Summary: Easy Doses Of Truth
Review: A person I have a great deal of respect for once said to me,
"The Truth can be told in two minutes or less". I've enjoyed this guideline for the last 20 years of my life as a way to cut to the chase and get to the point of any issue quickly and effectively. Jacob's book is a series of bottom line truths, each told in two minutes or less. The truths are spoon fed in easy doses with warmth and charm as the condiments. This is the kind of book you can leave by your bedside and pick up as the spirit moves you to open any random page and have it benefit your day or your dreams. That's what I do.

Summary: A Must-Read Packed with Spiritual Insight
Review: As a writer of spiritual-based material myself, I am familiar with the difficulty of presenting this kind of information in a way that is insightful, truthful, clear, easy to understand, and practical to the experience of the reader. Jacob Liberman has accomplished this in his book, Wisdom from an Empty Mind. Like a treasure chest filled with precious currency, gold and gems, his book is filled with concise stories that convey the richness of the spiritual principles he is sharing. For myself, I learned the value of living in the present because I discovered it was a 'gifted' moment in my life. Put another way, when a person directs his or her conscious attention into the future, or ties it to past events, happiness is lost. In other words, it is impossible to experience emotional unhappiness when the mind and heart are focused in the now for that is, indeed, the only instant a person has any control over anyway. Jacob Lieberman, and his son, Erik, show how the reader can become spiritually centered and carry this awareness with him or herself through daily life. This is a task that is not easy in a world that appears ever more distracting and complex. Therefore, it is of immense value because it teaches the reader, in a highly engaging and entertaining manner, how to be in touch with the divinity within each one of us. In addition, the book can be read cover-to-cover or may simply be opened at random. I particularly like this second approach. However, regardless of the page, the beauty of the words and ideas is alive with meaning. I have already purchased several copies for family and friends and recommend this book most highly to anyone who reads it. It has already made perfect birthday and holiday gifts. (I only wish I had written it myself!) But, in any case, I feel I am a better person for reading it. I know that it will be equally beneficial to you and your loved ones this holiday season--and all the year through--because it is a gift that keeps on giving.

Summary: mind blown OPEN!
Review: i've only read half of this book (and i bought it only hours ago) and it's already amazed me to a degree where it goes beyond words.i'm very difficult to impress when we're talking about books,and specifically metaphysical and/or spiritual books,as i've been reading them for years.some of this stuff i know already...but i can hardly believe there are actually some new ideas in here for me...i think i'm going to be buying more copies of this book for people i find to be receptive to this sort of thing.to get an idea of what kind of company this book will be keeping...some other favorites of of mine are thaddeus golas -the lazy man's guide to enlightenment-,the conversations with god series by neale donald walsch,and anthony de mello's -awareness-.astounding.

Summary: Wisdom From An Empty Mind
Review: In a world that has become increasingly technical, Jacob Liberman has written
a book that brings home the fact that in order to live a happy and spiritual
life, the answers are very simple. Dr. Liberman explains that living does
not have to be a struggle. He shows how to listen to your heart -- the place
where all your true answers are -- and to realize that we already are what we
strive to be... we simply have to remember who we really are. This book is not weighed down by excess. The writing is to the point and
feels conversational, like sitting in front of the fire with an old friend.
I refer to this book often, and will continue to do so. It has become one of
my favorite gifts to give. If you're looking for inspiration that doesn't make you feel that your
spiritual goal is "way out there" -- that in fact, you are already there --
Wisdom From An Empty Mind is the book for you.

Summary: Peace
Review: Jacob Liberman, I must express that the sensual, effortless, inert, healing power your words posess are a beautiful testimonial to the Life and spirit of pure humanity. Inside this breathing book, I am drawn into the knowing instinctualism that has most recently been uncovered, though always present. I identify and relish in the "Light" of "Eye". Erik, I can feel you accutely across the pages as I blossom and brighten while reading every word. The clarity and integrity that your father and you have shared so completely with me, and with all others, is honest, is spirit-ful, is clairvoyant. And perhaps most importantly, is essential.
I know that in my heart I continue to embellish and revel in each new day, in every present moment, and in the Light that I shine, and therefore thank you deeply for this work of art.
my Love, Erik... and your wonderful father Jacob, I commend you

Summary: Refreshing
Review: This is a beautiful book. The message is clear, the words are straightforward, and the writing simply beautiful. It is refreshing to find a book of this genre that talks "with" you, not "to" you. I love it. I think everyone should own a copy.
