The Shift

A simple yet profound book about taking your life from ambition to meaning, from the sense of separation and isolation to one of spiritual connectedness and purpose. It is easy to identify with one's possession, position and reputation, but these are symptoms of a sense of separation inherent in identifying with the ego. This also involves sense of separation from God. Gradually, we shift and turn around, with the belief of unity replacing our belief in separation. We are motivated by ethics and quality of life and become open to the possibility of miracles being part of our life, at the same time deepening our spiritual practice. Dyer describes the four cardinal virtues that constitute our original nature as reverence, natural sincerity, gentleness and supportiveness as we move towards a more trusting attitude to life.
