Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Shared by word of mouth, e-mailed from reader to reader, recited over the radio, and read aloud at thousands of retreats and conferences, "The Invitation" has changed the lives of people everywhere. In this bestselling book, Oriah expands on the wisdom found within her beloved prose poem, which presents a powerful challenge to all who long to live an authentic life.

In a world of endless small talk, constant traffic jams, and overburdened schedules, "The Invitation" opens the door to a new way of life — a way of intimacy, honesty, and peace with ourselves, others, and the world around us. Oriah invites us to embrace the varieties of human experience, from desire and commitment to sorrow and betrayal, and to open ourselves to all that is possible. The Invitation is an invaluable guide to overcoming the obstacles that stand in our way and to discovering the true beauty that life has to offer.

Accept the invitation and open yourself to a more meaningful life.

Synopsis:

Unique, practical, and often surprising, this is an invaluable guide to living the ecstasy of everyday life, recognizing true beauty in oneself and the world, and finding the sustenance everyone longs for.

As many others, I read The Invitation from mouth-to-ear _well, mail-to-mail. I've always been eskeptical on New Age literature or Inner Child books, and I still am, as The Invitation is a true, honest work on self-knowing and sharing. Oriah Mountain Dreamer doesn't give obvious advices on General Issues, but her own _often painful experience of life, love and creativity.
