Book Reviews of The Lazy Man's Guide to Enlightenment

Book Review: Very Well Written Book! 4.8 stars really.
Summary: 4 Stars

Read by translated version into Japanese. I am looking for an English version! One Thing missing is: The Sin of human being coming to realizing after knwoing the truth of the death of Jesus Christ and the realizing the peace brought by prayers. It does brings the whole truth in some cases, I belive. The Love of God through accepting the death of Jesus Christ does make us recoginze what "sinful" means. Other than that it is all true I believe that is in the book. Even the sexual "love" comes after realizing the love of God, as we come to know the meaning of "love", through our own experiences in the prayer, I believe, though it is a harder way.. It is such a warm-hearted book. Certainly the book written by a person who had experienced the holy spirit on him, I believe, whether through the prayer as I had experienced or not, I do not know. As he says many people or all of us are capable of becoming if we all allow us to. It is damn hard to follow to be perfect, and that is why the concept of the death of Jesus Chrsit is also so warm hearting to all human-beings. I think majority of us are all influenced by bible and the however we may try, the death of Jesus Christ along with the words of Jesus Christ has to be acknowledged, I believe. After all, we all are incomplete by ourselves however we try, but together, we all can make the wrold different. If we all know what love is, but each of us needs love by our fellow humanbeings, in our daily lives as a man and a woman or as a person or as a family. The core is a man and a woman as a man and a woman, if normal in the sense of biology, creates another human-being. Each person has to be brought up with love as much as we can provide in our capability. This books is preaching that love, importance of love. The love of God that is. The truth with love is also so warm hearted. I recommend this book to be read by as many people as possible, too.

Summary of The Lazy Man's Guide to Enlightenment

$10.95 cloth hardcover 1-58685-190-X 5 x 7 in, 112 pp, Rights: W, Self-Help Originally published by the author in 1972, the underground classic Lazy Man's Guide to Enlightenment teaches how to improve the quality of life, to feel good, and to determine what's real. Golas leads the reader down the path toward enlightenment with simple steps, like memorizing key phrases and incorporating them into daily life and thought. Think of how much better your life might be if you reminded yourself to "love as much as you can from wherever you are" or "love it the way it is." This classic book is full of useful tips on how to live a more conscious life and to be an engaged and aware member of the universal community. "While we have humility and pride enough to act on the knowledge that we exist in an infinite harmony, that we are neither greater nor lesser than any others, we can enjoy exquisite spiritual wealth and pleasures. When you love yourself, you are in truth expanding in love into many other things. And the more loving you are, the more loving the beings within and around you. On all levels we are mutually dependent vibrations. Play a happy tune and happy dancers will join your trip." - From The Lazy Man's Guide to Enlightenment After serving in World War II, author Thaddeus Golas graduated from Columbia College in New York. He later moved to San Francisco, where he became involved in the activism and spiritual quests of the 1960s. He was an editor of Redbook magazine and a book representative for publisher Harper and Row.
