Read - Living in the Light by SHAKTI GAWAIN
Shakti Gawain is a pioneer in the field of personal development. For over twenty-five years, she has been a best-selling author and internationally renowned teacher of consciousness. The first book I read was 'Creative Visualization', followed by 'Living in the Light'.
This is an updated New Age classic and a good handbook for those starting their deeper spiritual journey. Well written and easy to understand.
Self-knowledge is vital to success in life and this book helps you begin to learn who you are, truly. Not who you think you are.
She explains our role as channels of energy, and our job is to allow this energy to flow freely through us into the world for positive change. She demonstrates how problems can result from blocking this flow, and shows how dissolving blockages through meditation and other methods can heal and empower us. The book is divided into background theory and practical application.Part One describes a set of principles, including:
A New Way of Life
The Higher Power Within Us
Intuition
Becoming a Creative Channel
Exploring Our Many Selves
The World As Our Mirror
Spirit And Form
The Male And Female Within, and Men And Woman
East And West: A New Challenge.
Part Two describes living the principles, including:
Trusting Intuition
Feelings
Balancing Being and Doing
Authoritarian and Rebel
Relationships
Our Children
Work and Play
Money
Heath
Your Perfect Body
Life and Death
Transforming Our World, and A Vision
Shakti's writing style provides a nice blend of ideas, personal experiences, meditations, and exercises. I especially like her call for acceptance and balance in dealing with seeming contradictions in our nature. Much of what she describes I can see in myself and in others. I recommend reading the book to see if there is something of value to you in 'Living in the Light'.
