Publisher's Synopsis
THE FIVE STAGES OF THE SOUL is the first book to explore the spiritual passages we go through as we age-from midlife crisis to the search for inner perpose-and the rich possibilities they offer for ful-fillment in our life`s journey. The five stages are: 1 The Call-That little voice that tells us time is running out. 2 The search-The inner journey we embark on as we realise that family, job, life are not everything we had imagined or hoped. 3 The Struggle- Finding a new path of spiritual wholeness, we begin the sruggle to incorporate spiriruality into our lives. 4 The Breakthrough- The embrace of a new consciousness or spiritual direction bears fruit ina kind of spiritual rebirth. 5 The Return- Anxious to share our new knowlege, we reach out to others in a kind of spiritual generosity, a closing of the artical. `Thw gifts we can receive from people who have tasted spiritual pssibility are maps which we then use to guide our own journey. This is such a map. Enjoy! Ram Dass
