Rating:  Summary: Soul Stories Review: By Gary Zukav, who gave the layman physics ("Dancing Wu Li Masters")... did it again, only this time he is giving laymen something way, way larger, and far more precious.His clarity and gift for transforming complicated concepts into simple terms - is really a gift TO his reader - A light easy book to read; delightful, insightful, deep, and inspiring.
Rating:  Summary: Show me the money...I mean your soul. Review: After reading this book I felt pretty good about myself and my life. But there was this nagging feeling that I had been scammed. I could'nt help but wonder if Zukav really believes what he is writing about or whether he has hit a goldmine with this topic due to his association with Oprah? We'll see by how long he milks it. Zukaz went 20 years or so between his first and second books. If his output starts to rival Marvel Comics I quess we know who really has "soul". My vote is for James Brown.
Rating:  Summary: Soul Stories Review: An amazing, easy-to-understand gift to its readers as this follow-up of The Seat of the Soul shares important information about spiritual consciousness while in the Earth school. The messages in Soul Stories are literally the answers to many questions, prayers and thoughts directed to the Universe, as well as our Selves. You will open this book and will not want to put it down. Incredible! Inciteful! A guidebook to use on your journey...Have fun!
Rating:  Summary: Holy Literature! Review: Mr. Zukav's latest work is a masterpiece. Each soul-opening story confirmed for me a truth that in the past few years I have been struggling to articulate. SEAT OF THE SOUL, Zukav's first book, was an architectural blueprint - this book is the interior design! Also recommended, PSYCHIC LIVING, by Andrei Ridgeway, another piece of holy literature..
Rating:  Summary: The journey is the essence Review: Do cave divers push ever deeper in a search for the truth? Do dolphins dive bottomward to find the light? Or is life nothing more than highly structured ectoplasm, waiting to expire? These are questions no one can answer for you but Zukav, a prankster-mythic of the highest order, is a top flight guide who will show you the way to the summit if you give him the time and patience that Soul Stories deserves. As I read Soul Stories I thought often of a solitary tree, a tree that had once belonged to a vast, glorious forest but now stood alone. Trees can come and go often cut down by the demands of daily life, but a forest, like our spiritual essence, can only exist if we nurture it and let it's beauty strenghten us. Read this book and save a tree: the tree that is growing within you. It may one day turn into a forest and bring with it the happiness and joy that life is supposed to be.
Rating:  Summary: Soul -- Terrific Review: Every once in a while a book comes along that really changes me. Seat of the Soul was one. I was eager to see if this follow up would continue to make a difference in my life. This book did make me look deep into my soul and ponder if I am living life the way I am meant to be. The jury is still out on whether it will be a lasting change, but I was so hyped about what I read that I had to write and share. Why read a good book and keep it to myself? The Romantic's Guide by Michael Webb and Heartwarmers by Azriela Jaffe are also fantastic books that will inspire and change you.
Rating:  Summary: Over My Head Review: I was so looking forward to reading this book. Having seen Gary Zukav on the Oprah show and listening to his concepts, I couldn't wait to read it. What a disappointment! From the first page I was lost. I didn't have a clue what he was talking about. This book could have been written so people could better understand it. I tried and tried to follow what he was saying, to no avail. I consider myself a reasonably intelligent person and was frustrated with my inability to absorb what Zukav was trying to say.
Rating:  Summary: Books Can Be Catalysts Review: It's that time of the year when I tend to look at the last year and think about what I'd like in the New Year. I picked up a copy of Gary Zukav's "SOUL STORIES" and I'm well on my way. It's a light collection of stories and thoughts about living your life from your heart. Zukav talks about the "Old Male" (old-fashioned and traditional) and the "New Male" (uses his intuition and recognizes a new order to things) -- I saw pieces of myself in both of these! I particularly enjoyed the chapter in which Zukav meets Oprah Winfrey -- it's a beautiful demonstration of how easily cooperation happens and how you never know all the ways in which your dreams and goals will be expressed. In my wanderings through book reviews, I came upon another excellent book that supports people in living from their truth -- "WORKING ON YOURSELF DOESN'T WORK" by best-selling authors Ariel and Shya Kane. A real catalyst to help light your fire. If you're looking to use the New Year as an opportunity to step more fully into your life, I highly recommend Zukav's and the Kanes' book.
