The Dalai Lama, from review of Inner and Outer Peace through Meditation

First, it leads us to inner peace and fulfillment...Second, meditation allows us to use our talents and skills to make the world a better place to live.

5.0 out of 5 stars The book teaches a simple yet effective meditation technique, August 14, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Empowering Your Soul Through Meditation (Paperback)

I recently received a copy of Rajinder Singh's book as a gift and I was drawn in immediately by its beauty and its simple message; "Many people live and die without ever realizing the full power and potential of their soul" (p.4). Many people talk about meditation, but Rajinder Singh explains what we can really get out of meditation -peacefulness, joy, a sense of connectedness, fearlessness, wisdom, a sense of purpose in life and access to the inner spiritual realms. What I like best are the many stories and anecdotes he uses and the quotations from the various spiritual traditions. In my own work as a counselor and professor, I teach meditation as a method for dealing with stress. The technique described in the book is the easiest and most natural I have ever encountered. Best of all, nearly every chapter contains a meditation-related activity to try out as you read along.

5.0 out of 5 stars Essential reading for anyone interested in spirituality., September 11, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Empowering Your Soul Through Meditation (Paperback)

What is an empowered soul? What does it feel like? What does it look like? Most important, how do we get it? Rajinder Singh's newest book, Empowering Your Soul Through Meditation, shows us the most direct route to becoming self-empowered and self-enlightened. He explains that we are first and foremost the soul, and that mystical experience is the soul's birthright. "As we read what saints and mystics have experienced in the beyond," he says, "we need to keep in mind that through meditation we can prove their stateme3nts and experience the truth for ourselves." Empowerment, the author tells us, is not about knowledge but about practice. But, once our desire to awaken the soul begins, "the soul responds, and its own power begins to stir . . . .With time, the call of the world can be become fainter and fainter as our attention is pulled irresistibly toward the love, the music, and the bliss of our soul." What makes this book unique is that Rajinder Singh not only tells us that contact is possible, but he shows us precisely how to contact the light and harmony within us. He gives a set of techniques that can be practiced even in the midst of the whirlwind of our busy lives. He writes, "The soul is not just a lofty goal pursued and obtained by philosophers and seekers; it exists for the everyday person to find, the person seeking to eke out a living for his or her family, the person trying to be a moral being in a challenging world." EMPOWERING YOUR SOUL THROUGH MEDITATION provides the reader with a spiritual roadmap that will help us return to that place of peace, understanding, and unselfish love that is the soul's true state within us. Rajinder Singh's clear and direct advise for the attainment of the empowerment and enlightenment makes this practical guide essential reading for everyone interested in spirituality.

5.0 out of 5 stars CLOSES THE GAP BETWEEN SCIENCE AND SPIRITUALITY, June 30, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Empowering Your Soul Through Meditation (Paperback)

What credentials are required for writing the definitive book about the human soul at the dawn of the 21st century? Rajinder Singh, grandson of the great spiritual teacher Sant Kirpal Singh, was educated and trained as a telecommunications engineer. He is now the head of Science of Spirituality, a non-profit, non-denominational organization with several hundred thousand members in over 1,000 centers around the world. During the past decade Singh has presented his powerful yet simple technique for achieving personal transformation and inner peace to millions. He is thus uniquely positioned to explain to his readers how all the physical and biological sciences are closing in on the truths of life, death, and immortality which prophets and saints have been talking about for millennia. Singh closes the gap between science and spirituality not by argument or speculation, but instead by providing his readers with powerful exercises which let them actually experience these profound truths for themselves, firsthand. This book will change your life--forever.
