5.0 out of 5 stars THIS BOOK IS THE ANSWER!, February 8, 2005

By 

Kim Gordon (Venice.) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   

This review is from: You Are the Answer: An Extraordinary Guide to Entering the Sacred Dance with Life and Fulfilling Your Soul Purpose (Paperback)

This book is like watching a movie that has you so engrossed you don't want it to end. If that sounds cliché, you won't think so after you've had it in your itchy palms, awake late at night, not able to move you're so in awe of what you are reading.

For what it's worth, James Van Praagh had a private session with the author years ago and was genuinely in awe. James wrote the forward for "You are the Answer". In it he talks about how this book reminded him of his own `inkling of purpose'.

This delicately touches what this book is about. The idea is that in quieting our minds with the help of meditative exercises we can create the space for our spiritual seeds to grow into our true divine selves. We pick up charges from many sources: acquaintances, family, thoughts, and perceptions. Because we are energy ourselves we become sponges for all of this making it impossible to decipher what is truly ours and what is .. everything else. From "Validating Spirit", "Resistance to Willingness", "Growing Neutrality", and into "Choosing Truth at Every Crossroads" you'll find chapters that are full of wisdom and intense teachings that allow you to find your voice and accept yourself with compassionate honesty so that you can begin to understand your purpose here in this lifetime.

Michael Tamura's words are revolutionarily loving and add up to some of the FULLEST sentences you've ever read - you cannot read this book once. In fact, the amount of time you go back to reread a paragraph or sentence will amount to your reading this book a dozen times hoping that the words would come alive and put their healing hands upon you. And that's before you read it all over again because you miss it so much.

I recommend this book to all of the people who ever wanted to feel the lightness of divinity in their everyday life. To remind themselves of love so eternal and so huge and so familiar that being without it is what's missing. This book was like going to the doctor for me. The Soul Doctor.

5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent book to help you look inside for the answers., May 1, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: You Are the Answer: An Extraordinary Guide to Entering the Sacred Dance with Life and Fulfilling Your Soul Purpose (Paperback)

Michael Tamura is clearly a very gifted psychic and an extremely spiritual individual. As a writer, he has a very straight-forward, down-to-earth style of writing that makes reading his work a pleasure. His purpose in this book is to help those of us on the spiritual path... whatever that may be... to look inside ourselves, rather than outward, for the answers that we seek. The emphasis is that we are always connected to our spiritual/higher self, and he offers practical ways to ask the right questions in order to discover our soul's purpose here. You Are The Answer is NOT a "how to develop you psychic abilities" book, but rather a book for us common-folks seeking to deepen our intuition and spirituality. (This is not to say that this book could not help in that area, as I think that it might.) This book is one I'm planning on reading a second time, just because it is so deep and informative. For those of you who are familiar with The Power of Now and A Course In Miracles, you'll understand what I mean when I say that this is the new "essential read" for becoming a more spiritual person.

5.0 out of 5 stars A true crown jewel!, May 24, 2004

By A Customer

This review is from: You Are the Answer: An Extraordinary Guide to Entering the Sacred Dance with Life and Fulfilling Your Soul Purpose (Paperback)

After many years of conscious spiritual growth, including BPI clairvoyance development, reading books and studying a wide variety of topics from a myraid of religious and biblical texts, biblical archeology, anthroposophy and rosicrucian texts, spiritual women's wellness to UFO's, sacred geometry and much, much more, if I had to pick only 1 book to keep, this book would be the one I would chose.

I agree with an earlier review that this is the new spiritual "must read" and not a how to be psychic book. Michael has succeeded in communicating the essential truth of going within to find your very own and unique connection to God in such a simplistic way that every part of your being, from physical, emotional, mental and spiritual will get something from it!!

This is truly soul food that helps to answer the big questions about how to find and know God, why you should want to find God, and much, much more. His writing style is filled with amusement and grace, and I enjoy his storytelling and gentle way to get you to look within; so the reading experience is very pleasant.

So the why I would chose to keep this book if I only got to pick one, is simple: Michael has achieved that which I know I personally stirve to, he is a living example of simple, elegant truth...following in the footsteps of a couple of other very well known teachers who walked the planet a couple of millenium or more ago who spread the word of neutrality..that place of being in the world and not of it, by having increased spiritual awareness of who we are. And some days we need a little more reminder than others, so it's wonderful to have a book to pick up and read and change the conditions we find ourselves in.
