it was ok

A nice reminder of some core spiritual concepts. Don't agree with everything, and funnily enough I read "A House in the Sky" immediately following this book which demonstrated the danger of this type of "now" thinking (a biography of a freelance journalist powered by "power of now" who went to increasingly dangerous countries and ignored advice in favor of her "now" thinking, leading to her being kidnapped and raped for 460 days by Somalian terrorists). I think this book is good for dealing with stress, though needs to be balanced with some logic for its messages to be useful.
