Official Review: Living in the Space of Light by Caarna

[Sanju Lali]

I liked the concept of healing self and others with one's own inner spiritual light, which the protagonist Caarna follows doing selfless service to other people and at the same time she is self fulfilled by her work. I feel that every reader should gain something from this self help kind of book.

Thanks for a very insightful review.
I agree with several of the teachings on this book, like the importance of gratitude and community, and I´m interested in the spiritual part. However, it´s the self-help part that isn´t my cup of tea.
I´ll keep this book in a maybe status.

This book is interesting but doesn't suit me. Nice review!

Well i can say much about this book, but it's content is very different from my belief. So this book is not for me, one needs the holy spirit in his life

A good review of a complicated book. Reading such a book does not teach me anything as I have read the Word of God through and found Truth and Light in Jesus Christ. I am no longer searching, He has found me. I appreciate the reviewer reading it through and giving a thorough review.

[EvaDar]

A self-help book revolving around one woman's spiritual awakening sounds uplifting. Sounds like the book contains some good concepts, such as positive thinking and using our "inner light" to achieve happiness and self-fulfillment. Too bad about the "incongruence in the area of spirituality". I do not care for New Age spirituality, but I am glad you found it beneficial. Thank you for the review.

Thanks so much for stopping by, gali.

Thank you for your review. When I was younger I might have liked the idea of this book, but as I have gotten older and my brain still wants to do things my body just can't endure then I would say this book is not for me. My ability to heal myself has left me.

[EvaDar]

Although it would be interesting to learn about one woman’s journey of finding her source of health, happiness, and spirituality, I would struggle with the non-Biblical teachings. Therefore, this book is not for me. Thanks for sharing the information, though. I did enjoy your review!

Yes, this book is very spiritual but definitely not Biblical in nature. I do appreciate you taking a look at my review. Much appreciated.

Wow! Your review is thoughtful, comprehensive and complex. You gave so much good information. I would like to read about Caarna's spiritual experiences and take on life but appreciate your objective perspective on her beliefs. Specifically, whether or not she can influence the weather! (Sorry, a very small joke.) Keep writing great reviews!

[EvaDar]

I was thinking on those lines as I read this very well detailed review. From what I have read she sounds like a very positive, caring individual who has devoted much of her life to healing and spirituality. There is a lot of positive messages here and I believe it will probably resonate with others.

You are right. This book is very uplifting but could have used some context to place it within familiar contexts. Thank you for dropping by.

[EvaDar]

For those that are interested in, practice, or want to know more about living a life of spirit and light, this seems to be an excellent go-to text. I can see how readers would definitely want to to find a way to reduce stress, reduce pain, and provide an overall sense of well-being using love in all forms.

Yes, I think those who strive to live a spiritual life would enjoy this sweet book. Thank you for stopping by!

This sounds like an uplifting read. I agree, that we are the creators of our own life. I'm not into religous reading though. I'm sure this book has a lot of good advice for finding yourself. Thanks for the review!

I have a problem with books that teach “that we are the absolute creators of everything in our lives, the good and the bad.” I know about “The Laws of Attraction” and I don’t buy into it (even though my wife swears by it!) It seems like just a matter of blaming the victim. What about starving children? Did they create that reality for themselves? Come on. Thanks for the review, Eva.

I definitely understand your perspective. I have a similar relationship to the Law of Attraction. My feeling it that the core teaching of the Law of Attraction is sound but has been misinterpreted as a strict cause and effect formula, and it really isn't that simple. I can appreciate that the energy I put out there will generally draw that energy back to me, but I reject the oversimplified interpretation. It truly doesn't leave much room for understanding the "starving children" scenario. Thanks for the great comment and I appreciate you dropping by.
