Once Upon a Parable a Journey into Life [Paperback]

Steven L. Hairfield (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: December 1, 2001

Metaphysical Insight and Biblical Understanding. Spiritual Enlightenment. "What if God heard everything you thought and considered it a request for It to do something for you? Would you change the way that you think?" This text is filled with valuable, researched information, principles and tested techniques, all aimed at spiritual growth. It has been written in the style of a Zen Kuan - or one very large parable - and it is designed for spiritual teachings, comprehension and attainment. It attempts to portray the Bible as a tool for such growth, by lessening its religious impact and introducing a new perspective through a metaphysical interpretation. It is merely giving a different light on the subject of the Bible, because of the Master's wish for our spiritual growth. The format is one of self-help, wherein readers have the opportunity to recognize themselves as they are. They are reminded of life as we know it. They are offered advice on breaking the cycles that inexorably occur, on the purpose of relationships and what they may give us. Events that fill their lives are explained, especially those with negative impacts. Most importantly, this book offers them a path that will bring them peace of mind and a better life. - www.hairfield.com www.innercirclepublishing.com

I have begun reading this work and even thou I am two days into the book which puts me at chapter 4, I have had to read it, meditate on what was being taught, and digest it as if it were a divine meal. This is the only way in which I can extract most of the teaching and understanding from this work, I know that I will read it again and again until I have pulled the very marrow out of this source of spiritual sustanance.

I deleted this book from my Wish List because I already ordered the book as I have no intention to have it in my wish list for long. I can no longer wait, and looking forward to read this book, it is the very first book of this awesome spiritual teacher Dr. Steven Hairfield.
