This book seems to be about letting more of God's love and guidance flow into your life. According to the author, its a matter of recognizing these moments,- wake-up calls. The book encompasses dreams, deja vu, past lives, karma, death, grief, anger, health conditions, reincarnation. There is a very interesting passage on "Journey of Souls" by Dr. Michael Newton, and I found Mr Klemp's five points to help anyone master their spiritual destiny beneficial. The first three points are:forget the past, and learn from the spiritual lessons of today.look for a new way to solve a stubborn problem.whatever you undertake, do it to the best of your ability.I'll let you discover the remaining two points by reading the book. The author indicates that wake-up calls, ways in which God communicates with us daily can be through people we meet, animals, a song on the radio, or a suddenly remembered conversation, a billboard sign, and yes, dreams. So be alert! and start listening. I like this book.

I enjoyed reading this book which had references of ordinary people like ourselves experiencing God's interaction in their daily lives. Harold Klemp shows us how to recognize the voice of God and to listen to what It is saying to us. Often in this busy world we overlook the spiritual aspects of life and may not even know when we are blessed. Through the short stories of people as ourselves we see God is indeed alive and ready to assist us whenever we ask for his help. It is refreshing to find a book which makes God so available to us as individuals. As the words on the cover of the book ask: When God calls, are you listening? This book will help you to open your heart and ears to God.

When an individual looks for God-Realization, it has to be more than a passing fancy. It's not like a fashion that you only wear for a season; you don't just forget your high aspirations for God. It must be something that is within your heart in a gentle way. You know that no matter what happens on the path, it is always to lead you closer to the source of Soul's creation in the heart of God. Soul wants to return home. By becoming conscious creators of our lives, we can meet life's challenges in a more relaxed way. We know we have the spiritual resources to make the best decisions at any moment. Harol Klemp's writing is truly simple, powerful and subtle adding to the reader's experience a new reality from where to live from.

This is a great book for those searching for your inner truth, and gives you tools to help you open your heart!
I recommend it to anyone on their spiritual journey!

As a former higher initiate and long time member of Eckankar I have decided to give a new and true perspective of what is being conveyed in this book.

First, Klemp is not being truthful when he talks about "God." Eckankar believes that the "God" of all of the other world religions is a 2nd or 4th Plane God. The Mahanta (Klemp) resides on the 14th Plane of consciousness and is seen as the highest consciousness on Earth or any Plane! The name for the Divine in Eckankar is called SUGMAD.

Also, Klemp talks of spiritual freedom and complete surrender to the Master (Mahanta), but discourages Self-Mastery and Spiritual Freedom for Higher Initiates. There are many contradictions in the Eckankar teachings (a creation of Paul Twitchell) as the current Master Mahanta (Klemp) tries to have it both ways by saying one thing and promoting another.

Caution! Don't think with your heart when approaching this religious teaching. Most Eckists are nice and mean well, but they usually close their minds and even fear opposing views or different perspectives. This advice is for those who may contact a member of Eckankar. The bottom line is that Spiritual Seekers (Truth/God Seekers) or God-soul are equal to all other God-souls, and that there are no masters above other God-souls as Klemp would have us believe.
