CULLIFORD, LARRY
The Big Book of Wisdom What Is It? Why Do We Need It? and How to Get It?
London: Hero, 2020. Paperback. ISBN: 1789551218. 7.7 X 5.1 X 0.5 inches; 166 pages; Soft cover has grey spine with white lettering. NEW. 'Already endorsed as, 'Beautifully written', 'A gem of a book', and, 'Urgently important', Seeking Wisdom is described by Anthony Seldon as a unifying text with the uplifting core message that, 'We are all already one'. Part 1, examines the human predicament in terms of both intellectual under-standing and deeply personal yet universal spiritual experiences. Part 2, offers sharp commentary on important areas of public concern - politics, leadership, religion, education, health and social care, capitalism and art - noting especially a correctable imbalance between 'worldly' aims and 'spiritual' values. Part 3, offers a constructive way forward, adopting personal Spiritual Development Plans to reduce the destructive power of the false 'everyday ego' while increasing the highly beneficial influence of the true 'spiritual self'. 2 appendices. Not only will your life be improved, but so also will the lives of the many people you encounter. This brilliant, book cannot be recommended more highly.'. New .
