Self Power

This relatively short book is about spiritual solutions to life's greatest challenges covering the broad areas of relationships, health and wellbeing, success and personal growth. It is exceptionally well organised in terms of contents, subdivisions and summaries at the end of each chapter. A spiritual solution involves the expansion of awareness and understanding and more especially our perceptions, beliefs, assumptions, expectations and feelings. In each of the four areas considered in detail, Deepak analyses the factors involved and makes broad recommendations about the kind of attitudes and actions that can be taken. The middle section of the book consists of answers to individual letters sent to him, in which readers will recognise their own issues. The last part is about creating your own solutions based on an understanding of these workings of consciousness with its intrinsic creative and balancing capacities. There is guidance about how to awaken your deep awareness and indications of seven levels of illusion with their corresponding problems. At one end one has problems associated with conformity and at the other with being a visionary. One of the most important points is aligning oneself with one's true purpose on the journey towards unity consciousness. The book is full of deep practical wisdom derived from a lifetime of experience and reflection.
