Amazon.com
One night, after an unsatisfying evening at a party, author Oriah Mountain Dreamer wrote the start of The Invitation. By the light of her streetlight, she began, "It doesn't interest me what you do for a living. I want to know what you ache for, and if you dare to dream of meeting your heart's longing.... I want to know if you have touched the center of your own sorrow, if you have been opened by life's betrayals or have become shriveled and closed from fear of further pain...."
Her profound invitation (longer than is written here) became the framework for this wise and inspiring book. Chapter by chapter, the author uses passages from her "Invitation" to welcome readers into a life that is more soul fulfilling and passionate, and has far greater truth and integrity. In a sense, she invites readers to get a life instead of buying into a lifestyle. Each chapter ends with a guided meditation specific to the theme of the chapter, such as "The Joy" and "The Failure."
Despite her suspiciously New Age-sounding name, Oriah Mountain Dreamer is a highly grounded, practical, and honest writer. This fresh and beautifully packaged book is destined for great acclaim in the realm of spiritual inspiration. --Gail Hudson -- Dieser Text bezieht sich auf eine andere Ausgabe: Gebundene Ausgabe .

Format:Gebundene Ausgabe
This book is absolutely transformational. I have read many books regarding the search for self, but never have had the pleasure of an author describing exactly how I was feeling. The book's inescapable flow and pros, rendered me unable to put it down until complete. This very well written book has been added to my special library, and will be read till the pages fall out of it's hardback cover. Thank you, Oriah Mountian Dreamer, for the chance to be TRUELY transformed.

I plunged into reading this book, because "The Inviation" touched me and because poems have as many interpretations as they have readers. The book explains very well the deeper meaning of "The Invitation", as Oriah Mountain dreamer wants us to understand it. What I was missing that she kind of took me by her hand and showed me her life more. The book falls short in this aspect. The impact of "The Invition" could be much greater, nonetheless in combination with other books it still has it's value and is certainly worth the money. It left me to want "more", though.
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe
The author begins with a poem, followed by a chapter dedicated to illuminating various ideas. She is honest and, unlike most "new age" books, she does not try to guide her readers into a state of continual bliss and peace. As other readers have mentioned, she gets annoyed (and then laughs at herself) when her teenage son leaves wet towels on the bathroom floor. I found her book a refreshing 'wake up call'. We are here to feel everything that a human being can feel -- and, in each moment, we find an incredible sense of aliveness and well-being. I also found the exercises at the end of each chapter very powerful.
Another book that speaks the truth and is an incredible gift if you are searching for life "in the moment" is Ariel & Shya Kane's Working on Yourself Doesn't Work. This graceful and deeply profound book contains an enlightened view of life. The Kanes reveal their revolutionary principles -- just three -- which are truly life-changing. The Kanes also share experiences from their life together that are moving and express eye-opening truths. Their insights are deeper and more profound than any I've ever experienced. If you want to see magic happen in your life and experience a deep sense of well-being -- read this wonderful book.
I'd like to thank the authors of both these books. It's wonderful to read words and feel the truth in them resonate. Thank you all for sharing your lives and insights with us.
