5.0 out of 5 stars
This book is a key to spiritual healing !, September 20, 1998
By A Customer
I've read several of Goldsmith's books and "The Art of Spiritual Healing"..has to be one of the best that he ever wrote. It gives simple instructions and universal applications to "heal" any "dis-ease". I would highly recommend it to anyone who wanting to gain a greater understanding of their role in healing themselves and others (regardless of whether you're Christian, Muslim, Yoruba, or any other religion). Goldsmith's truth is universal and it simply works!

Essential reading on the topic of spiritual healing, January 28, 2005
This review is from: The Art of Spiritual Healing (Paperback)
I have read (and reread) many of Joel Goldsmiths books.
The Art Of Spiritual Healing was the first one I read, after finding it on my father's bookshelf when I was about 18. It left a very lasting impression and in fact Goldsmith, through this book, set the yard stick against which all my other explorations into health and healing have been measured.
I've always felt that no matter what approach to health and healing I am looking at, it is always (in my opinion) dealing with symptoms and this includes all the natural and alternative approaches. Spiritual Healing (as beautifully described and successfully practised by Goldsmith) is the one exception. It goes to the root cause.
Of course, many are not ready to go to that place and for some such folk I am sure this book would be a displeaser. If, however, you have a sincere interest in what true healing is really about then please read this book. It is clear, simple, concise. It effectively covers the essential information of what spiritual healing is, how it is practised, it's effectiveness (through Goldsmith's many years of successfully treating thousands of clients), and it's attainment. Spiritual Healing, after all, is a capacity that will all have yet we must wake up to it and attain the fruits of that awakening.
Much of Goldsmiths other books will most certainly assist you in that path to awakening to the Truth of who and what you are, and your capacity to function as a Spiritual Healer, and hence I highly recommend his other books too. If you've read nothing of Goldsmiths work then this book is a great place to start.
I wish you all the best of health,
Jonathan Evatt

Be still and know that I AM, August 4, 2003
This review is from: The Art of Spiritual Healing (Paperback)
To become conscious of the Christ within, one has to be still and let go, only then can one become affective in spiritual ways.
In this book Joel Goldsmith makes one realize that God doesn't fulfill our needs and desires. Prayer is not asking for healing but becoming present to the Christ within. Only than will healing begin.
To practice The Infinite Way one must become Christ conscious, this happens when one lets go of pre-conceived ideas and lets grace enter and complete the process.
There is much work in this process but it is worth all the struggle to come into the presence of God within and then realize the presence in others.
