5.0 out of 5 stars love, love, love although it is very difficult, April 25, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Light Upon Light: Inspirations from Rumi (Hardcover)

I was amazed how Rumi loved God. His example and perseverance is worth emulating in the now fast-faced world. This work is a must for every student of the truth. If a reader will read between the lines, he will realized the synthesis of things.

1.0 out of 5 stars Now How Much Would You Pay?!, July 16, 2007

By	Martin (Nashville) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Light Upon Light (Paperback)

At first glance I thought Andrew Harvey was great and I rushed out and bought a bunch of his books -- bad move, yes I know. But how do I explain the problem? Anything I say, you could simply rhetorically write off. What if I let Andrew Harvey do it for me!

This from his website:

"Spiritual direction

Andrew is booking appointments for spiritual direction - via the phone only
­ in 50 minute sessions.

'For me as a believer in the direct connection to the divine, spiritual
counseling is about helping people to empower themselves and claim their own
truth and divine identity. I am not a guru. I share what I know as a fellow
seeker and spiritual friend. Ideally people would sign up for not less than
3 sessions, and no more than 10.'

After booking a session, we need to receive payment prior to the phone call.
You will need to call Andrew, we will give you the number once we confirm
the appointment. We require 24 hours notice of any cancellation to receive a
refund.

Please note: Consultations are not a substitute for legal, medical, or
psychological advise. Please consult a licensed professional in these
matters."
