Publisher's Synopsis
Having been a long-time student of both metaphysics and spiritual development, Don has yet to find any other references that cover the range of topics and options presented here. In addition, he provides personal perspectives of both the internal changes and the physiological effects of these spiritual development practices, pro and con. This leaves it up to the reader whether or not he/she will want to proceed with any of these practices, since there are definitely temporary negative effects! On the other hand, by describing the positive changes in the inner, as well as the changes in life style, while offering no guarantees that exactly the same results can be obtained for everyone, he provides the reader with a real choice.
When Goswami's book, The Self-Aware Universe appeared, he thought he might have lost his chance to make a contribution to this field, since Goswani was saying exactly what Don had wanted to say, but with much greater clarity and technical authority.
The intent of this work is to make available to a busy and media-saturated public what amounts to a quick-reference manual that can help everyone increase their connection with the universe... with the spiritual side of themselves.
