The Way Is Within: A Spiritual Journey [Paperback]

Ron Rathburn (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: January 1, 1997

When Ron Rathbun was nineteen years old, troubled by feelings of emptiness and loneliness, he asked what many of us ask from time to time: "Is this all there is?" A short time later he had what could be called a waking dream: he saw three men, dressed in robes, standing before him - inviting him to quiet his mind and follow them to a place where he could find the answers he sought. In the years since then, he has quietly pursued this strange yet compelling vision, and in this book he finally shares the lessons he has learned: lessons that changed his life profoundly and dramatically - and can change your life as well.

5.0 out of 5 stars Simply Beautiful, August 26, 2000

This review is from: The Way Is Within: A Spiritual Journey (Paperback)

This is the least pretentious spiritual book I have encountered. Ron presents simple truths in a touching, sensitive manner that lays the responsibility on the reader. We have the power to find happiness and peace, now. Only when we slow our busy lives enough to stop and see these simple truths will we really experience our lives. We can all do it, single parent or hilltop guru. It just has to become a priority. Someone recently told me that personal time is all we have, and Ron Rathbun's books reinforce that. When you're ready to experience your life, let Ron be your guide.

5.0 out of 5 stars amazing spiritual resource, anyone would benefit from it..., May 12, 2007

This review is from: The Way Is Within: A Spiritual Journey (Paperback)

The Way is Within is the richest spiritual guide I have found----with one exception, Ron Rathbun's more recent book, The Kelee. Ron was featured in Oprah's magazine, but I think he's destined to become even better known. I also like his other book: The Silent Miracle. These three books are, in my opinion, the best spiritual resource out there right now. Ron knows how to help people really open their hearts and their spirit. It's a quick form of meditation: only 6 minutes in the morning and at night. I have a busy life, so that got me started, but this meditation practice has led to spiritual growth I couldn't have even imagined when I began.

This review is from: The Way Is Within: A Spiritual Journey (Paperback)

It is possible to feel the caring, love and compassion that has gone in to the pages of this book. The simplicity of its layout makes the depth of content so easy to read and understand. Having read it cover to cover, from time to time I open it up on any page and it never fails to touch my heart.
