The Seat of the Soul

Summary: A review of the reviews
Review: Interesting that my fellow readers/reviewers have such diverse reactions to the book - love it or hate it I suppose. Yes these are all recycled ideas, but written fairly clearly and without a lot of the cultural baggage and mumbo-jumbo that you would encounter should you try to ferret the same knowledge from the original writings of the Upanishads, the Gita, the Bible or whatever. I liked the book and how it reiterates things that I knew that I knew but had forgotten that I knew them or forgotten that it was important to apply them in my life. You may well be put off by Zukavs authoritative delivery without him attributing where he gets his knowledge. I think the Pharisees had the same problem with a guy called Jesus. But if you encounter useful advice, you should use it. This book has some useful advice and is exactly what some people will need to hear at this point of their lives. I find it rather densely packed with insight but at the same time don't feel a need to make Gary my guru either.
