5.0 out of 5 stars Disestablishmentarian, January 23, 2004

By 

Charles (Arizona) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Spiritual Polyamory (Paperback)

To be a disestablishmentarian means to me, that you challenge the way the world is presented. To say that there is another reality that exists other than the cultural norm. Mystic Life (ML) is a personal friend of mine, and I can honestly say that he lives his life in this manner. His book Spiritual Polyamory is a reflection of this life pattern. ML calls into question the norm of single monogamous relationships, bringing into perspective the idea of love of self, and love of others as a key aspect of human relationships. This book is a treatise on how loving onself leads to a more comfortable love with and for others. That this love may not be bound within the normally accepted confines of a monogamous relationship is going to be challenging for the rigid, moralistic, and unaccepting. It intuitively makes sense, however the task is having the courage to make the change in one's life despite the risk of being ostracized. Spiritual Polyamory makes sense, and is a great way to see one's life from another view, a view that could truly lead you to happiness and fulfillment.

5.0 out of 5 stars The most important book, August 2, 2004

This review is from: Spiritual Polyamory (Paperback)

This book clearly, succinctly, and powerfully provides a positive, life-affirming alternative to live more fully, spiritually, and authentically - at least for most. Its clear from the writing that we have been programmed to believe in only one way to express love and our authentic selves. This book provides the truth that there is another way, another paradigm in which we may find more joy, more health, more love. I appreciate the author's way of nonjudgmentally inviting the reader to consider a more expanding viewpoint, a perspective of unlimited love and joy.

5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant!, February 10, 2004

This review is from: Spiritual Polyamory (Paperback)

This is absolute brilliance. Where has this author been? I'm already angry at him/her for not coming out with the next work of art yet.

I was strongly encouraged by a friend and mentor to read this book. Initially, I experienced resistance as I noticed Life's paradigms potentially clashing with my previous belief systems. Then the brilliance: not only does Life articulate refreshing perspectives that remind me of what I wish I could articlute, but he does so in a way that is simultaneoulsy bold and non-threatening. Brilliant!

"The governments of nations are impersonal entities that arise out of the illusion of separation between the people of the world." Quite possibly the most powerful written sentence I have ever encountered. This book left me with a sense of expansiveness and peacefulness. It's left me thinking. It's left me challenging my own thoughts and beliefs. That's huge. Well done, Life. What's next?
