Infinity in Your Hand: A Guide for the Spiritually Curious [Paperback]

William H. Houff (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: July 1, 2001

Spiritual growth is an intensely personal undertaking. While we can learn from the journeys of others, it is only through taking out our own beliefs, understanding them, and sharing them that we reveal to our true self. William Houff reveals that by expanding his humanism, he discovered that those who listen to their inner wisdom come to a new and expansive appreciation of that Old Testament command, "Be still and know I am God."

An absorbing survey of spiritual matters and approaches covering everything from the paranormal through meditation and beyond, written with verve and humor. The kind of book you'll go back to again and again, and end giving it as a gift to a special person. Wonderful.

This review is from: Infinity in Your Hand: A Guide for the Spiritually Curious (Paperback)

Of the dozens of books on religion and spirituality I've read over the years, this book continues to be one that I consistently recommend to others who are seeking their path or are curious to know about other paths (without wanting to get bogged in dogma or volumous know-it-all "expertise"). As the other reviewers say, you will find yourself coming back to this book again and again. Written in a simple and non-threatening way, Houff makes it easy for "the spiritually curious" to examine aspects of many religious and spiritual paths. Highly recommended! Also, consider "The Power of Myth" as another book of spiritual and religious education.

Bill Houff is a deeply spiritual man who instantly communicates with you in person or through his book. But more important than the man himself is the depth of feelings and ideas he projects through this book.

I think you will read it all the way through, the first time. Then you will read portions of it over and over again when you need a pilot through the foggy straights of life.

I met Bill fifteen years ago, bought the book two years later and recommended it to friends and family since then. And... I am writing this review fifteen years later. Is that not a testimonial to the power of this book?
