"With a combination of heartfelt stories, psychological savvy, and passionate metaphysics," says Jean Houston, Ph.D ., Joan Gattuso offers lessons and exercises on the twelve universal laws of Faith, Divine Purpose, Consciousness, Vision, Joy, Power, Love, Wisdom, Non-attachment, Abundance, Forgiveness, and Life. A Course in Life teaches readers to live out of love and joy, accept that they can demystify the mystical, and begin to live here and now the kind of glorious, fully alive, engaged life everyone was created to live.
In this book, you can find valuable lessons, positive attitudes and concepts of Buddhism teachings, but you can feel that the author still focuses on and relates these teachings more to the Christian god. If you are an atheist, going through the pages can irritate you because of the attempts to force a religious god into the teachings of Buddhism and because of the many examples from the Bible. On the other hand, this book can be a good alternative if you are just a beginner at understanding spiritual things and want to read something positive and hopeful, or if you are religious but want a more open view of how your subconscious mind is working.
