I then went on to read the first two books in the series, Living with Joy and Personal Power Through Awareness. Surprisingly there is no duplication of information. Orin's ideas remain clear, concise and eminently practical. An astonishing array of life situations are exposed and opened to light with a compassionate understanding of the human condition. Orin's suggestions are laced with examples and stories that help the reader see how they work. Each chapter is followed by worksheets and meditations so the lessons can be immediately put into practice.
The meditations help to open pathways for the teachings to be absorbed. The teachings, in turn, augment the meditation experience so together they work to bring about change.
I found that the writing always seemed new, which to me, is a sure sign of spiritual depth. When I reread sections weeks later they seemed quite different. Of course, they were the same; it was I who had changed. Some teachings that had seemed difficult were now obvious and I realized how powerful many of the exercises had been. It is not that the information was new, only that it had been presented with a simplicity that allowed it to be grasped at many different levels.
It is this very simplicity combined with unerring guidance to the highest good that make the Earth Life Series a powerful light along whichever path of growth you choose." (Body Mind Spirit magazine, October 1989)
"Spiritual Growth is a way of looking at life, of getting in touch with what Roman calls your higher self. This higher self is within us all, Roman believes, waiting to be tapped with some practice. Roman shows us how. This is a positive book, one that takes the golden rule and expands it way beyond personal relationships.
Spiritual Growth seeks to strip us of blinders, to see good even in those we don't like, to find love within us, to use the power of enveloping ourselves in light and then transmitting that light out to someone we want to reach. It's a spiritual book, but not kooky in the sense that it asks us to go into a lotus position or climb some mountain to find nirvana. Roman is a practical spiritualist, saying to the reader to stop in the middle of a trying day and take a deep breath, to reach inside to find a direction. The mind is a wonderful storehouse of energy, Roman believes, just waiting to be unleashed for our personal benefit.
But Roman doesn't believe that we should just hold all of this spirituality inside. Looking outward to find good in everything that we do, Roman writes, is the way to manifest positive beliefs that heighten your outlook on life."(The Tribune, Colorado Press) -- Reviews

By
This review is from: Spiritual Growth: Being Your Higher Self (Paperback)
Until two years ago I was not aware that there is such a thing as the higher self. Then I met a teacher who taught me:There is a you that existed long before the you that you know now When you were born you were as one with this you Which is the perfect you This part of you is the higher and wiser part of you You were separated as you grew As your ego developed you lost touch with this part of you As you developed the beliefs that you thought would sustain you in this material world You lost sight of this you who remained constant and unchanged Perhaps you did not know this you still existed Instead you struggled and suffered in this world You lost sight of your higher purpose, Your fears prevented you living your dreams If you could be the you that you always wanted to be this is the you you would be This part of you has many names, the authentic self or the higher self, and is perfect, perfect physique, perfect health perfect love, free of all your imperfections Part of your mission on earth is to reconnect with your higher self so you can realise your higher purpose. Imagine meeting your higher self and then merging with that energy, and reclaiming that part of you. Your higher self will guide you with unconditional love and wisdom as you follow the higher path. As you do this, you feel an increase in energy, perhaps some tingling as your vibration naturally increases. This book will guide you with easy to follow visualizations, wisdom, insights, and instruction. Enjoy the journey. If you find this review helpful, please click yes.

"A great change is coming",
By chad steingraber (Lake Dallas, TX) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Spiritual Growth: Being Your Higher Self (Paperback)
I first came across one of Sanaya Roman's books back in the mid-90's and I remember clearly the first part of the book said, once you begin reading this book, you will never forget it, because it will change your life forever. 'Spiritual Growth', and all her books give you the profound knowledge that everyone already knows, but just needs to remember. These books offer the guidelines to the human mind, body and spirit without the cloud of fear, guilt and submission that religions require. Everything about your life is a choice, and everything in your life is a reflection of you, that you have brought to yourself. Understanding this energy element is the key to taking control of your own life, which is real internal power. Knowing that problems in your life are challenges YOU have created to enable your growth, and if you don't learn from that lesson, you will be stuck in that loop until you do so. By the way, this is not a New Age religion book nor am I a New Ager, this is a book about energy and our place within that energy. Once you have placed yourself in a religion, you have imprisioned and limited your growth as a spiritual being. If someone asks you what you believe in, the answer is simple...."Energy" After you have read the entire series from Sanaya Roman, you are then ready to take on David Icke and his book "Children Of The Matrix", who will expand your spiritual consciousness to its breaking point. Remember your true self and realize the only real truth is love, everything else is an illusion.

A Wonderful Tool for Spiritual Development!,
By Jenny Cohen "Jenny Cohen" (La Jolla, CA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Spiritual Growth: Being Your Higher Self (Paperback)
This is a great book for anyone who is on a spiritual path and desires more information about spiritual growth. Sanaya's guide Orin walks the reader through various changes in consciousness he or she may be experiencing, and illustrates how it relates to improving one's life. There are also excellent processes in the book to make your life go more smoothly (for example, sending light to a situation for healing and resolution). This book has helped me to better understand some of the changes and experiences I have had as I have followed my higher self's guidance in life. It has also given me tools to get through some seemingly challenging lessons. There are helpful meditations throughout the book which help you connect with higher realms for clarity, assistance, joy, and guidance. A very interesting book for those interested in spiritual growth!
