This is the best book by Goldsmith I’ve read so far. He delves even more deeply into his spiritual views and knowledge here than in his other books.

A paradigm shifting book which is thrilling to anyone who has tasted even a smattring of the mystical journey. To those who have not, it could be considered a curiously eccentric spiritual viewpoint. I would have thought so myself 20 years ago. But no longer. I totally got it. And I loved it.
this is the book that probably most influenced my spiritual development (together with some other book by Goldsmith..)
Highly informative, intellectually written and well suited for anyone seeking spiritual truth.
