Early on the path of spirituality, I stumbled upon this book at the library. A few weeks later, I was feeling miserable. Nothing my fellows recommended to lift my mood helped. The hopelessness was overwhelming. During a weekend locked in my self-imposed cell, I opened this book. Somehow, it pulled me through. To me, it is spiritual, but not religious. It talks about what we are seeking, how to do it, and problems we face along the way. There are about 2 quotes per page. I returned the book but one stuck with me I'll paraphrase. "Until you have great control of tthe mind do not focus on it. Dwell on God."
