The Joys of Live Alchemy [Paperback]

Michael Levy (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: June 1, 2005

In a series of essays and short stories, you will discover alternatives to the way you now perhaps perceive your world to be. Each essay highlights the cause of … depressive worry, debilitating anxiety, wealth deficiency, illness manifestation, emotional negativity and intellectual despondency.

Do not rush through each essay without taking the time to go over it a few times. You will find more meaning and different analysis each time you read each individual piece. Dissolving past negative memories takes time and patience. In uncovering your conditioned mind's views of life with all its assumptions, opinions, convictions, presumption and beliefs you will be able to determine if the choices you now retain are allowing you true freedom of alchemical thought.

Life can seem like an enigma of paradoxes if education and intellect are the only tools used to find the way through the mortal maze of modern day living. Humanity may try to make the truth fit into its variety of lifestyles. They can bend it, twist it ... misuse, and abuse it...but even God cannot change truth.

The identity you carry could be the cause of much sorrow and grief if you are not aware of the damage it can do to your health and wealth. A live alchemist can change negative situations into enlightening experiences… misrepresentations into facts….slants into equilibrium….intellectual blindness into intelligent wisdom. With the aid of live alchemy, every person can live a more genuine life on earth once the realization of the true self becomes a reality

Editorial Reviews

Review

Investigating journalism meets inspirational expressions as Levy explores education, finance, media, mythology, religion, science, philosophy and ancient traditions. The difference between Intellect and Intelligence is explored and conveys a message not to be missed if the human race is to survive the future

To have hope there needs to be belief, to hold belief there needs to be doubt, to have no doubt of the truth there is no need for hope or belief.

From the Publisher

From America's earliest moments, people have sought truth, honestly, virtue and grace that is inherent in all human beings, yet it seems to elude many most of the time. People grow frustrated that they wasted moments of happiness that other people seem to be living. However, the people that seem to be happy are also frustrated because they are not as successful as someone else they admire ... on and on it goes ad-infinitum.

Point of Life philosophy can deliver answers to searching questions that can solve many problems that get under the skin. Authentic meaning cannot expire it can only be concealed. The teachings of Michael Levy explore the simple undeniable truths of life that have existed since humans first set foot on earth, yet have been cleverly hidden by clever minds.
