Quote: "You desire happiness, harmony and balance in your life.
So, what’s the problem? Why aren’t you satisfied with the life you live? The trouble is that
you are taught to search for something to make you whole. But, honestly, ask yourself
how, and more importantly, why should you search for completeness. You are the totality
of your being in this moment. So, in actuality, everything is already within you."
It amazes me that this kind of thing still finds a market. If it's what somebody wants to hear, who could that somebody be? Most of us long ago discovered the simple and sensible solution to the Problem of New Age Gibberish:
1. You don't need to listen politely. All the social acceptance the speaker needs is already within him. Feel free to change the subject or walk away whenever the platitude count in the atmosphere gets too high for your personal tolerance.
2. Never give money to the people who spout this kind of platitudes. All the money they need is already within them.
3. If troubled by lingering memories of these platitudes, read the Bible aloud until they go away.
I would like to be at least slightly polite to the e-friend who shared this e-book with me, so I'll say that the cut-out landscape pictures are very nice to look at. The illustrator of this book should have no difficulty finding better books to illustrate.
