Heartfelt Compassionate and Informative,
This review is from: The Joy of Sacrifice: Secrets of the Sufi Way (Paperback)
I love this book. It is one of my favorites. The love pours through the pages. It is a life's work in just the first chapter. It is a long road and we walk alone. One foot in front and then the next. Moment by moment. All you have is Love. All you need is Love.

Stages on the Path,

This review is from: The Joy of Sacrifice: Secrets of the Sufi Way (Paperback)
The Joy of Sacrifice is an early work. Later, and some would say more important works, still used by Mr. Gold's students bear such titles as American Book of the Dead, Life in the Labyrinth, Visions in the Stone, The Hidden Work, and many others. Mr. Gold is one of those rare teachers with which this planet is graced from time to time. Those who find him are guided as adepts are reputed to be guided to The Great White Brotherhood. Joy of Sacrifice contains a brief exposition of the experiences of any person seriously working through any religious or spiritual tradition. These expositions are descriptions of things people experience and subsequently give up as they do their spiritual practice and tread their paths, not so much as a matter of suffering, though suffering is with all of us until the Ego is relinquished, but as a matter of having been there and gone through them. Sage advice about living as a spiritual seeker can be found in these pages and only serious path workers will welcome the wisdom found there. May your own path making be blessed.

From aztec altars to the sufi big mac syndrome,
By John C. Landon "nemonemini" (New York City) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Joy of Sacrifice: Secrets of the Sufi Way (Paperback)
I wasn't aware that 'sacrifice' was a sufi teaching, and Mr. Gold's Crowley routine should have told him 'sacrifice' is a phoney spirituality. But then Crowley sacrificed a frog. What's Mr. Gold's game here? The public has a right to know. Hohum,the 'work' of fleecing the multitude must go on. We need more information here. Sacrifice is the wilful of destruction of human beings, more sophisticated spiritual interpretations notwithstanding. How does this work out in practice with Mr. Gold's 'groupies'? We need a new kind of private eye to track the fate of the victimes here. These sufis are clever. You will never catch them on the ordinary police beat.
