Review: Wisdom and life practice. - This is a Bible for me. I read it slowly. A sement at a time. Slowly digesting. At the end. I begin again. Every time parts seem brand new. I consider. It steadies my path. Gives me hope. This is a favorite book.
Review: Inspiring Book - Helped Push Me Into My Soul - I loved this book. The most inspiring part for me was the idea of how to deal with suffering. I'd often read that one reason we have pain is to develop compassion. Another is to give other people the chance to evolve by helping us. I have a lot of pain that keeps me up at night and keeps me from being able to do a lot things. I would wake with pain and think, Why? What's the point of this? There's no one here with me so I can't be giving anyone else a chance of evolving by being with me. And I have plenty of compassion, so it can't be for that. I'm wasted, unable to help anyone. Ram Dass said that suffering can push you into your soul. The ego is caught up in the storyline of this incarnation, lost in the details of the melodrama, the blame and injustice. It identifies with the pain whereas when you are pushed into your soul, the eternal part of you, you can be a witness to the pain. You're in the body and with the pain, but you aren't the pain. That works for me. I had a flashback to a previous incarnation years ago when I was doing Focusing. I can't think of the author's name now, but that's the name of the book. It's a great sort of mindful focus on what's going on in your body. Anyhoo, I was blown away by a flashback resulting from that practice, because I didn't believe in reincarnation up until then. It helps to remember this is just one of many lives we're going through. Find a way to evolve from the pain, to benefit. It is making me quiet inside after a lifetime of noise. Ram Dass tells so many fascinating stories in this book, so much about his life. He says he lost faith for a few years after he had his stroke. It's easier to suggest - witness the pain - then to do it. But it works and he did come back to faith. I want to see his documentary - Fierce Grace - about his stroke.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Wonderfully wrapped up in one place
*by T***T on July 8, 2021*

I recommend this book frequently to my friends and clients seeking some sort of greater reconciliation with mortality, either their own or especially to help with the terrible pain that comes with the loss of a family member. This is a very helpful 'balm to the heart' kind of a read. And he doesn't avoid the truth of death and dying, but nor does he overprivilege it. It's just right, says Goldilocks (wink, wink) Yes, jokes are okay too. Worth reading again, some time later.
