you will ever do for yourself, your life here, and those around you. Thanks for sharing!

Like you stated, readers of this book need to have open minds, which will help readers realize that the author discovered happiness; and she is devoted to sharing her formula with the world to help others experience a sense of purpose and fulfillment in their lives. By doing so, Carrna probably hopes to also improve one's health, which can be very dependent upon one's happiness.
You are so right. How we view the world and our attitude toward life definitely affects our overall health. I appreciate your comments.

Sounds like a great self-help book. Am not a lover of self-help books but well, am moved by this. I love how Caarna talked about issues that we face in our daily lives. Great read.

I liked the objectivity of this review. While not strictly someone who relies on doctors, I am also not someone who only relies on faith. That said, I do believe that each person can impact their health both positively and negatively through belief and attitude.

This is an interesting idea for the author to take when writing this book. Is she suggesting that major issues one could experience like being murdered are also something we bring about, or is she only talking about minor issues like small arguments with friends?
I think you bring forward a really interesting question. The idea that nothing happens by accident is definitely meant to be all-encompassing. All experiences. It is very challenging to accept that even the painful and horrible might be "invited" into our lives. I think the principle at the heart of this concept is about our soul's path. I believe the author is saying that there are aspects of our soul's path that we can't fully understand or evaluate from our human perspective, and that the experiences we draw to us always assist us with our soul's growth in some way. I really appreciate the question and the dialogue. Thank you. :tiphat:

Rosebella wrote: 10 Aug 2018, 12:11 The book sounds like a fascinating read. Eckhart Tolle's teaching fascinated me. While I agree with the power of attraction to some degree there still aspects that I don't agree with. New age religion is a line that must be crossed carefully because it's easy to find yourself in a cult.
Overall great review, and it is a book that will definitely get you thinking.
Yes, I think you are right. We'd best proceed with caution when embracing any new spiritual or religious belief system. There are definitely aspects of the Law of Attraction that ring true to me and some that I think are misinterpreted. Thank you for the thoughtful comment.
