About the Author

The late SYDNEY BANKS (1931 - 2009) was a well-known author, philosopher and lecturer. He was born in Scotland but spent most of his adult life in Canada's Gulf Islands. In 1973, Banks came to a profound understanding about the Mind and human consciousness and subsequently developed an approach to this understanding which he called The Three Principles of Mind, Consciousness and Thought. The effect of Banks' revelation was immediate and significant. A growing community of psychologists, educators, doctors and lay people read Banks' books, attended his lectures at universities and health clinics around North America, and began to build therapeutic programs based on the Three Principles. Today a variety of successful programs for resilience training and personal development have evolved from Banks' original work. Banks passed away at his Salt Spring Island home in spring 2009.

5.0 out of 5 stars This gem of a book reaches all people ., May 12, 1999
By A Customer
The reviews of this book on this website moved me to tears. It would be hard to add anything. What has touched me is to see patients in mental institutions and jails gain hope and self-respect as they carry this book around in settings that might seem to have the power to destroy the human spirit. This book represents for me the "misssing link"between spirituality and practical day-to-day living . As deep as this book is, everybody seem to be touched by it in a very direct, meaningful way.

5.0 out of 5 stars A concise distillation of the spiritual wisdom of the ages, March 1, 1999
By A Customer
This author had an authentic, direct, transcendent experience of the spiritual essence of life, In this spellbinding book, he has brought together the wisdom of all great sages, msytics and philosophers. He has articulated the underlying truths that are always behind our spiritual and psychological experience of life. He has both lived and taught this understanding for over a quarter of a century. His talks, tapes and books have healed literally hundreds of thousands of people who were suffering chronic distress by reconnecting them with their essential spiritual nature. Anyone reading this book and catching even a glimpse of the truth being shared is sure to find deeper levels of their own inner wisdom, happiness and peace of mind, This book is the most accurate and helpful book I have ever read about the essence of life and what life really is as a spiritual journey. It cuts out the ritual, opinion and dogma and all other "middlemen" and gets right to the essence of what every enlightened sprititual teacher througout history was trying to express to humanity about who we really are and what life really is. I have read it over and over and it always brings new understanding, insight and deeper feelings of love, gratitude and beauty into my life. And I know this is just the tip of the iceburg. I will be forever grateful that the deep understanding expressed in this book has come into my life and work, and that this profound wisdom has already helped so many across diverse cultures and communities gain access to their own beauty and the true depth of their potential . Roger C. Mills, Ph.D.

5.0 out of 5 stars If I could only own one book, this would be my choice., April 5, 1999

Imagine how much easier life would be if it came with a manual. The wait is over. When you read this book there is a quickening that resonates within you. You will recognize that crystalline ring of truth.
