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.

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.

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.

For me this is one of the wisest books of the last century. A milestone on my path of soul searching. The true values of life are clearly defined and supported by many practical exercises.
This book made a lasting contribution to my efforts in gaining inner peace. Extraordinary!

This is one of the most inspirational books I've read. I love the activities that are presented throughout the book and the instructions on meditation are written perfectly. I highly recommend this book to people interested in peeling away the ego and letting the true Self shine through!

This is the most profound and enlightened, yet at the same time the most concise and practical exploration and insight into the nature of the human soul, its origin, its potential, its hindrances and its awakening. The auhtor proves himself to be a master not only of spirituality but also of bringing across a complex theme in an readily accessible and distinguished style. If anyone wants to solve the quest for purpose of one's life, understand the theory of creation, and start right off with very effective spiritual practices to open the heart to divine love and the soul to divine light - then this is the book.

Some years ago I realized there was more to life than eating, sleeping, working, and hanging out with friends. Since then I've been looking for clear, reliable guidance. Although I found and read several of the dozens of books on the soul, this one stood out. While reading it, I experienced an electric shock of inspiration and love in the author's words, and I could actually feel my consciousness being lifted. His anecdotes seemed simple at first, but they are actually the most profound truths. Only someone who sees human experience from a high place could make such direct statements about the most elusive subjects. Singh's suggestions for contacting the soul and bringing its amazing powers to bear in my daily life with family and coworkers worked so well that I plan to continue using them. I recommend this book highly, and I have only one complaint: I wish I had found this book sooner!

This is the best book I have ever read on meditation. The author actually provides clear directions and technique that really works. Everyone, experienced and inexperienced meditators, will benefit from the author's sage advice. I wish I could buy everyone a copy.

If you want Meditation for Inner Progress, this is the simplest and best way to go. Mind is not easy to still but by Surat Shabd Yoga it can be done!

I didn't get too much out of this book, but perhaps that is because it just wasn't what I was looking for at this point. So I give it 4 stars instead of 3. It is simple, easy to understand, and enjoyable. I may read it again someday.
