"the Invitation is first, a poem that has made the rounds of the internet to wide acclaim and interest. The book itself is Oriah Mountain Dreamer's first in a trilogy of books, which explains that poem. I have read it several times, and yes, I have recommended it to friends.
It is one of those pieces that speaks to me differently each time I read it, the way I find something different each time I read The Alchemist.
The book gets to the heart of matters in one's life, as the author has lived hers. It is reality, as in, the author admits her struggles which typically are universal. It invites me to look more closely at my own authentic self and asks me: Are you living your life as your true self.
a good work for those seeking inspiration to find their own way, to look beyond the unconsciousness of our culture's daily busy-ness."
""I want to know if you can disappoint another to be true to yourself; if you can bear the accusation of betrayal and not betray your own soul. I want to know if you can be faithful and therefore be trustworthy."
For me this is the essence of what this book is about and says it all. It might not resonate with everyone but it took me one step further along my spiritual journey."
"This book is highly personal and will fall flat with some and resonate with others. Sometimes the author's florid and detailed descriptions of personal experiences such as biting an apple lost my interest, and I felt like skimming to find what was meaningful or interesting to me. I did find the latter, but not enough for me to give the book three stars for "liked it." Kudos to her for sharing the sometimes painful or potentially embarrassing personal experiences that inform her views."
