LAWS OF THE
MASTER
by STEVE MCCARDELL
Gold Dragon
Publishing
$9.95 (softcover)
reviewed by Vincent
Cole
author, The Next Step in Evolution
Great metaphysical books have one thing in common:
they have the ability to take readers out of the mundane and
transport them into another realm, another level of understanding,
someplace deep within where the soul listens and is nurtured.
Laws of the Master beckons the reader to a quiet place
of learning, a place where the message is contemplated and where
truth is revealed. Every word in this book is an invitation,
a call to deeper understanding.

THE PATH OF
RETURN
The Light of Parashakti
by JAYA SARADA
Grace Foundation
$16.95 (softcover)
reviewed by Prema Rose
The Path of Return
guides its readers to understand the anatomy of the soul by learning
about the etheric, emotional, and mental planes. It is a journey
in consciousness, teaching that we are eternal beings with veils,
or sheaths, that must be released in order to return to the sacred
presence of being. The book is a discussion on how to find freedom
from limitations that bind us to our personality consciousness.
It guides us to meet our true nature, which is realized when
we let go of our conditioned mind and emotions, offering the
suggestion that life is an opportunity to become awakened to
all that we are now as well as to the unlimited aspects of our
eternal and divine nature.

THE CORPORATE
SHAMAN
A Business Fable
by RICHARD WHITELEY
HarperCollins
$19.95 (hardcover)
reviewed by Margaret
Doyle
The excitement and gratification of work,
indivisible from the success of an enterprise, depends upon the
spirit of the people involved, not the "bottom line"
of profits realized. Through the methods of the shaman (the Siberian
word means "one who sees in the dark"), this vitality
and success of a business corporation can be rediscovered, and
that is the message of The Corporate Shaman.
Whiteley writes The Corporate
Shaman like a novel with a detective-style plot. Will the
fictive companys hero realize his fatal flaw of neglecting
his people in favor of profits? Will the loyal lieutenants, his
department heads, prevail in the face of the dastardly usurper,
the accountant Frank Farratt? (Incidentally, the naming of characters
in this fable is a clever word exercise: the companys chief
executive is Leon King; his Human Resources manager, who risks
her career at PRIMETEC by telling the truth, is Helen Singer;
the conservative head of operations who dares to take a new direction
is Mark Steed.)

EMISSARY OF
LOVE
The Psychic Children Speak to the World
by JAMES TWYMAN
Hampton Roads
$15.95 (softcover)
reviewed by Arlene Arnold
Emissary of Love pulls us into a world of strange happenings, intrigue,
and extraordinary events. Though this novel is based on his experiences,
James Twyman admits that some of the characters and some twists
and turns of the story are fictional. However, the message and
Twymans experiences with the psychic children are real.
Around the world, and especially
in places like Bulgaria, Russia, and China, children are being
born with seemingly extraordinary psychic gifts that come at
birth and do not disappear. The children do not have to go through
rigorous training to claim these gifts, though in some cases
they need guidance in how to use them with love. We who are awed
by the gifts are then told by these children that the gifts are
not what matter. In slightly different ways of sharing the message,
these children show us what is important by calling us to answer
the following question: "How would you act if you realized
that you were an Emissary of Love right now?" This is followed
by a mandate to "Begin."
