Reviewed by: Catherine Kitcho
A wonderful blend of contemporary fiction and metaphysics. Tag along as our forty-something narrator, Bob Kramer, unexpectedly encounters a series of spiritual mentors and guides as he recovers from a divorce and loss of his job through downsizing. Bob's journey takes place in San Diego and Mexico, where he meets an expanding web of spirits ready to nudge him along his way on the Path of Return.
It's a little bit like "The Celestine Prophecy", except with colorful characters, a plot, and a large dose of humor. Whether you are a metaphysical scholar or know nothing about it, you will enjoy this tale of an ordinary guy discovering a world that is not so ordinary. Guided by Jamayah, Bob goes through a series of "orientations" to learn his spiritual (and other) lessons. He finds out what it's like to be a homeless person, he becomes an unwilling participant in a seance, he undergoes past life regression and soul retrieval, he goes into deep meditations and trances, and even plays a little golf with a spirit guide. Once you start this book, you won't be able to put it down, except occasionally to ponder some of the book's profound insights. Bravo!
