The Call
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
I buy audio books because I drive 20 hrs a week. I was listening to the sections were she talks about the word each of us came to earth to work on. I ran through 3-4 words, but non of them seemed right. All of a sudden "I am worthy" popped into my head. I was sitting at a stop light & glanced at the license tag on the car in front of me, and it read "U R WORTHY". I might have second guesses myself before this message, but not now. Just what I needed! I recommend this book for anyone searching for an answer to why we are here.

Careers, stimulation, hobbies, and societal pressures are masks to out true callings. With her eloquent pen and angelic usage of words ... Oriah offers readers a lyrical remedy and recipe to begin/continue the journey towards living in alignment with our true calling.
The Call: Discovering Why You Are Here

Stunned by two negative reviews, I feel compelled to add my thoughts about this book--a book which I have heavily highligthted and found to be thoroughly honest. The author deals with the not-so-easy aspects of the spiritual journey with a direct 21st century awareness, using her own life as example. Anyone on a genuine spiritual journey of their own will understand what she means when she writes: "Create a gap in your story and sit within the gap, sit in the emptiness of not knowing who or what you are until an awareness of your essential nature fills you." This is one more book to add to my library of hundreds of volumes of spiritual literature, many of which I gathered while in seminary working towards a master's degree in Spritual Direction. Along with The Cloud of Unknowing, works by the Desert Fathers, Teresa of Avila, Julian of Norwich, Evelyn Underhill, Joseph Campbell and others I add Oriah Mountain Dreamer for speaking bravely to our time and, more specifically, to my life.
A Spiritual Workbook
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 21 years ago
Even more than its two excellent predecessors ("The Invitation" and "The Dance") the third book of Oriah's trilogy is a handbook on how to live. While influences of both the Sufis and Lao-Tze (Taoist) are present, the voice is clearly unique and powerfully original. Grounding her teachings in stories from her life, Oriah marshalls a persuasive argument that the core issue in our lives and our relation to Spirit is not that we need to do more, but that we need to accept who we are. The meditations offer clear and practical steps towards accomplishing that.This is a practical book, that can be enjoyed whatever the reader's religious views are. Highly recommended!
