To listen to a born again .... born again !
It's a book that's nice to read: 1. easy language, 2. practical conversation and connections, 3. he speaks with no authority of any kind, 4. the author comes across as "extra ordinary" (mind you, not special :), 5. clears a lot of stuff from the point of inputs (from your parents ie. from one's childhood to getting conditioned as we speak, 6. makes distinctions between tradition that tells us eg.

Must-read for any adult
Èxcellent book, no mincing of words. Anthony DeMello speaks to the point and his wisdom can be applied to any situation. Also, the language is simple. The book is not a long one, but it took me a long time to read, because after every chapter, one is left thinking and reflecting. I started hightlighting text, but almost every statement can be highlighted. Whether you are conservative or liberal, you will find value in this book.

A practical and philosophical approach to enlightenment
Must read for those seeking spiritual answers. This is a hard book to read as it speaks directly to the self and to the soul but Anthony makes it all seem easy.

After having read all of the positive reviews before buying this book, I was looking forward to an advanced book that would give me another step up in my lifelong spritual and psychological journey. Nearly all of the reviewers reported that this was a 'life changing' book or that it would be read on an annual basis in order to learn its enclosed teachings. And, admittedly, such would have been the case for myself if I had initially read this book a number of decades ago. These teachings are no longer that; teachings. They became simply a way of life nearly thirty years ago. To me this has been how I have lived for most of my adult years and, being so, I can state that if you do put these ideals into practice, yes, you will lead a life of awareness and an ever closer feeling of being in tune with life itself. Yes, you will become quite different from those around you and the things you have in common with others will become less and less. Aloneness will be something that is treasured and no longer feared. Tasks and activities will be done for the joy of doing them and not as a means of receiving accolades from others. Life, regardless of your social standing, will have joy contained in it. You will no longer base your sense of worth on the opinions of others but, rather, rely solely on your inner spirit for the value and worth you have about yourself. And, when in doubt about what to do in any given situation, always do the 'hard thing'. It is only by doing this do we grow as a person and come to understand ourselves more. The 'easy way' is what you have done in the past and if you wish to grow, you must do the thing that is different, the thing that is hard. The author clearly states that one must get out of one own's personal prejudices, one own's cultural brain-washed ideas and one own's family taught traditions and shortcomings. Each one of us has all of the answers of life locked up inside of us and it only takes the energy necessary to unlearn all the useless trivia that we have been burdened with and to simply start all over again. It really is that simple! God never meant it to be hard. We are the ones who have made it so.

This book is filled with awesome reminders of daily life, on consciousness, perception, behaviourism, mindfulness. I really love this book. Many AHA! moments as I read through, and the humour and some sarcasm is always appreciated, especially in spiritual books :) light-hearted and awakening.

This is what you could call, a life changing book. The best book I have ever read, the lessons are just unbelievably powerful, the principles, astonishing ! You can't just read it one time, you need to read it again and again and again and again till you become aware of yourself, till you notice that "you" is not you, that you are something else, that we are part of something bigger than ourselves. Masterpiece !
