User Reviews about A Conscious Person's Guide to Relationships

I read this book over 20 years ago, and even then, with my "limited" awareness, I was truly fascinated, especially with the true meaning of
"I love you", which blew me away!Eventually, I lent it to someone and it was never returned! Now that I've found it again, yippeee... I'm not letting it go! I will share it with others in person, and encourage
them to purchase their own. After 20 years, the Truths presented here are
even more powerful. It's wonderful, simple, and when one truly understands, it is ultimately liberating! GET THIS BOOK!!! -- Wonderful and Liberating

I read this book in the late 1980's and it still influences my life in a very positive way. Therefore I was amazed that no one had yet reviewed this book on Amazon. Although I have never done a review on Amazon, I just had to do it, even though my review is based on having read the book about twenty years ago.

One good thing about the book is it doesn't bombard you with several lists of things you will ultimately forget, which is my main complaint about the same author's book, "Handbook to Higher Consciousness."

The main concept presented is a very simple reduction of the central concept of Buddhism, done in a very Western way and without ever alluding to Buddhism or religiion. Because of it's simplicity, a person can retain it's lesson and easily rememeber to apply it to one's life, which often is not the case with many self-help books. It reminds me of another great book whose concepts are easy to remember and apply: Susan Jeffers's "Feel the Fear and Do It Anyway." Another great book in this category is Richard Carlson's "You Can Be Happy"--although it presents 5 principles, a couple of them are essential and easily remembered.

So I'll end this review by simply saying: READ THIS BOOK. It's easily applied wisdom can enrich your life immensely.
