Songbird in My Heart

This book is a call to action, a song of grace, whispering softly to anyone listening for the call of inner knowing. For many, the call is so quiet it is perceived as a vague yearning for something more in life. This is the call of the songbird in your heart. This book has a simple intention; to help the reader recognise the simple magnificence of being and point toward the purpose of life. The story is intended to be read on a lazy, contemplative afternoon. It is inspired by the work of Dainin Katagiri, H W L Poonja, Don Miguel Ruiz, Eckhart Tolle and Marianne Williamson. The story is told within the simple, yet beautiful context of everyday life. While no religious and spiritual traditions are promoted, they are all encouraged and respected. It is the author s sincere hope that the readers accept his challenge to take charge of their spiritual life and find their true nature. The book is in two parts. The first is "The Magnificence of Being, A Simple Message of Grace" -- the story of a journey of self-discovery. The second is "Acts of Contemplation, Freedom for a Glad Heart" -- a series of exercises designed to demonstrate the principles of Part I through the reader's own efforts. Illustrated in full-colour to enhance the reading experience.
