We are all spiritual biengs having a physical experience. Its unfortunate that most humans cannot grasp the concept of God is within each and every one. I cannot help but ponder what the world would be like if every ONE realized this .

Definitely enjoyed this. I find mylsef on a quest for spirituality as well. I have read different books that seem to be more along the self-help vein and might have to take a look at some of the authors you listed 🙂

It was rather brilliant, wasn’t it. There’s a link for the Modern Buddhism free e-book down there on the right if you want to check it out. Defo worth a read.
