About this title: For the reader seeking spiritual guidance, this introduction to a regular programme of daily meditation aims to create a oneness with God and an understanding of an individual's place in the world. Goldsmith is not concerned with theory or theology, but with the need for prayer. His starting point is the universal inner conviction of humanity - that man is not alone in the universe, that there must be some higher force.

"This wasn't an easy read. The words didn't flow effortlessly but it's worth the time. This complimented the books by Deepak Chopra. Both authors are meditators."
"I wouldn't know where to begin. This is one of those books where I started to highlight the sentences that really struck home, and found I was highlighting whole pages at a time.
Hard to believe this was written in the 1950's, before I was even born. The language is a bit archaic and hard to follow, but the concepts are right out of A New Earth.
If I had to boil it down to one concept that I got from the book - and there are too many to list here - it would be that God is inside of me, not "somewhere out there". The source of all health and all abundance is within, therefor trying to attract abundance from outside of me is not the best way to go about it.
I would highly recommend this book for anyone who wants to find a more personally spiritual outlook to all the New Age ideas coming at us these days."
